Hoopers Island Photography Workshops - October 2019

Scenes from four photography workshops that I hosted in October of 2019 out of Hoopers Island, Maryland. Three of the workshops were centered around photography while the fourth workshop with high school students from The Gunston School were focused on exploring the islands of the Chesapeake Bay in Dorchester and Somerset counties.

I am offering only one photography workshop in 2020 out of Hoopers Island due to a heavy workload with the completion of my forthcoming book, Island Life. Click on the link below for more information on the workshop or to reserve a space on the trip.
