Yukon Fine-Art Winter and Minimalism Photography Workshop -- WHITEHORSE (YUKON) -- October 18-22, 2023
Note: Only 3 seats left for 2023 workshop
Join Photographers Oliver Du Tre and Marc Koegel for this unique workshop, offered for the 5th time in Whitehorse, Yukon (Canada).
This one-of-a-kind workshop will teach you how to make stunning fine-art landscape photographs in the Yukon using a minimalist mindset for composition and creative camera techniques such as long-exposures.
For the first time, we have adjusted the timing of the workshop to take advantedge of early winter and snow. Snow tansforms the landscape, creating many exciting photographic opportunities. And being early in winter, will keep us comfortable as temperatures won't be as low as later on during winter.
The Yukon environment and landscape is very unique and this workshop will have you out shooting at various locations, from secluded lakes, majestic mountain ranges, to gold rush era (ghost) towns and more!
Capture rare images that only this environment and landscape can deliver!
