Explore autumn landscapes, turquoise lakes and dramatic mountain scenery in the heart of the Canadian Rockies

The Canadian Rockies are home to some of the most spectacular landscapes in North America—a place where jagged mountain peaks rise above turquoise glacial waters and breathtaking views await around every corner.

Join me for an inspiring autumn photography workshop designed to help you explore your creativity, strengthen your skills, and connect more deeply with the natural world. Together, we’ll photograph the Rockies during one of their most beautiful seasons, when golden foliage adds warmth and color to a landscape of dramatic canyons, peaceful lakes, rushing rivers, and rugged mountain scenery.

We’ll be based in the mountain village of Lake Louise, ideally situated for exploring photographic locations throughout Banff, Yoho, and Kootenay national parks. Each day will bring new opportunities to work with changing light, refine your compositions, and capture the character and grandeur of this remarkable region.

With personalized guidance in the field and a relaxed, supportive atmosphere, you’ll have the freedom to slow down, observe, and create images that reflect your own vision. More than a photography workshop, this is an opportunity to immerse yourself in the peaceful beauty of the Canadian Rockies, share the experience with fellow photographers, and return home feeling inspired—with stronger skills, renewed confidence, and a meaningful collection of images.

I still remember what it was like to learn photography, and I remember the struggles. Why is an f-stop also called aperture? Why is exposure time also your shutter speed? Interchangeable words for the same photographic term can be confusing, not to mention frustrating when all you want to do is become a good photographer. I am sensitive to this and the insecurity it creates in your photographic journey. I’ve spent years refining how I teach photography—making both the technical and creative aspects easier to understand while creating a supportive environment where photographers can learn, experiment, and grow.

For more than 14 years, I have photographed and taught in landscapes I know intimately. Knowing these locations allows me to do more than guide you to a beautiful view. I can help you anticipate the light, recognize creative possibilities, and slow down long enough to make thoughtful photographs that feel like your own.

Since 1994, I have worked as an art director, creative director, and director of photography. These roles taught me how ideas develop, how individual elements come together to strengthen an image, and how to guide someone toward a creative solution without taking away their own voice. That experience continues to shape the way I teach today. I don’t want to tell you what to photograph—I want to help you recognize what draws you to a scene and express it in a way that feels personal to you.
