Join Christina Handley and Laura Cotterman and photograph horses, nature and farm scenes in beautiful locations.

Learn to take magical pictures of horses! Photoshop is an invaluable tool but the best photography is made in the camera. We will teach you our secret tips and tricks for getting awesome images right out of your camera. We are going to teach you how to think outside the box, see the shot, use the light and learn how to capture it with your camera.

Join us and get excited about your photography on a whole new level! You will have fun and learn to take unique and striking images. Each day we will have outstanding opportunities to photograph nature, horses and farm scenes.

The program is informal with plenty of shooting on location. We are all about hands on shooting, working together one-on-one in the field, seeing the results and learning as you go. Our emphasis is on equine photography for digital photographers.
