Concert Photography Workshop in November!

Next month my wife Wendy Fopeano and I will be teaching a concert photography workshop at Denver's premiere jazz club, Dazzle! The workshop is sponsored by The Gift of Jazz. For more information and to register, see:

Jazz Concert Photography Workshop

The workshop will take place on two consecutive Saturday mornings - November 13 and 20 - with an evening session on Tuesday, November 16 photographing a live band in performance.

Some of the topics Wendy and I expect to cover include selection of equipment, technique and the unique demands of concert photography, composition, etiquette, capturing the spirit of the performance, processing, and organization. We are extremely excited by this, and hope to see the class fill up quickly!

This sounds like an amazing opportunity for anyone interested in concert and jazz photography. Learning directly in a live performance setting makes such a big difference, especially with experienced instructors guiding the process. Covering everything from equipment and technique to etiquette and capturing emotion feels very well thought out. I also like that there is a structured flow to the sessions, almost like a table of contents dissertation that takes participants step by step through the craft. Photographing a live band at a premier venue adds real value and makes the experience even more exciting and practical.
