Lori Kincaid Photography: Workshops and Instruction

NEW! PHOTOGRAPHY WORKSHOPS AT MAX PATCH

Lori is now offering a series of photography workshops in her own backyard: the Max Patch area of Pisgah National Forest. Her workshops are designed for photographers at all levels and include both classroom and field instruction in using light, composition, and technique to make beautiful nature photographs of the rich, diverse, and often chaotic environment of the Southern Appalachians.

Max Patch has some of the most spectacular scenery found anywhere in the mountains of North Carolina and Tennessee, with rare unobstructed vistas, stunning wildflower displays, and brilliant fall foliage. Lori has lived in and explored the Max Patch environs for more than ten years and brings to her workshops unparalleled knowledge of the area coupled with extensive teaching experience in a workshop environment.

You will arrive on-site on Thursday afternoon and immerse yourself in photography and fun until departing on Sunday morning. Lori's vacation rental, situated in the heart of the Max Patch area, will be your base of operations, where you can photograph star trails from the deck or kick back in the hot tub after an exhilarating day in the field.

Tuition: $495, includes instruction, food and lodging.

Non-photographer spouses/companions are welcome at a fee of $395 (includes food and lodging).

For a detailed itinerary or to register for these workshops, please contact Lori Kincaid Photography.

Spring Workshop, April 24 to 27, 2008. Spring wildflower displays in the Max Patch area are some of the most extensive and diverse found anywhere in the Southern Appalachians. At elevations ranging from about 1900 ft in Harmon Den to more than 4600 ft atop Max Patch Mountain, Lori will take you to special locations known only to a few where you can photograph blankets of large-flowered trillium, dramatic vistas, and closeups of untold species of flora. Easy to moderate hiking is required. The Spring Workshop is full. Please join us in the fall or in 2009.

Fall Workshop, October 16 to 19, 2008. Max Patch is known for its spectacular fall foliage and this workshop is timed to hit the traditional peak. You'll photograph grand vistas from atop Max Patch Mountain and in Lori's literal backyard, where she has made many of her published photographs, or you may take to the woods to capture the intimate landscape found deep in the forest and along little-known creeks and streams. Easy to moderate hiking is required.
