Join full-time professional photographer and photography educator Kenneth Wajda in a two-day nature photography workshop in Evergreen Colorado.
Kenneth Wajda’s nature photography workshop gives photographers of all levels the opportunity to peer through a professional's camera and ask questions while learning how he approaches his subject.
The workshop will consist of two 5-hour sessions, 3:00-8:00pm on Saturday and Sunday, June 28-29, 2025.
Any camera will work, even a phone camera, but a DSLR or mirrorless digital camera with additional lenses is ideal. A tripod is recommended.
This is a nature photo shoot combined with an in-class workshop. You will be taking photographs in the field working alongside a professional photographer who will assist you, answer your questions and offer tips. After the photo shoot you will import your photographs into a photo program for review.
