The workshop I took was with Rodney Smith -black and white portraits- and relating with the students and Rodney Smith- touched me so deeply. The outcomes of that workshop has been a constant inspiration to always move forward and embrace change. I had many accomplishments and learnings along the way since then...and I always learn from my accomplishments more so than my opportunities...and one of the lastest accomplishments ... I won a Graphis Gold Award and I will be published in the 2010 Graphis Photo Annual...I am embracing this award and I see this as a result of a wonderful photographic journey.

While there I was able to hang out with great photographers like David Alan Harvey who is always willing to look at your work or go out for a beer and talk shop. The workshops are great because you are just totally submerged in all things photography for the week.

The first one was with a car shooter and all about advertising production. It was a class for pro shooters and I still refer to my notes from this class ten plus years on. It was worth every penny. The second class I attended was a Photoshop class made up of a mix of designers, professionals photographers and semi-pro shooters. The instructor was good but seemed to be more concerned about showing off upcoming Adobe software then getting into the nuts and bolts of what the class was suppose to be concentrating on. The class got together and asked the instructor to refrain from showing off the new software and to focus on what each of us needed. Which he did. I understand that this instructor is no longer teaching at Santa Fe. Reid is a class act and when ever I have had a question he writes back or we have spoken on the phone. There is one class that I tried to attend for years on book design and it is always full with a wait list of ten people. I hope he can add similar classes in the future. The natural tie-in with Outside sounds like a win-win. Fantastic photographers plus beautiful locations. I have attended two workshops at Santa Fe.

Didn't know that top class guys like Albert Watson, Nadav Kander, Mark Seliger, David Alan Harvey (to pick a few) do workshops. Who's next ? LaChapelle, Demarchelier, Beard ... ? :-) However, well done and congrats for the 20th anniversary. Cheers, Reini Really impressive list of teachers.

Many student in the class are good serious amateurs that are interested in being inspired and taking photos. Santa Fe provides a great place to shoot and play to reconnect with your artistic side. I had an inspirational seminar with Jay Maisel there years ago, yet when I returned to follow-up with working photographer Arthur Meyerson I was more interested in the production and marketing side of making photos than my classmates. Arthur was great at answering my questions, but I needed to be respectful that I was 1 in 12 students in the class. I was the only person that would have been willing to talk for 10 minutes on how Arthur planned and executed his shot of the McDonald's golden arches towering over a dawn cloud bank. Reid can tell you if the instructor will attract more pros or civilians. For working pros check-in with Reid on the make-up of the class before going.
