Creative EyeTM Photography Workshops
Learning Adventures & Outings
Hands-on Learning & Guidance
Our photography learning adventures take what we teach in the classroom into the real world.
And, unlike other photography outings that primarily revolve around fun and camaraderie, our
learning adventures are also about learning.
During each outing, Mike visits each student to give personal attemtion and guidance.
And often, there is a follow up session so you can show off your photos and receive valuable feedback
on your work.
We offer all kinds of learning adventures and we're open to your suggestions.
Of course, we will explore nature locations, but will also be offering other
choices around the Chicago, Illinois region.
NOTE: These outings are planned several months in advance based on the best available
knowledge and history, but there is no way to tell what the conditions will
actually be like. So, we'll be going no matter what and we'll
definitely make the most of it!
