Group workshops provide full immersion into a fun, creative collective learning experience. Participants receive individual coaching. You’ll also benefit from sharing ideas, inspiration and knowledge with other experienced artists. My multi-day workshops offer the opportunity to work in desirable locations to learn while shooting, and gain important insights through group photo reviews. .

Independent learning with me allows us to fully customize the experience to fit your learning style, pace, and any other specific needs. We have the freedom and direct focus to follow the moment, shoot together and review images. We work at my location, in the field or at your home. You can bring current projects or images to work on.

Online learning via Zoom with shared screens in scheduled sessions. Similar to #2 above, we address your specific needs at your convenience, right from your location. Zoom is free, and all you need is my emailed link. Contact me to inquire about price and scheduling sessions. More destination workshops will be listed as soon as they are developed

    David, I really enjoyed your session at Glazers Camera on the 9/10/2022.

    Curios if you have any travel workshops planned. Or something locally in Seattle?

    Not looking for online class, something to shoot myself in.

    • Hi Shashank,
      Sorry I missed your message on my blog! My Blog’s plug-in sent your reader comment alert to the wrong email folder so I had no notification.
      I am planning a November 2023 trip to Varanasi and Delhi. Also Cuba in early December. I am working on a Coastal Oregon and also Coastal Washington workshop but those are still in planning. I also work with people independently, so don’t hesitate to get in touch for that. Best to email me at creativepaddler(at)gmail(dot)com. My phone is: [seattle area code].364.9077

    David:

    I would be interested in learning the techniques used in your photo illustations. I am a fairly decent photographer, have knowledge of my camera and my photoshop skills are probably considered mediocre although I know a little about a lot things. Are any of your upcoming workshops teaching these techniques.

    • David Julian says:

      Merrill,

      Are you ready to learn some Photoshop Illustration with me via remote Shared Desktop?

      I’ve been teaching remotely that way and its working very well.
      We use Skype and shared screens.

      If so, please get in touch.

      thanks, Dave
