Colorado Photography Festival ™ The 2nd Annual Colorado Photography Festival will be held from August 10-16, 2012. Eight of the nation's premier photographers will give instruction in the classroom and in the field on numerous aspects of professional photography, from capturing your images to optimizing them in Lightroom. This year's instructors are Marc Muench, Grant Collier, Colby Brown, Mark S Johnson, Stephen G Weaver, Russ Burden, Glenn Randall, Dan Ballard, and Charles Zimmerman. The indoor classes at this festival will take place at the Auraria campus in downtown Denver. On Saturday, August 11, five of the instructors will give talks on a different theme related to photography. On Sunday, each instructor will lead a workshop with up to 12 participants at one of the many scenic locations around Denver. Participants who sign up early will have their choice of any of the eight workshops. There will also be optional classes people can join on Friday and on Monday thru Thursday. On Friday, attorney and photographer Charles Zimmerman will give a seminar on the business of photography. On Monday, Marc Muench will offer a class on Adobe Lightroom. Marc will also lead a 3-day field workshop from Tuesday to Thursday in Rocky Mountain National Park. This festival is open to photographers of all skill levels. The cost of this festival is $275 for the entire weekend. This payment will let you attend all of the presentations by the instructors on Saturday, and you can attend a field workshop of your choice on Sunday. Everyone who signs up to the weekend session will have the option of attending any of the additional classes on the weekdays for an extra charge. We will arrange for participants to receive discounts on lodging at the nearby Curtis Hotel, and all participants will receive a free copy of Grant Collier's book "Colorado's San Juan Mountains." We also plan to raffle off several photography items.
