Workshops There is a limit of 12 people per workshop and a minimum of 4 people. If a workshop fills up, we will update this web site to reflect this ASAP. However, if you do sign up for a workshop after it is full, you will be given the option of signing up for a different workshop or getting a full refund. If fewer than four people sign up to a workshop, the instructor will have the option to cancel the workshop. If he chooses to cancel it, particpants will be able to sign up for another workshop or get a full refund. Can someone attend two workshops? If you want to attend two workshops on Sunday - one in the morning and one in the afternoon - this can probably be arranged. However, just one workshop can be very tiring, so two workshops might be too much for all but the most energetic people. To attend two, it will cost an extra $150 per person. You will likely have to drive yourself and perhaps leave early from the morning workshop. If you want to do this, please Contact Grant, and he will confirm with the instructors that this will work. Non-photographer friends Participants can not bring friends or family members who are not photographers to the classroom or field sessions unless they also pay the full fees to participate. Weather & Adverse Conditions If the weather is poor or there are any other factors, such as road closures, that prevent instructors from holding a field shoot at a specified location, the instructors will make their best effort to hold the workshops at an alternate location or to provide instructional sessions at an indoor or sheltered location. No refunds will be made for workshops that are altered. Additional Information Additional information will be sent prior to the workshop containing advice on what to bring, directions, etc.
