Spring In The Smokies
2024-04-23 - 2024-04-25 | Townsend TN
Join Jack Graham and Bill Fortney for a fantastic Spring In the Smokies photo workshop.
The Great Smoky Mountains is without a doubt one of our greatest and most photographically diverse National Parks.

Please note that although the workshop starts at sunrise on April 23rd, we will meet on the evening of April 22nd for an hour or so to get to know each other, and to go over itineraries, travel, and workshop goals.
All of our workshops will be attended by owners of the Fujifilm “X” System cameras and lenses. The workshops are not, however, dedicated to only Fujifilm “X” camera shooters. All are encouraged to attend!

Eastern Sierra Fall Colors
2024-10-17 - 2024-10-20 | Eastern Sierra, Lone Pine, CA, United States
Please consider coming to the beautiful Eastern Sierra in October 2023, to experience the majesty of the fall color and the astonishing landscape of the area. This will be my 27th year conducting my workshop in this location and after years of experience, I know where to go. We’ll visit some of the well-known, iconic places, as well as many places off the beaten path. I will be co-leading this workshop with John Pedersen who is also highly knowledgeable of the area and how to extract the most from it photographically.
If I had one place to photograph it would be here. We’ll see Mono Lake, the White Mountains, and the town of Bodie, once a booming mining town that went bust. Today it’s a genuine ghost town that’s in very good shape and offers endless photographic possibilities.
We’ll see the oldest living species on the planet—the Ancient Bristlecone Pines, beautiful mountain streams and aspen groves, sure to be in full grandeur when we arrive. This time of the year is the prime time for fall color.
We will meet at 6 pm on October 8th for an hour or so to go over itineraries and workshop goals. The workshop will end at noon on October 12th in Lee Vining, California.
All of our workshops will be attended by owners of the Fujifilm “X” System cameras and lenses. The workshops are not, however, dedicated to only Fujifilm “X” camera shooters. All are encouraged to attend!

Grand Teton National Park in Winter
2024-12-05 - 2024-12-08 | Grand Tetons, Jackson Hole, WY, United States
Nothing says Wyoming like the Teton National Park in winter, located just outside Jackson Hole. At this time of year, the Christmas decorations are up but the crowds haven’t arrived yet and it’s a perfect time for a photo workshop!
Experience the Tetons on this amazing winter photo workshop! We will spend 3 ½ days exploring Teton National Park in winter. The snow-capped mountains of the Grand Teton range will be visible from the famous Snake River locations we’ll photograph from. Plus, much like Yellowstone, wildlife is common – we often see moose, elk, trumpeter swans, buffalo and coyotes. And in the winter, the wildlife is down from the high country and much more active as they forage for food. We will photograph the snow capped mountains of the Tetons range, rustic cabins, meandering creeks and rivers, plus many other fantastic sights. Join us for a stunning winter adventure!
We will base our workshop out of Jackson Wyoming which is just a short distance from the park. We will spend our days photographing the landscapes and winter scenes and hunting for the ideal wildlife images. Plus, we will spend a little time doing image reviews/learning as time and weather permits.
Please note that although the workshop starts at sunrise on November 30th, we will meet in Jackson Hole, WY on the evening of November 29th for an hour or so to go over itineraries, travel, and workshop goals.

Ultimate Desert SW Workshop
2025-04-11 - 2025-04-16 | Monument Valley, United States
Please consider joining us on our Ultimate Desert SW photo workshop to experience the incredible beauty of the desert landscape. In conjunction with John Pedersen, we are offering this workshop for the 20th year, and every year brings us different conditions, light and most of all experiences to last a lifetime.
We strive to provide a richer and more rewarding experience than any other workshop or if you visited on your own and our ultimate desert SW workshop is designed to provide that. Our years of experience, plus our Navajo guides, will ensure that we get to the right places at the right times for the most memorable photographic opportunities. We will visit iconic locations as well as many locations not widely known. Plus, our guides will be able to get us to locations few have access to!
We are adding two additional days to our normal workshop this year to provide you ample time and space to absorb this beautiful area as well as work to craft compelling images. We will have an additional day in the Monument Valley area to explore the icons and lesser known, but equally beautiful areas. After we transition Canyon de Chelley, we will have TWO DAYS in the canyon because this area is more amazing than what we can capture in one day alone.
April is a fantastic time to be in the valley as the foliage is a vibrant green which contrasts against the red rock and sand. The temperatures are milder and there is a good chance for drama in the skies. September is the best time to be in this part of the world — the summer crowds are gone and the temperatures are very comfortable out in the field. Seeing a sunrise from Hunt’s Mesa is simply amazing!!!
Monument Valley is part of the Navajo Nation tribal park, straddling the border of northeastern Arizona and southeastern Utah on the Colorado Plateau. It preserves the Navajo way of life and some of the most striking and recognizable landscapes of sandstone buttes, mesas and spires in the entire Southwest. The area is entirely within the Navajo Indian Reservation near the small Indian town of Goulding, established in 1923 as a trading post, and now has a comprehensive range of visitor services.
Workshop Details
Monument Valley
Our ultimate desert SW workshop starts in Monument Valley Utah. Our base will be at a local hotel which provides all the conveniences we need to stay comfortable for the long days ahead. We will visit several locations in Monument Valley, including areas only accessible if you have a Navajo guide to escort you. We will visit the Totem Pole area, Suns Eye, Ear of the Wind as well as spend time with a Navajo family deep in the valley to photograph their hogan and surroundings.
We will also visit several other locations throughout the valley, photographing at different times of day to capture the essence and spirit of this magical desert landscape.
Hunts Mesa
While in the Monument Valley area, we have a special treat planned for our workshop. We will meet our Navajo Guides and travel from the hotel to the top of Hunts Mesa. We will camp out on top of the Mesa, with everything provided for you! Tents will be set up with cots and blankets for sleeping and that evening we will enjoy a wonderful camp dinner prepared for us. We will photograph the sunset from on top the Mesa and after dinner and the sun goes down, the night sky will erupt with thousands of stars visible making for some outstanding night photography. After a nights rest, we will arise before the sun and get in position to capture sunrise from the top of the Mesa looking down to the desert floor and landscape features. A truly memorable experience! After a prepared breakfast, we will make the drive back to our hotel to regroup and continue photographing the area. The drive is via 4WD vehicles over rough terrain and some say this is the best part of the experience! For a video of the drive, click HERE.
Canyon de Chelley
After Monument Valley, we will travel on our own to Chinle AZ to check in to our next hotel near the canyon. After getting settled, we will spend the remainder of the day photographing at various locations around the area. The next morning, we will meet our guides for an all-day trip in to Canyon de Chelley. We will travel through sacred lands to rarely photographed locations deep inside the canyon. We have specific locations we recommend to photograph such as White House Ruins, but are also always open to the conditions and environment and may visit other more memorable locations within the canyon. Having an exclusive guide who lives here affords us unique access to the canyon as well as an intimate knowledge of the landscape and providing the best vantage points for our photographic goals. The first day in the canyon you will be amazed at the towering rock walls and the vast amount of ruins and petroglyphs and at times it can simply be overwhelming. So, after a night decompressing at our hotel, we will spend a second day deep in the canyon really working to come away with artistic interpretations of our impressions and experiences. One day is simply not enough, that is why we’ve added a second day on this Ultimate Desert SW Workshop!
A box lunch will be provided during our days in the canyon. More details on the itinerary and menu options will be provided after registration.
After the last day in the canyon, we will return to the hotel and the workshop will end. Because it will be late in the day, we recommend to spend the night in Chinle before traveling home.
The price for all Navajo guides, Hunt’s Mesa overnight and location admittance are included.
Preparation and being in the right mindset can help you achieve better results. Before the workshop begins, we will send you several updates so you can better prepare for the conditions and environment. Also, please read this helpful article on how to prepare for one of our photo workshops.
This Ultimate Desert SW workshop is truly an memorable experience. More than just photography, it is guaranteed to be an immersive and varied experience that you will remember for a lifetime.

The Hidden Palouse
2025-06-12 - 2025-06-15 | The Palouse, Washington, Colfax, WA, United States
The Hidden Palouse – Exploring areas beyond the beaten path and capturing the subtlety and nuance of this amazing area
Myself and John Pedersen will once again be offering an amazing workshop in the beautiful Palouse region of Eastern Washington. Jack and I have over 30 years experience leading groups across this landscape and we know the hidden gems of this amazing landscape. For 2025, we will be focusing our vision on the hidden gems of the area, from landscapes, small towns and Americana and abstracts.
Too often people are focused on just a couple of famous locations in the Palouse, Steptoe Butte being one of them. NOTICE: Steptoe Butte will be closed during this time for important repairs to the road and park, however, there is SO MUCH MORE to the Palouse than Steptoe Butte. We will spend time moving beyond the obvious and draw out the subtle nuances of the rolling landscape and the storytelling possible in the various small towns in the area. The rolling hills of wheat, barley, lentils and canola with the addition of spring wildflowers and country roads punctuated with over 100-year-old year old barns lends itself to a photographer’s paradise. The subject matter is endless. The Palouse area is located in Southeastern Washington where the major towns are Pullman, Washington and Moscow, Idaho. We will base our Palouse photo workshop out of the small town of Colfax, which is central to everything we want to photograph. The Palouse is fairly remote. It’s not a tourist destination but during the spring and summer there are usually many photographers.
The Palouse can challenge all photographers to create compelling compositions amidst the rolling hills and country settings. Various shades of greens offset the blue skies with trees dotting the landscapes. It offers such a wide range of photographic subjects and compositional possibilities! Everything from wide angle landscapes, to intimate nature scenes, abstracts and Americana. We will guide you to the best locations in the area and provide as much in-field guidance as you want or need. Our focus will be on the the hidden areas of the Palouse, learning to “see” the area and working to create compelling compositions and capture them in our cameras.
Preparation and being in the right mindset can help you achieve better results. Before the workshop begins, we will send you several updates so you can better prepare for the conditions and environment. Also, please read this helpful article on how to prepare for one of our photo workshops.

WORKSHOP DETAILS
This workshop typically sells out early and often has a waiting list. This is not a physically taxing or strenuous workshop since most locations are on paths or along the roadside, though the days are long in the Palouse.
June is prime time for the rolling fields of different shades of green. The Palouse is a great area to develop photographic skills because light and pattern considerations are incredibly important here. The aim is to make images that portray depth, surprise and drama, while using leading lines, foregrounds and other graphic elements. I will warn you, photography in this area isn’t as easy as you may think, but that also makes it one of the best places to take your skills to the next level. Few people have visit The Palouse which means there are few photographic icons. This also means that personal vision becomes incredibly important.
EXTRA ADDED ATTRACTION (not officially part of our workshop!): We’ll be heading north of Colfax by about 45 minutes on the morning the day before the workshop begins (around 8 am), going up to Sprague, Washington to photograph the old trucks in Dave’s Old Truck Rescue. You are welcome to tag along. I’ll be returning to Colfax around noon. Please let us know if you are joining us. If you are, please arrive in Colfax the day before. There is no extra charge for this excursion.
Thank you for your interest in this workshop. Once you have registered, information about what to bring, such as weather, itinerary locations, etc. will begin to flow to you about 3-4 weeks before the event.

PLEASE NOTE: This workshop is part of the Photograph the Pacific Northwest series, a collaboration between Jack Graham and John Pedersen to highlight the magnificent beauty of the PNW through in-depth workshops at some of the most iconic and beautiful locations.

Bears of Katmai N.P.
2025-09-22 - 2025-09-28 | Katmai, Alaska, Katmai National Park & Preserve, AK, United States
Join us for a once-in-a-lifetime photo workshop photographing the bears of Katmai N.P.. You won’t want to miss this incredible experience photographing grizzly bears in their natural habitat along with other Northern wildlife, all in the beauty of the Fall colors.
We will be assisted by the best guides in the region and go to areas few others ever travel to. This wilderness area is sparsely populated. The bears rule the land here and humans have adapted to respect the bears for what they are. As a result, the bears have little fear of humans since they are the kings in this wilderness. We will be in the ultimate location for the amazing experience of photographing these marvelous animals as they dive into the ocean and rivers to catch plentiful sockeye salmon. In addition to the mighty grizzly bears, we have the chance to see wolves hunting and foraging as well as possible side trips to see walrus colonies. This really is the trip to photograph the Ultimate Alaskan Bears.
We will photograph the bears of Katmai N.P. on the inland streams and tundra accessed via floatplane each day. We may also have the chance to photograph the bears at the famous Brooks Falls, where the bears wait on top of the falls for the salmon to launch themselves over the falls.
We will stay in a wonderful lodge along Lake Iliamna and enjoy home cooked meals for breakfast and dinner. Lunches will be provided to us each day to eat in the field. The itinerary for each day will be specifically catered to us and our photographic priorities and we will be flown into the Alaskan wilderness by float plane (we have the best and most experienced pilots with us) and guided to the best locations. Note: the ability to fly and which locations are accessible are weather dependent and during the Fall there is more likelihood for weather delays.
Here is the video from our 2022 workshop

We are limiting this trip to a small group of attendees. Accommodations are double occupancy only in private cabins. Breakfast and dinner is shared at the lodge (the food is great!). Box lunches are provided to us when we are in the field. If the workshop appears sold out on the website, please contact us to inquire about attending.
Each evening we’ll download our images and provide comprehensive discussions regarding composition, seeing images and the formulation of artful photography. In addition to getting you to the right locations, we’ll make sure your photographic skills are developed as well. While at our locations, we’ll help you both technically, developing proper field techniques and artistically, to help bring out your best creative photography.
Upon registration you’ll receive a complete PDF file containing everything you need to know concerning lodging, transportation, etc. for this once in a lifetime experience.
Travel to Iliamna and any lodging before or after the workshop are the responsibility of the attendee. All lodging, meals and transportation during the workshop are included in the workshop cost.
ACTIVITY LEVEL: Moderate. The activity level for this workshop is moderate with possible field locations that may involve hiking over uneven ground to the photography location or riding on rafts through gentle rivers amongst the bears, climbing in and out of the boats. Waders and Boots are provided and included in the workshop cost. Please be aware of this activity level before registering. If you have questions regarding your ability to be part of this experience in Alaska, please contact my office.

Springtime In The Palouse Photo Workshop
2026-06-05 - 2026-06-08 | The Palouse, Washington, Colfax, WA, United States
Thank you for your interest and consideration in our photography workshop in the beautiful Palouse region of Eastern Washington.
Each season brings different photographic opportunities. Most photographers visit the Palouse from mid-May through September. June is primetime for the lush greens that are so dominant in this area. In the springtime, endless, rolling fields of different shades of green abound. Early to late June the patterns of the green fields along with the red barns make for a truly remarkable photographic experience.

The Palouse region offers great locations to work on photographic skills. Unlike many of our National Parks, there are few if any “icons” here. During our 3-day photo workshop, we will be stressing slowing down and simplifying our compositions. Simplicity, if not minimalism, often creates powerful images, especially in this location.

Spring In The Palouse Photo Workshop
2027-06-07 - 2027-06-10 | The Palouse, Washington, Colfax, WA, United States
JoinmeJoin me for my Spring in the Palouse Photo Workshop. Experience the breathtaking beauty of Washington’s Palouse at its absolute peak during my June 7–10, 2027 photography workshop. Early June is the premier time to photograph this remarkable landscape, when rolling hills of lush green wheatfields are at their prime. The beautifully brilliant yellow canola fields add to the beauty and creates one of North America’s most spectacular agricultural landscapes. This will be my 24th year leading workshops in the Palouse, giving you the advantage of photographing not only the iconic viewpoints but also many hidden gems and lesser-known locations that most photographers never experience. To provide the highest quality instruction, we are limiting this workshop to just five participants, ensuring plenty of personalized, one-on-one guidance in the field to help you improve both your photographic vision and technical skills. If you’ve always wanted to photograph the Palouse at its finest while learning in a relaxed, small-group setting, please consider joining us in June of 2027.

More details regarding travel, what to bring, and accommodation will be sent to you after registration. Accommodation is not included in the workshop cost. Click here if you want to know what we’ll be working on, and click here for general information on what to bring.

Grizzly Bears of Katmai National Park
2028-09-14 - 2028-09-20 | Katmai, Alaska, Katmai National Park & Preserve, AK, United States
Join us for a once-in-a-lifetime photo workshop photographing the grizzly bears of Katmai National Park. You won’t want to miss this incredible experience photographing grizzly bears in their natural habitat along with other Northern wildlife, all in the beauty of the Fall colors.
If photographing wild brown bears in their natural habitat is on your photography bucket list, this is the experience for which you’ve been waiting for. We are excited to announce another unforgettable journey to Southeast Alaska, where we’ll spend six days and six nights immersed in one of the world’s greatest wildlife photography destinations. This is far more than a typical Alaska bear photography trip. It is an exclusive, immersive adventure designed to maximize your opportunities for extraordinary images while enjoying exceptional comfort and safety.
Each day, we’ll fly via floatplane into Katmai National Park, then travel by inflatable raft along small streams through Alaska’s bear country. As we drift past grizzly bears fishing for salmon, we’ll stop whenever a great photo opportunity appears. Lunch is provided, and we’ll pause along the river to eat, photograph, or simply relax in the stunning wilderness. At day’s end, we’ll return by plane to the lodge for excellent food, a warm bed, and time to share stories from the day’s adventure. Bears may come quite close, offering an unforgettable up-close experience, but they are far more interested in salmon than in people. Our guides will navigate the rafts and help keep us safe in this wild landscape. Weather and conditions permitting, we may also fly to the world-famous Brooks Camp to photograph bears fishing at the waterfall and nearby areas. We may even have the chance to visit Dick Proenneke’s cabin at Twin Lakes—an inspiring glimpse into how he lived alone in the wilderness for many years.
Why September?
We intentionally schedule this expedition in mid-September for one simple reason: it is one of the most spectacular times of the year in Alaska. The rivers and streams are alive with salmon, and the brown bears are actively feeding as they prepare for the long winter ahead. This creates incredible wildlife activity and unparalleled photographic opportunities. Adding to the magic, Alaska’s brilliant autumn colors transform the landscape into a stunning backdrop of gold, orange, and crimson. Cooler conditions are common this time of year, along with the chance for interesting weather patterns, which adds to the excitement and drama of the experience.
A Private Lodge in the Heart of Bear Country
Our home for the week is a private luxury lodge ideally situated between Katmai National Park and Lake Clark National Park. Every detail has been carefully chosen to provide an exceptional experience while maintaining the highest safety standards. Each morning, we board bush planes and head directly to the locations offering the best photographic opportunities. With access to more than 30,000 square miles of wilderness—including Katmai National Park, Lake Clark National Park, and the Bristol Bay Watershed—we can go wherever the wildlife activity is at its peak. On previous trips, we experienced multiple days with more than 120 bears observed in a single day. Encounters on this scale are simply breathtaking.
Photograph Bears Up Close
Collaborating with experienced professional guides, we’ll travel by raft along remote rivers where bears gather to feed on salmon. These stable platforms provide outstanding photographic angles while allowing us to safely observe and photograph natural bear behavior. When conditions are favorable, we may also photograph from select locations on land. Conditions permitting, we will visit and photograph the iconic Brooks Falls within Katmai National Park.
Our unique advantage is flexibility. Unlike many operations, our aircraft remain with us throughout the day. This allows us to relocate quickly if the bear activity shifts, ensuring you spend less time waiting and more time photographing wildlife.
Luxury After The Adventure
After an incredible day in the field, you’ll return to our comfortable private lodge to relax, share stories, review images and enjoy a gourmet four-course dinner. We stay in cabins near the main lodge and each cabin is double occupancy.
Upon registration you’ll receive a complete PDF file containing everything you need to know concerning lodging, transportation, etc. for this once in a lifetime experience.
Activity Level
The activity level for this trip is Moderate. This means that you will need to be able to walk over uneven terrain or through shallow creeks, climb in to and out of float planes, plus in and out of rubber rafts.
How Much Does It Cost?
This trip is being announced well in advance of final pricing being established. Based on prior trips and the rising costs, we can estimate that the final workshop cost will be in the range of $10k-$11k per person. This does not include airfare to Iliamna or lodging/meals before or after the workshop.
How Do I Sign Up
Because we do not have final pricing yet, we are taking reservations via email from folks who are interested in going. No financial commitment is expected at the time of initial registration. Click the button below to send an email to be on the list!
