Field Shoots
Saturday morning is all about getting out to shoot! There are plenty of locations in the area with great fodder for photos, and we are happy to offer advice on the best places to go for the types of images you’d like to create. Alternatively, ticketed attendees may register for one of the speaker-led opportunities below for an additional fee.
Autumn Waterfalls
With Jennifer King
Saturday, October 24 · Spend the morning with Jennifer along a waterway featuring photogenic waterfalls, intimate stream scenes and an old mill. This is the perfect opportunity to see how Jennifer visualizes the scene and translates it into a pleasing composition.
Eastatoe Falls
with Colleen Miniuk
Saturday, October 24 · We are thrilled to offer this unique opportunity to photograph one of North Carolina’s most stunning waterfalls—one of the two that Kevin considers the best in the state for photography. The legendary Eastatoe Falls is closed to the public, but Photo Fest has been granted special permission to visit. Colleen will be with you during the entire session, helping you make the best photos possible of this striking waterfall. To make it even more rewarding, a portion of the proceeds will be donated to Waterfall Keepers of North Carolina, a nonprofit organization dedicated to the waterfalls of the state.
Autumn Stream Walk
with Tony Sweet
Saturday, October 24 · Join Tony for an intimate excursion photographing fall color scenes, macro/close-ups, long exposures on the stream, creative camera movement, and lots of personal interaction to help you to get the images you imagine. Be sure to bring your big camera, your mobile phone camera, a tripod and your questions.
