HOW MUCH PHOTOGRAPHY EXPERIENCE DO I NEED?
Workshops are appropriate for both beginners and advanced photographers.
WHAT TYPE OF EQUPMENT DO I NEED TO BRING FOR SHOOTING DIGITAL IMAGES?
Bring a camera, laptop computer, all your lenses, flash and lightweight tripod. We suggest lenses ranging from 12-24mm to longer lenses 75 – 300mm. Be sure to bring your battery charger and more then one set of rechargeable batteries. Be sure to bring your camera's manual too. Bring an external hard drive besides your laptop to guarantee you have enough space, especially if you are shooting RAW. Make sure to have the appropriate image editing software on your laptop to view and edit your images.
HOW DO I KNOW IF A TREK IS FULL OR NOT?
Enrollment is on a rolling basis. We do not have enrollment deadlines. We will always do our best to accommodate as many trekkers as possible, but popular trips can fill up fast. Your best bet is to enroll early and if you any questions about the availability of a trek you can call Michelle Cast at (212) 767-6086.
NON-PHOTOGRAPHER SPOUSE/COMPANION POLICY
Spouses or non-photographer companions of trek participants who travel with them to Mentor Series trek destinations advertised as part of the Mentor Series will be charged the prevailing workshop cost. This is because of limitations in the workshop classes, transportation and seating at the many venues we work with on the treks. Please note that you must be 18 years old or over to attend or accompany us on any Mentor Series trek.
HOW DO WE GET AROUND ON THE WORKSHOPS?
The Mentor Series provides a motor coach to take the participants from location to location.
WHAT DO WE DO FOR THE FINAL PHOTO SHOW?
After the final review session you will be able to give Michelle Cast 5 images that you photographed over the weekend to show to your fellow trekkers. The images need to be jpgs and rotated upright.
HOW DO WE DRESS ON THE WORKSHOPS?
We are usually VERY casual on the treks. We will be both indoors and outdoors, so bring a variety of comfortable clothing you can layer. Dress comfortably, with good walking shoes.
