Winter in the Canadian Rockies has ‘seasons’ within the season. During the early stages of winter, there is still open water with reflections, yet the landscape is blanketed by mounds of pillowy snow. As the temperatures continue to fall, the landscape is transformed. The Canadian Rockies Photography Workshop – Winter Edition will focus on the stillness of winter that comes with the December chill.
This is the prime time to photograph the frozen methane bubbles that get trapped in the icey lakes, the snow cornices that wrap around the mountain peaks, and the otherworldly formations of frozen waterfalls.
Early December is the perfect time to photograph the famous methane bubbles at Abraham Lake. By the second week of December, the entire lake is frozen, and the bubbles have had time ‘stack’ into deep layers as the ice freezes. We will spend at least two full days here, exploring the endless compositions this lake has to offer.
If there is an aurora and clear viewing conditions at any time during the Jasper Photography Workshop, we will add it to the itinerary! Nothing is more spellbinding than watch the green and purple lights dance over the snow capped peaks. We will never pass up on an opportunity to capture the glow of the aurora!
What you will learn on the Canadian Rockies Photography Workshop?
We don’t hold anything back when we teach. You will learn how to plan shoots, how to execute a plan, and how we edit our photos. Some of the topics we will cover include creating compelling compositions, focus stacking, blending exposures, blue hour blends, understanding depth of field, manually shooting for high dynamic range, and capturing the night sky. We have also developed a curriculum of classroom lectures that will cover each topic we will explore on location.
