Description

Join Scott for unique workshop photographing owls, hawks and falcons and have the rare opportunity to get falcons in flight. Professional landscape photographer Scott Turnmeyer calls Shenandoah National Park home, only living a few miles from the quiet and peaceful entrance in Front Royal, VA. Scott has spent countless hours in the park photographing sunrises, sunsets, waterfalls, wildlife and so much more. He knows the lay of the land, the best photo spots, how the weather moves and changes, timing of the sun and moon, and so much more. He now offers his experience and guidance to everyone with the photography passion or interest. Scott offers multiple photography workshops within the Shenandoah National Park and its surrounding areas each year. Everything from the long and more strenuous multi-mile hikes to the shoot location, to the drive sunsets or sunrises at only the best overlooks in the park. Scott has it all planned out and something for everyone. Each workshop consists of a different experience, and with weather, seasons and wildlife changes, no two workshops are ever the same. Each workshop has 2 guides, both CPR certified and permitted to run tours within the Shenandoah National Park. Scott is there the entire time to help you with composition, camera settings, light painting (night workshops) and much more. He is happy to share his expertise to help you get amazing photos. This workshop, “Raptor and Falconry Photography Workshop”, is great for everyone. It’s a light activity as Scott will take you to a raptor facility in Stanley, Virginia where you will have the opportunity to photograph hawks, owls and falcons up close and personal.
