MEXICO CITY

Sold out - join the waitlist; send me an email!

So excited to be heading back to Mexico City for the second time! We’ll spend 4 days photographing the historic, modern, and contemporary designs of this great city – museums, castles, cathedrals + more.

The focus will be on creating detailed and abstract interpretations of the city’s built environment.

A few days before we meet in person, we’ll come together for an online presentation with tips on composition. Once the in-person portion wraps, you’ll have a couple of weeks to work on your images and then we’ll meet up online once again for a review session of each participant’s work.

PRESENTATION: Thursday, February 26, 7pm CT

REVIEW SESSION: Thursday, March 19, 7pm CT

Workshop Highlights

These are just some of the locations we’ll see. A more detailed itinerary will be sent out a couple of weeks prior to us meeting in-person.

Why Attend?

  • Learn to see architecture with clear, actionable tips that you can apply during the workshop, and come home with portfolio-worthy images.
  • Get individualized attention in this small group format; workshop is limited to 10 participants.
  • Learn to shoot without complicated settings or techniques so you can improve your images in a single weekend, even if you’ve never shot architecture before.
  • Learn post-processing techniques for architecture so you can save time in front of the computer.
  • Improve your entire creative process from shooting to post-processing and get your images noticed!
  • Create amazing images with on-location guidance and feedback and win competitions!
  • Learn in the best conditions without having to worry about the logistics of a big city.
  • Get inspired by world-class architecture so you can take your images to the next level.
  • Connect with like-minded people and build lasting friendships.

What You'll See...

Gear

We’ll be walking A LOT (around 4 miles per day)! Please be prepared with good shoes, water, snacks, and travel light!

We will be in museums often – MOST REQUIRE BACKPACKS TO BE CHECKED (when I visited in the past, I did this in every location with no issues, and most are free of charge).

I recommend a mid-range zoom around the 24-70mm range + a 70-200mm telephoto (the telephoto will likely be your most used lens). If you’d like to bring an additional lens, a wide-angle, 12-24mm range may be useful in a couple of locations.

Tripods are not needed, and I recommend not using them. Interior locations won’t allow them, and we’ll be shooting during daylight for all locations.

Our meeting and ending point each day will be the hotel –  Camino Real Polanco.

 

Hotel Recommendation

Camino Real Polanco, Calz. Gral. Mariano Escobedo 700, Anzures, Miguel Hidalgo, 11590 Ciudad de México, CDMX, Mexico – THIS WILL BE OUR MEETING AND ENDING DESTINATION EACH DAY.
