Get a rare glimpse of the Gardens at dusk and dawn while sharpening your skills with award-winning photographer, Saxon Holt. Learn how to look at a beautiful garden (such as MCBG) and decide what to photograph and how to frame it. Photographers need to know what they're looking at, what story they're trying to tell, and how to frame a composition that communicates exactly that story. This two-day workshop will focus on flower combinations and compositions using color, shape, foliage, and texture. Each session will begin with a photo walk with Saxon and conclude with a critique in the MCBG Farmhouse. The workshop fee includes the option to attend Saxon’s Find the Photo lecture, which will provide an introduction to deciding what to photograph and how to frame it.
