Night Sky Photography

Night Sky Photography Workshop

Capturing the stars on camera is an amazing skill, and it results in some pretty incredible photos. Even if you’re new to the concept of night sky photography, my workshop will teach you the skills and knowledge required to capture our universe in all its glory. With stargazing photography, you’ll discover how to set up your camera and create the ideal settings to capture the stars in perfect clarity. Each location chosen is specially designated to ensure that you can capture the Milky Way and other beautiful images of the night sky. Ideally, night sky photography looks best during clear weather when there are clear skies. While the workshop may vary depending on the weather, the sessions will proceed unless there is thick fog, heavy rain, or other conditions that can get in the way of your stargazing photography capture.

During this workshop, you’ll learn how to plan for the shot, how to focus your camera in the dark, and the optimal camera settings. With some patience and education, you’ll become a pro at capturing the night sky as you explore our stars and showcase your newly learned skill. Once we take several photos, it will be time to look back on your images and review what you have learnt.

The night sky edit session workshop involves a one-on-one video call either via Skype or Zoom so I can show you how to edit your photos from the night using Photoshop and Lightroom. These types of shots require processing in order to look their best, so this part is crucial to enhance your captured images to achieve the best pictures possible.

The group size for the night sky workshops will be kept small and limited to no more than three students per session. The shooting session itself should last between three to four hours,

The online editing call will follow in a few days if booked and will last an hour.
