About BPS
Welcome! Baltimore Photo Safari began 5 years ago with a simple concept - show folks where to find great photo opportunities and how to create perfect images. I combine how-to instruction, hands-on assistance, and professional critiques to enhance your photographic skills and enrich your enjoyment of photography. I choose locations that exhilarate your spirit, spark your photography, and wow your viewer with electrifying images.My 2012 schedule includes the Inner Harbor photo safaris featured last year in the Washington Post; new photo weekends at destinations I describe in my book Photographing Baltimore, Annapolis, and MD’s Eastern Shore (Countryman Press © 2012); perennial favorites such as Bombay Hook National Wildlife Refuge; and, several full-length photography workshops in the Mid-Atlantic region.

Downy Oshun Photo Fling Weekend Ocean City
March 16-18, 2012 $295 per person
Spring is in the air. Grab your camera and join me downy oshun (as folks say in Baltimore) for this Photo-Fling Weekend. Colorful beach sunrises, the annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade (where even pet dogs dress up to show they’re Irish), the commercial fishing harbor, the Isle of Wight Nature Park, and other Ocean City sights await. Your friends will be green with envy when they see the marvelous photos you capture this weekend.
Schedule
On Friday evening at 7pm there is an orientation, instructional presentation, and a Q&A session. We spend the majority of Saturday out and about in the field. At each venue I provide individualized instruction appropriate to the subject at hand. Early Sunday morning we are again out in the field at other sites Ocean City has to offer. Our photo weekend concludes late Sunday morning in time to check out of our hotel rooms.
Included in this weekend training session
The photo weekend fee covers workshop instruction and awesome photo opportunities. My role as lead instructor is to help you create better images and fill your portfolio. I do not photograph during this seaside weekend, I teach.
My goal is to help you develop a set of skills and techniques you can use over your lifetime to create images of which you will be proud. To help reinforce the techniques we cover, I provide participants via email a follow-up professional critique of any 5 images shot this weekend.
The fee does not include lodging, meals, or transportation.
I designed this photo weekend to accommodate a maximum of 8 participants. A minimum of 4 participants is required.
