Vancouver Photo Workshops is proud to announce this unique, and FREE, Fine-Art Long Exposure Photography Evening Seminar with international award-winning photographers, John Kosmopoulos and Marc Koegel.

This one-of-a-kind seminar and slideshow is focused on John's and Marc's stunning fine-art black and white images they shoot using long exposures.

Are you looking to get inspired?

Do you want to find out more about long exposure techniques without having to commit to a longer (and more expensive) workshop?

Then, this evening seminar is right for you!

John and Marc will show a large slideshow of their award-winning imagery and they will talk about how they achieve the long exposures they are using, including a discussion on what equipment is needed.

Anyone who has ever tried to use long exposure techniques will quickly recognize that it is not only a serious technical challenge, but also an emotional and visionary one. John and Marc will discuss where and how to find suitable subjects, and what approach to use to photograph them.

Be prepared to be inspired!

There will be time for your questions.

"Marc's skill and enthusiasm for teaching is only matched by his incredibly inspiring photographs. Thank you for a great workshop today!"

"Marc, earlier this fall I took your Long Exposure Workshop and ended up with a number of prints I quite like. I went off to practice on Pender Island and ended up with an image that did well in the local camera club competition. So thanks for your contribution."

"Hi Marc, I wanted to let you know, I won a merit award in the B&W single image contest. Please let me know when you have another Long Exposure Workshop shooting in a different location. Thanks."
