Behind the Lens: Bird Photography in the Field
Join Seacoast Photography School and the Center for Wildlife for a hands-on bird photography workshop that combines practical instruction with guided fieldwork.
Designed for beginner through advanced photographers, this workshop focuses on the technical and creative skills needed to photograph birds with greater confidence and intention. Through personalized instruction and time behind the camera, you'll explore focus, movement, lighting, composition, and the challenge of capturing the right moment.
Now in our fifth year of collaboration with the Center for Wildlife, we're proud to continue offering this unique photography experience while supporting the Center's important work in wildlife rehabilitation, education, and conservation.
A portion of each registration supports the Center for Wildlife and their work caring for local wildlife.
