PARIS 2019

This June I had the pleasure of attending the "Essence of Paris" Travel Photography Workshop with Scott Kelby and Mimo Meidany. Every day we would meet up at 5 AM to go shoot an iconic Parisian landmark at sunrise. After the morning shoot we would return to the hotel to process and evaluate our photos. Each day I learned new techniques in photography and Photoshop/Lightroom.

Our leader and instructor, Scott Kelby. I've been following Scott online for years so it was a big thrill to get to meet and work with him. Scott's a fantastic teacher and is probably one of the most positive people you'll ever meet.

Our other instructor, Mimo Meidany is a master of composition and long exposures. He's a super nice guy and very helpful. Unfortunately, I didn't get a picture of him.

We stayed within walking distance of the iconic Notre Dame which had been heavily damaged by a fire a few weeks before our arrival.

The best part of the workshop for me was meeting and working with so many wonderful photographers. Everyone was so friendly and supportive. Their photography was truly inspiring and hopefully I'll get a chance to work with them again.

My entire experience on this workshop exceeded all my expectations. Paris is magical and hopefully I'll get a chance to come back soon.

Au revoir
