Have you ever wanted to shoot for the fun of it? Are you intimidated on location and forget “what to do”? Do you want to “go shoot” but don’t know where to go or who to go with? Join us for our bus tour where fun and photography go hand in hand! Not a class, but an opportunity to photograph nature, travel and architecture with the guidance of Paul’s instructors and the camaraderie of the group. The Paul’s Photo Bus Tours offer you the fun of our weekend Adventures in one day. Catalina Island in the late spring is an amazing location!
Santa Catalina Island, just 26 miles across the sea, offers unique photo opportunities for all levels and interests. Travel photographers will enjoy the Mediterranean atmosphere and quaint beauty of city life and people in Avalon. Architectural photographers will love the art deco styling and ability to photograph in and around the historic Casino. Landscape and nature photographers will be thrilled with the opportunities shooting the American Bison in the rugged Catalina backcountry, the Wrigley Ranch and Little Harbor.
The Catalina Bus Tour will be a full day of great photo locations and amazing scenery. You will make great pictures and have fun. To learn more about Catalina Island visit http://www.visitcatalinaisland.com,http://www.catalina.com,http://www.catalinaexpress.com

Weston-Carmel Figure Workshop |
|
June 24-27, 2010
You are invited to experience the Weston-Carmel Figure Workshop. Join Mark Comon from Paul’s Photo and Kim Weston (grandson of Edward Weston) for two full days of photography capturing artistic nudes on Wildcat Hill (the famous Weston family property in Carmel). The Wildcat estate allows us to shoot in the forest, garden, house or studio using the stunning natural light of spring on the California coast. We’re hoping for the fog and soft light Edward Weston made famous!
Photographers will be split into teams of three or four… shooting, lighting and loading with one professional model (we’ve ordered male and female models). Our low model-to-shooter ratio means you’ll have more-than-enough time to shoot creatively, learn lighting and direct the posing. Models and locations will be rotated hourly so you can experience all of the subjects and locations. Participants will learn lighting, posing, shooting and “handling” techniques from a real pro… plus Mark will be on hand to help!
Our last evening features a special dinner at the Weston home with print viewing and stimulating discussion. Spouses and guests are welcome to join us for the dinner. This is not a weekend for every photographer, but if you have ever wanted to shoot nudes in the “Weston Style” you will love the opportunity!
