3-Night Astrophotography Weekend Initial Payment
3-Night Astrophotography Weekend Initial Payment
Experience 3 nights photographing a blanket of stars under some of the darkest skies in the Northeast region.
What to expect: Learning along side other photographers in this beginner-friendly workshop, you’ll learn how to capture stars, the milky way, and the famous Pemaquid Point lighthouse. The costal rock ledges create a striking shoreline that separates the Atlantic and evergreen trees. Our central meeting point, a lighthouse commissioned by John Quincy Adams in 1827, becomes a welcome subject in our landscape astrophotography.
Our home-base for the weekend will be the Bradley Inn, a full-service bed and breakfast. A beautiful sanctuary the inn offers guests a charming, comfortable, and warm environment that truly exudes the essence of Maine.
Throughout the weekend you’ll enjoy small group lessons, ample 1:1 time with your instructors, guided night time sessions, an editing session, and complimentary breakfasts provided by the in-house chef.
