This unique local wilderness known as the Pine Barrens is anything but Barren. It has over 1 million acres in the most populated state in the United States. Come see and photograph this uniquely beautiful landscape with photography Richard Lewis. He has been exploring the Pine Barrens for close to 30 years and has found some amazing places for photography. The forests, lakes, rivers, bogs, and even the cedar swamps offer their own beauty. This workshop will be a mix of photography and instruction tailored to the workshop participants’ abilities and needs.

Notes on Pine Barrens photography workshops
- These workshops are limited in size to provide as much time as possible with each participant to navigate the site, provide ideas, instruction and to discuss the technical and artistic side of photography.
- My primary role is to be there for you. If there is an unusual opportunity, I may set up my camera, but primarily I have it to use for instruction.
- The best spots in the Pine Barrens are not always right by the side of the road. There will be some very short walks on this workshop. The terrain in the Pines is flat and sandy so it is relatively easy walking, but ground can also be uneven. If you have any issues or concerns about your physical ability to do this workshop, please contact me and I will do the best to accommodate you.
- Nature and weather are unpredictable, especially in the Pine Barrens. Each day can bring a different experience, so understanding that it is important to keep the workshop itinerary flexible will help ensure the goal that you get great photographs while experiencing the beautiful New Jersey Pine Barrens.
- Speaking of weather, we will photograph in most conditions, rain or shine. However, heavy rain and other dangerous weather conditions may force the workshop to be rescheduled. Should that happen we will come up with an alternative date that suits this group.
- The cost of this workshop covers the instruction and access to the locations we will be photographing at. It does not include transportation, to and from the workshop, lodging, meals, etc.
