What we’re about

Welcome to Fawcett Photography Adventures
If you love all things photography, join us and expand your photographic vision as we embark on adventures to learn Landscape, Night, and Milky Way (Astroscape) photography as well as Long exposure, HDR, filter utilization, Photoshop Techniques, and all things related to your camera.
We will be offering a variety of workshops and shoots for photographers of all experience levels. The goal is to create educational, inspiring and unique events to inspire creativity and passion in all attendees. You will get to experience new places, develop new techniques and build friendships with fellow photographers.
Photographers of all skill levels who are looking to improve their skills, find new creative outlets for shooting, or just to connect with a friendly group of people to socialize and talk shop are all welcome to join.
