Charleston - Boneyard Beach
Details
UPDATE - 2: Linen is not supplied in the house. Please bring your own sheets and bath towels. I am only bringing my sleeping bag so if you have one, that would be another great option. I am checking with the owner to see if they have a washer/dryer.
UPDATE - 1: We have a rental home booked. 4 bedrooms, 4 baths and can accommodate up to 16 people. We will not meet up for carpooling but will meet at house address (please see address above). If anyone like to car pool, you are more than welcome to reach out to other members to make arrangements. Our rental home can be viewed from this link.
This is one trip you do not want to miss! Photo opportunities will be everywhere!! The stars are aligned for this trip to the beautiful city of Charleston - Edisto Island for the famous Boneyard Beach shot! The sun will coming up at a nice angle on Edisto Island and the tide will be perfect for the time we are there shooting! We will be photographing sunrises from Boneyard Beach and traveling to Charleston for the beautiful avenue of oaks lined trees filled with hanging moss. We will be hitting Angel Tree, Folly Beach and even may take a short trip to Savannah for another epic plantation. These skeleton trees on Boneyard beach will not be here forever, one bad hurricane season and these trees will only be memories past.

Yeah! I am also happy to announce that Martin Radigan will be co-leading this workshop with David and I. Martin is a talented photographer and has led workshops around the West Virginia area with Randall Sanger. You can see his beautiful work here ( http://www.martinradigan.com/). There will be 3 instructors for this group, which will be limited to 10 photographers.
Lodging: I will rent a beautiful house on Edisto Beach that will sleep 14 people and has at least 4-5 bathrooms. However, since we are staying less than 7 days, I cannot make reservation until 30 days before the trip. We should have no problem finding a place to stay since November is consider off season. I will add the house site when rented. NOTE: you will have to share a room and restrooms. We will be a community of photographers in one house and the best way to learn is by living it!
