Wine Country in Late Fall
Details
### Photograph the Colors and Stillness of Napa & Sonoma in Late Fall
Sunday, November 16th · 11:00 AM – 5:00 PM
Limited to 6 participants
By mid-November, Sonoma County begins to exhale. The harvest is over, the crowds are gone, and the landscape settles into a slower rhythm. Vines still hold onto their last golds and reds, oak woodlands glow with rusty leaves, and the coastal light softens into rich, moody tones.
This small-group workshop explores the backroads and vineyard valleys of western Sonoma during this beautiful transition. You’ll photograph historic farm buildings, quiet country roads, vineyards in late-season color, and the natural landscape—forests, hills, and maybe even hints of fog.
We’ll focus on a single region to maximize time in the field and work with whatever light and weather the day gives us.
