It is all very beautiful and magical here—a quality which cannot be described. You have to live it and breathe it, let the sun bake it into you. The skies and land are so enormous, and the detail so precise and exquisite that wherever you are you are isolated in a glowing world between the macro and the micro, where everything is sidewise under you and over you, and the clocks stopped long ago.
― Ansel Adams

New Mexico. An enchanted land . . . a place that has enthralled photographers and other artists for more than a century. Santa Fe . . . America’s oldest capital city. 400 years old. A magical place where your photography can come alive. Quaint adobe architecture, brilliant light and flavors of the Native American, Spanish and European cultures.

You are invited to join award-winning photographer Craig Varjabedian this summer in New Mexico for a fun and inspiring workshop photographing the magic of New Mexico—the historic adobe buildings, the rugged terrain of O’Keeffe country, Taos Pueblo, New Mexico’s vast skies and so much more.  

THE WORKSHOP |
Northern New Mexico is sand and sage, plains and mesas, flame colored cliffs — surrounded by sky and clouds that herald the change of time and weather. Our land of stunning landscapes and incomparable light have inspired so many artists such as Georgia O'Keeffe, Ansel Adams, and many others throughout the centuries. You too can capture the magical grandeur of our enchanted land. New Mexico is a place that will not only leave you breathless, but also most certainly will inspire a whole new energy and passion within you while taking your photography to the next level.
