Class Description

Description

Don’t miss this unique opportunity to visit and photograph five magnificent gardens in and around Chicago at the height of the summer bloom during this intensive five-day flower and garden workshop led by master photographer Allen Rokach. 

Rokach will guide participants to the limitless possibilities of digital photography in a garden setting, focusing on the particular strengths of each location:
  • spectacular specialty gardens of the Chicago Botanic Garden.
  • wonderful ornate gardens and floral display at the Baha’i temple in Wilmette. 
  • magnificent English gardens of the private estate, Mettawa Manor. 
  • amazing garden design of Lurie Garden in Chicago’s Millennium Park.
  • Pristine formal gardens at Cantigny Park in Wheaton.  
Through lectures, field sessions, review sessions, and individual consultations, participants at all levels of photographic experience will receive in-depth instruction on the technical and aesthetic aspects of digital flower and garden photography. As an added bonus, we will have access to the grounds of all gardens at sunrise to explore and capture the special qualities of early morning light. Detailed itinerary upon request.
