Hiking trails in San Diego and beyond can be great areas for inspiration. I love the iconic areas that all us photographers like to take epic photos at, the ones that everyone recognizes, but I also get a kick out of finding a unique scene that has not been over explored. By getting out on to hiking trails you can find a unique perspective on the area where you live. All genres of photography can benefit from this. Heading out on the trail can help you find a unique landscape to shoot, and great backdrop for portraits, a cool place for macrophotography, a wonderful foreground for astrophotography, …the possibilities are endless. In this workshop I will assume you have some basic knowledge of photography and focus more on some basics to make your outdoor adventures more enjoyable and rewarding. Such as: The best planning practices that can help you maximize your enjoyment of the adventure and increase your keepers for your photography. Some of the better locations around San Diego for hiking and photography. Best fitness practices to help you get in shape for your hiking adventures. Safety tips to help minimize your risk while out on the trail.
About Brad: Brad Spiess is an award-winning photographer who has spent countless hours on the trails over many years. Brad started hiking with his mother at an early age in the Pacific Islands. Later on in life after leaving the military he relocated to San Diego and discovered an area rich in hiking trails and diversity.
