Nature Photography Weekend

June 9, 2023 @ 4:00 pm - June 11, 2023 @ 2:00 pm

Call it a picture perfect weekend.
Grandfather Mountain’s annual Nature Photography Weekend returns June 9-11. This three-day workshop features presentations from renowned photographers; one-of-a-kind shooting opportunities; and a friendly, but competitive photo contest.
Featured presenters include Tommy White, Ian Shive and J Smilanic. The speakers will discuss a variety of photography-related topics, encompassing both the technical and artistic elements of the craft.
Presentations take place in the afternoons and evenings, allowing participants to explore Grandfather Mountain and take their own shots during the day, while also participating in several outdoor field sessions (weather permitting) with professional photographers. Opportunities for sunrise and sunset photography will also be offered.
Participants may camp for free at Grandfather’s Woods Walk Picnic Area during the weekend, taking advantage of one of the few opportunities to stay overnight inside the park.
Admission covers three-day park admission, a Saturday evening meal, entry to all presentations and field sessions, and a flash drive for submitting contest entries. A reduced-price option includes all of the above, with the exception of the photo contest. In addition, family members and guests of participants may visit the mountain at a discounted rate during the weekend if registered in advance.
Online registration is required. Click here to register. (Opens May 8 at 10 a.m.)
