What a great experience at Ricketts Glen State Park for a workshop with an awesome instructor, Chris Byrne. It was great getting down and our feet wet, and he just opened up himself for us to ask him basically anything. It was all a great learning experience for me, from how to handle the equipment a bit better, what he looks for when shooting, processing, and other pointers. It was great being able to show each other our work as we went about the day, too. We spent the entire day there, basically. We hiked from about 7 am to 4:30, and I was beat. Tired, sore, and a bit hungry. It was awesome. — Desha U.
To anyone contemplating joining up on one of Chris’s workshops I highly recommend it. He is a great guy very knowledgeable , knows what he’s talking about you won’t regret it. I took one of his this summer in glacier national Park and it was a great time. — Tom S.
In July of 2018 I took Chris Byrne’s Glacier National Park Workshop. I had never been to Glacier, so I was very excited to go and see all the beauty that this landscape would provide. I was not disappointed. The sunrises and sunsets were stunning, and the wildlife was more than I anticipated. We saw quite a few bear and Moose which was terrify and fascinating at the same moment. And there were waterfalls everywhere. Two of the hikes were a bit challenging for someone who is not used to mountains, but I was able to make it and glad I did. The views were unbelievable. Chris is a fantastic and patient instructor who takes his time with each student to make sure they understand how to get the shots they are looking for. I highly recommend this workshop, and any that Chris offers. — Julie A.
I had the pleasure of taking a private workshop in Iceland with Chris during the summer of 2016 and it was an experience that I will never forget. The scenery and locations were incredible and Chris really knew the places to hit and when to avoid the crowds. I had taken some photography classes before that trip from others, but Chris was really able to help me put it all together and teach me new things. I was so happy with the pictures I was able to take and can’t recommend his workshops highly enough! — Amanda T.
