Develop Your Creative Vision

What a fascinating place the Tallheo Cannery in Bella Coola turned out to be.....and a wonderful setting for a Photography workshop. Develop Your Creative Vision" by Chris Harris and Dennis Ducklow held here

Rustic accommodation for sure but the hosts are great and the food was very good. The photographic opportunities were unlimited. I really enjoyed the workshop. Worth every penny.

The title of the workshop says it all! Chris and Dennis offer a transformative experience in their workshops. I see the world in new ways, and my camera is no longer a documentary tool, but rather an instrument for making art. Thanks so much for your guidance and inspiration, Chris and Dennis

This was a wonderful class/opportunity to explore and develop your creative vision. Dennis and Chris not only reminded you of all the options you already knew about, but pushed you to try new techniques to explore subjects. It was fantastic to have the time to really explore a theme or subject. I also left feeling even more confident with my camera and feeling comfortable playing with images to become more intentional. I now think more about my vision before opening the shutter. Beyond the great instruction, the venue was truly wonderful, with fantastic shooting opportunities, great food and the chance to stay in a historic residence. The food was fantastic and our hosts were welcoming and helpful. Having a supportive group of classmates and approachable instructors who went out of their way to give their expertise made this a great experience.

I had a fantastic time, can't believe I learned so much about creativity in just a few days! Certainly will let others know how easy Dennis and Chris helped me to learn the techniques. The cannery was an amazing place to go to, I loved the history and it seemed like I had walked back in time with everything left as it was.

I highly recommend this course! Chris and Dennis provided the perfect environment for us to learn new techniques and grow as artists using our cameras. They were kind and generous with their knowledge and Gabriola Island was a beautiful backdrop to capture amazing images. The food at the Haven was delicious and the comradery with fellow photographers was heartwarming. I will always have wonderful memories and photos from this adventure

What a wonderful week! We live in a beautiful province and the workshop took full advantage of what nature presented to us. The forest was a perfect setting for abstract photography and the cannery was a magical place where we could picture the feel

I recently attended the Develop Your Creative Vision workshop in Bella Coola and it was an absolutely amazing experience! I highly recommend attending it and/or any workshop offered by Dennis and Chris...they are an amazing team! I'm so grateful to have met the wonderful people who also attended, and I learned so much about creative, expressionistic photography...the possibilities are truly infinite.
