About this event

Join Pro Photo Supply, Dan Hawk from Sony, and photographer Mike Vraneža for an epic trip to Eastern Oregon, where we’ll capture the Milky Way and Perseid Meteor Shower under some of the best dark sky areas in the country.

We will set you up for success in shooting nighttime landscapes and Astrophotography as well as provide a demo of the day to night workflow for timelapse photography. There will be multiple pre-production meetings - held virtually - covering access and the gear required to trek out to this remote location as well as technical challenges of image making at night.

With the assistance of Sony Rep Dan Hawk and Pro Photo Supply Staff, Mike will guide you through virtual scouting, review software and apps for planning, shooting with post-production in mind, and discuss what gear to use for the best results.

Sony will have gear on hand for attendees to test throughout the workshop, more information on this will be provided to attendees nearer to the date of the trip!
