About

GMTHEODOREPHOTOGRAPHY owns two businesses under its banner: American Nature Photography Workshops (ANPW) formed in 2011 and THEO FINE ART PHOTOGRAPHY formed in 2018.

Under ANPW, I have led nature and travel photography workshops and tours worldwide. I have taught the basic fundamentals of exposure and composition and more advanced topics such as creativity, design and vision. As a result I have helped many from beginning to advanced students. My teaching "career" started when I retired (2002) from my first one as an Electrical Engineer. That background gave me a sound technical foundation and my experience in public speaking gave me the tools and methods to explain photography in easy to understand terms.

I'm not only passionate about doing my own work but even more so in teaching. I'm thrilled to see a student's photography grow from fundamentally sound to something expressive.

I have taught people with only a basic "point-and-shoot" camera to those with the latest equipment with many years of experience. My experience encompasses over 60 years with a camera in my hands and I have shot eveything from urban to nature. Starting in film days, I progressed from a basic rangefinder camera, to SLR's to DSLR's and, as of five years ago, to mirrorless. I have shot mostly Nikon and Fuji.

I have used Adobe Lightroom since its inception and have taught sessions on that software. I am also well versed in Adobe Photoshop and various plug-ins for both Lightroom and Photoshop.

I created a 55 page "Class Notes" with various topics that I have given away free to our workshop and tour participants.

I have little experience in portrait photography and would not accept such assignments.

Under these pandemic times, I can do on-line zoom or in-person, with masks and appropriate distancing, outdoors as weather conditions permit.

The American Nature Photography Workshops are a wonderful opportunity to combine professional photography advice with expert knowledge of the best sites, times and techniques to shoot interesting landscape photos. George Theodore is a master at this and presents it with humor and goodwill for his amateur students and seasoned professionals alike.

Ive been participating in workshops with ANPW for several years now. They always put us on world class locations for shoots where you can take the classic shot or let your imagination run wild. Classes are informative and what youll learn in the field is limited only by the questions you ask. I dare anyone to go on an ANPW workshop and not have a great time and learn something to boot!

Ive had the pleasure of attending 11 workshops and tours with ANPW. And, Im booked for 3 more in the next 9 months. What keeps me coming back? Knowing that Im guaranteed a great experience, photographically and socially, thats what. The locations are top notch. And then theres those right place at the right time moments, such as shooting a beautiful Bobcat in the snow in Yellowstone and being in Death Valley for the first Super Bloom in 11 years. Thanks for the great memories and images, ANPW.
