Experiencing the beautiful light dance across the Oklahoma plains is incredible, whether it’s sun rays, atmospheric glow, or lightning bolts! Join me September 18th-21st as we chase Central Oklahoma’s magical vibes around the state.

This 4 Day – 3 Night Adventure Photography Workshop will focus on capturing sunset to sunrise, and everything in between. You will learn the best settings for shooting anytime of the day, from twilight, golden hour, sunset, blue hour, & the Milky Way.

I have chosen the dark sky week in September so we can play all day and night learning about the celestial objects in the night skies and watching the warm sun set on the endless horizon. You will be guided through the Sooner State’s best kept secrets and hidden gems at all the perfect times.

We will explore a different area of the state every day including riding SXS’s in Little Sahara State Park, dig for salt crystals at the Salt Plains Wildlife Refuge, and pick up selenite crystals at Gloss Mountain State Park, also giving you ample opportunities to come away with many great images in over 30+ hours of onsite shooting time. Using advanced photography techniques you will also learn to capture stunning and unique compositions. This all-immersive workshop also includes 6 hours of classroom setting editing courses so you can fine tune your style and create a cohesive gallery of your trip.

Experiencing the changing light and geography will leave you inspired to create powerful imagery that tells unique stories. I hope you not only walk away from this workshop with an improved skillset, but also a group of photographers you can call your people.

A fun adventure is guaranteed!

This workshop does require light walking at some locations but will push you to your limits when it comes to comfort, sleep, and creativity. We will also be driving around 30 min-1 hour daily to each new location, saving the cooler parts of the day for capturing the landscapes and using the mid afternoon time for indoor editing courses.

All entrance fees, permits, most meals, and lodging accommodations are included to help take the travel stress out of your adventure!

A print voucher to Steam Art & Graphics will also be given to you, good for a 12×18 print of your favorite capture at the workshop.

Transportation and one meal each day are not included.

SPACE IS LIMITED FOR TEACHING PURPOSES AND TO KEEP COMPOSITIONS UNCLUTTERED.

A DEPOSIT OF $500 CAN BE MADE TO SECURE YOUR SPOT TODAY.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Brennen Nicole's Dreamscapes workshop at White Sands National Park was an amazing experience. She took us to the perfect locations that she had scouted ahead of the workshop, and provided each participant personal attention to ensure everyone came home with an incredible image. The editing portion of the workshop was just as incredible as the photography. She is a very knowledgeable and patient instructor and helped each one of us at our own level to edit the images we captured in the field. Highly recommend!

I learned a lot in the field on composition and in the editing class. Brennen is a great teacher with patience and is very knowledgeable with a great personality. You can tell she loves teaching and helping people learn milky way photography. I 'm looking forward to another workshop in Oct and highly recommend Brennen to anyone interested in learning landscape or milky way photography. I will definitely being going on more workshops in the future!!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The workshop was magnificent~! Her timing and instructions (verbal, written, and in person) make it easy to follow along and she leaves plenty of time for questions and problems with equipment.  I had a such a relaxing but exhaustive 3 day weekend! Up at 3:30am to catch the first rising of the Milky Way... Homemade breakfast with more food than we could eat! Every detail well thought out for so many memories and a great experience! Thanks you, Brennen.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I got to experience the San Juan color tour with Brennen this fall. It was a dream trip. I learned so much from Brennen and she brought us to the most beautiful places. I can’t believe that I took some of the photos I’ve collected from this trip. I highly recommend Brennen- she’s professional, fun, encouraging, and down to earth. I’ll definitely be looking for more opportunities in the future with her!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Brennen is an excellent workshop leader. She works hard to make experienced to beginner photographers comfortable and strives to give any level photographer new skills. I am a fairly experienced photographer and she taught me some great new techniques. I took her fall Colorado tour in September 2025. The workshop was well organized and filled with many opportunities for photography experiences. I highly recommend her workshop and tours.
