Workshop Leader Showcase

As the Photographer's Lounge continues to grow we are continually looking for experienced leaders to run our workshops and seminars.

I would like to introduce the new members of the family to you.

Jamie Douglas...

Our proud new "Dad", Jamie Douglas is a self taught wildlife conservation photographer from Scotland who has based himself in British Columbia, Canada. Jamie has become an outspoken crusader for the protection of Canada's Black Bears and hopes to promote bear conservation in his local community through his photography.

Jamie has always loved wildlife, from growing up in the UK watching BBC Wildlife shows narrated by Sir David Attenborough to living in British Columbia, lying awake at night listening to the local Coyotes harass the Canadian Geese in the ponds behind his house. Jamie developed an interest in photography towards the end of 2007 when he picked up his first SLR, a Canon Rebel Xti.

Since then Jamie has gone on to track and photograph the many wonders of nature that reside in and visit his new home land. Follow and be inspired by Jamie's latest project, photographing the local Black Bears that he shares his new home with. Come along for the adventure as he writes short stories and shares photographs from his many encounters. To follow Black Bear Diaries, click here: http://jmdouglasphotography.blogspot.com/

Tim Vollmer...

Tim is a frieind of mine. I started folling his landscape images 4 years ago... then got to know the man behind the images. Tim is an exceptional nature and landscape photographer from Iceland. His images have been published around the world in such magazines as the National Geographic website, Icelandic times, Icelands official tourism guide, PhotoZoom, Defotograff and Land og Saga, just to name a few.

Tim also runs workshops and photo tours around the world. His photography tours are designed for passionate photographers with the main emphasis on small groups. He believes that this allows him to optimize the program according to weather and light conditions. Each itinerary is designed to give time for individual exploration and everyone is given the personal attention to talk one on one with his respected instructors in order to ask questions in field for compositional and other technical tips.

Tim is 40 and lives in Hveragerði, Iceland with his wife and his children.
