Join guest photographer Jamie Malcolm-Brown for a hands-on photography workshop at Tannery Falls in Savoy Mountain State Forest—a hidden gem in the Berkshires known for its dramatic 80-foot waterfall and lush, moss-covered ravine. We’ll explore the winding trail along Ross Brook, photographing cascades framed by hemlocks, boulders, and shifting light. This workshop is designed for photographers of all levels who want to improve their long exposure techniques, composition in challenging forest light, and storytelling through landscape imagery.
This peaceful, lesser-traveled location offers space to slow down, observe, and capture intimate scenes and beautiful waterfall views. We’ll cover techniques for working with ND filters, managing dynamic range under the canopy, and shooting in changing conditions. Whether you’re looking to build your portfolio or simply spend time in a unique natural setting, this workshop will guide you through the creative and technical sides of waterfall photography.
The hike to the waterfall is only 1/4 mile, but it is steep. Bring water, snacks, bug spray, and appropriate footwear. Expect to get your shoes or feet wet.
The ideal equipment includes a tripod, a wide-angle zoom or prime lens (with the wide end between 16mm and 24mm), and a set of ND filters. If all you photograph with is a cell phone, that also works. I can help you capture the best images you can with the gear you have.
