Ken is a location and corporate photographer. He has traveled all around the world with his photography, shooting for many clients. Ken also teaches a photography workshop! Today, Ken and Mike talk about his workshop at Speed Week, a group of automotive enthusiasts that come together at the bottom of a large, flat former lake bed in order to get the cars to top speeds. The workshop is unique because of Ken’s relationship with the officials who organize this event. They let the students in the workshop get beyond the typical boundaries in order to shoot some truly amazing pictures. We have some pictures here from his workshops that demonstrate the amazing contrast of colors with the sky and the sand and dust that these vehicles disturb. Ken recommends a lens with a good zoom for specialty equipment during this workshop. Since you are right beside the vehicles when they take off, that means that you are pretty far from them when they reach top speeds. The extra zoom capabilities are essential for getting that perfect shot from those distances. In addition to the amazing scenes available to the students for shooting, Ken also is available for them. Since there are only about 4 students, you really get the individual help that is vital for learning photography. Ken describes his photography workshop as a “Bucket List” photoshoot. He says that there is so much to photograph. With miles and miles of scenery to photograph, it’s truly something that he wants to share with anyone that is interested.
