Most photographers spend a lot of time hoping the weather cooperates. Rick Sammon and Mike Caplan take a different approach.
In this week’s class, they show how weather can become one of the most valuable creative tools in your photography toolkit. Instead of reacting to conditions, you’ll learn how to anticipate them, understand what they mean, and use them to create stronger images.
Mike brings a meteorologist’s perspective, helping you read the sky and recognize the signs of changing light and weather patterns. Rick builds on that knowledge with practical photographic techniques for composition, exposure, gear selection, and post-processing. Together, they cover everything from fog and snow to storms and dramatic cloud formations, along with the safety considerations that come with photographing in changing conditions.
The biggest takeaway is simple: stop waiting for perfect weather and start looking for opportunities. Watch Rick tell you more about the class below and then check it out here.
