Tony Hebert, Lead Photographer, Lead Instructor, and owner of 319 Photography, has developed a workshop curriculum based on his twenty year career as a photographer – the past twelve years spent as a professional photographer in the industry. Tony has assembled a small team that is just as passionate about photography and teaching others as he is. Tony and his team have poured their heart and souls into building these UNIQUE / Workshops and we want to share our passion with you! Our goal is to provide YOU with an amazing experience and to teach YOU techniques that will allow you to capture amazing astro-landscape images. In short, all of our workshops are about YOU, not us. Tony and his associate instructors may have their camera gear with them during in-field shooting portions of a workshop, but they will not be shooting alongside you; rather, their camera’s stay in their bags and they pay attention to YOU! Also, we have a focused classroom curriculum that we teach during our workshops that is designed to provide you with skills ranging from camera operations to post-processing techniques using software such as Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Lightroom. We focus on your experience and education during a 319 Photography UNIQUE / Workshop, but it doesn’t stop there! We are building a growing community of 319 Photography UNIQUE / Workshop alumni and we offer continued support to alumni well after they complete a workshop!

Your 319 Photography UNIQUE / Workshops tuition fee covers the time and talent of Tony and his associate instructors, personalized in-field instruction, guide service through the workshop location, in-depth classroom instruction including post-processing skills, classroom materials, and continued support after the workshop is over! Depending on the workshop, your tuition may also cover lodging and meals. Check the description page of the workshop that you are interested in! If you have questions, feel free to email Tony at tony@319photography.com

Unless otherwise expressly noted, your 319 Photography UNIQUE / Workshop tuition fee DOES NOT cover your travel to the workshop destination, travel during the workshop, park fees (if applicable), travel insurance, equipment insurance, or meals. Depending on the workshop, your tuition may not cover lodging. If this is the case, it will be expressly noted in the workshop description page. For some workshops, your tuiton may cover 1 or 2 meals a day. If this is the case, your tuition will not cover meals or snacks outside of that. Please check the description page of the workshop you are interested in.

On a Photo Tour, tour guides generally take people to several areas for short amounts of time and there is no instruction offered by the guides. Photo Tours are often fast paced and give participants only minimal time in certain areas. A 319 Photography UNIQUE Photography Workshop is an immersive educational experience driven by passionate instructors. Our goal is to teach and inspire our workshop participants and always put their needs first.

None! Whether you are a pro or a novice, we cater to photographers of all skill levels! We have had the pleasure of having students join us for workshops who were absolute beginners, as well as students who are seasoned professionals. We tailor our one-on-one instruction to meet YOUR needs!

Unless otherwise noted, all of our workshops are capped at 10 participants. Tony values quality over quantity and does not believe in jeopardizing student experiences by crowding his workshops.

At all workshops, there will be a minimum of two instructors, including Tony. With each workshop capped at 10 participants, the student to instructor ratio will be at least one instructor to five students. Some of our workshops may have up to three instructors, including Tony, which will reduce the student to instructor ratio to 1:3.5!
