Tim D. Neumann
A Few Words About Tim…
With over forty (40) years of experience in photography and print production, Tim Neumann has a wealth of experience in capturing, creating, and crafting fine art images. Starting in the film days, Tim spent copious hours behind the lens and in the darkroom. Never content with run-of-the-mill image output, he always looked for ways to push his images to the next step. Whether searching for new shooting techniques or looking for innovative ways to create more compelling prints, Tim was always interested in all facets of fine art imaging.
With the advent of the digital era in imaging, Tim was all in, embracing digital formats and tools in both image capture and post-production disciplines. From being one of the earliest adopters of digital cameras to using the very first edition of Photoshop, Tim has always taken the leading edge in the digital world.
He has always felt and continues to embrace the notion that capturing the scene is only 50% of the final image equation. With equal emphasis on photographic technique and post-production discipline, Tim is the ideal mentor to take your photographic imaging pursuits to the next level. His in-classroom and in-field teaching styles make advanced imaging easier for even the most novice photographer. Tim is the ideal instructor to learn from if you wish to improve your imaging craft.
Questions About This Class...
Frequently Asked Class...
FAQ - Why Choose Soft Lite Workshops?
This is the toughest and easiest of all the FAQs to write! Why so tough? Let’s face it: many workshop providers are in the marketplace today, and words are free. Why so easy? Because we say what we mean and mean what we say.
FAQ - What Is A "Destination Photography Workshop?"
That’s a good question, and we have an equally good answer for you! In a destination photography workshop, we take you to a specific destination, having already scouted ideal locations. While at that destination, we guide you through various photographic opportunities, helping you with advanced photographic techniques and reinforcing your composition style.
FAQ - Can I Get A Single Room If I So Desire?
The short answer is, of course! The longer answer is we will do everything possible to make that happen, and in most cases, it is not a problem. However, in some locations, depending on how busy an area may be or the possibility of minimal services, we may not be able to fulfill your request. But we will certainly give it our best shot.
FAQ - Pricing
All workshop pricing is quoted per person and based upon double occupancy lodging arrangements. Please upgrade to single occupancy lodging for a private room; we will make every attempt to accommodate that request. For this wishing to arrive early or depart later than the planned dates for the selected workshop, we can make those accommodations for you. We will extend your reservation as requested and will facilitate keeping you in the same room as during your workshop stay.
FAQ - Do I Need To Be An Experienced Photographer To Attend A Workshop
Absolutely Not! If you are familiar with your camera system, we can take you to the next level. As a personal baseline, it would be best if your familiarity included exposure settings, exposure modes, and the ability to adjust exposure compensation. If you can manage those things, we can assist you in getting to creatively correct exposures and finding compelling compositions.
FAQ - How Can I Be Ready For My Destionation Photography Workshop?
Wow, that’s a loaded question! There are so many different things to think about. Where do you start?
FAQ - I Have Questions Prior To Booking A Workshop, May I Contact You?
Of course! There are several ways to reach us. If the question is generic, the best contact path would be through the Contact option on the main menu of the Soft Lite Workshops website. On the other hand, if the question is specific to an upcoming workshop, it would be best to use the contact link on the Event Details page for that workshop; that way, the question automatically gets directed to the appropriate person.
FAQ - What Is The Typical Group Size?
For each workshop, we specify a Minimum group size and a Maximum group size. When you look at the Event Details for any workshop, you will see that information listed for that workshop.
FAQ - Do You Offer Discounts For Non-Photographers
The short answer is no. It would be nice if we could, but our research tells us that doing this is impractical. Experience tells us that more often than not, an attending companion wants to hang out with their travel buddy and, in the end, does the same things their companion is doing, leaving us with the same costs and logistics to manage for both the photographer and the non-photographer.
FAQ - Do I Need To Worry About Model Releases?
In short, no, as long as the images you create are for editorial work and not intended to be commercially used. As a practical concern, local models are compensated for their time and, as such, are content with that compensation.
FAQ - Can I Request To Share A Room With Another Workshop Participant?
In today’s day and age, we need to answer this carefully! We will make every attempt to accommodate all lodging requests that we receive. Pairing up roommates in mutual agreement about lodging arrangements is one of the most straightforward tasks for us to accomplish. Please be sure that your intended roommate agrees with your request so they are not surprised by our arrangements on their behalf.
FAQ - What Camera Equipment Should I Bring?
This is one of those questions that can be difficult to answer. Not because we don’t have preferences and recommendations, we do, but we are always cautious about the notion of “pushing” people into equipment decisions. A long-standing quote in photography goes something like this: “What’s the best camera?” “The one that’s in your hand.” It’s tongue-in-cheek, but there’s a lot of truth in those simple words.
FAQ - Instruction While At A Soft Lite Workshops Workshop...
At Soft Lite Workshops, we are all about sharing our passion for acquiring fine art images while out in the field. Nothing is more rewarding than showing our participants outstanding image opportunities and how to capture them. Over the years, we have learned and embraced a wide variety of techniques for optimizing our image-capture capabilities, and we love to share those techniques with our workshop members. Remember, at our workshops, we are committed to helping you bring home some of the best images of your life.
