VISIONQUEST®

The camera is an instrument where one receives messages from another world. That world is mysterious — both within and outside the individual. Integrative Photography is an integral and essential way of seeing and discovering that world.

What and how a person photographs can offer considerable insight and illumination that in turn, develops both craft and artistic expression. My students are encouraged to discover and understand their motivation for taking a picture; why they point the camera and click the shutter, and how they process the image later.

Integration occurs whenever motivation for taking the picture and the meaning of the image are connected in a resonant way. It is a unique way of seeing, of developing your own photographic style, a VisionQuest®.

To date I have conducted many VisionQuests in the deserts of the American Southwest.  Travels have also included excursions to Europe, Central America, and Asia.

Because of the instructional quality of these VisionQuests, the groups I lead are always small and kept to within a maximum of fifteen people for any trip.  Below are some of the countries and places we have traveled as a group. In addition you will see many of the places I have scouted for future VisionsQuests.
