CURIOUS ABOUT WHAT MAKES A WORKSHOP TRULY MEANINGFUL?
“His workshop was well-organized, and he challenged me to examine the scene with intention and a critical eye, and provided invaluable feedback. By the end, I also gained a fresh perspective on other aspects of my life from what I learned.”
— Jing Yang - Foster City, California
What Photographer’s are Saying:
“Scott helped me refine my technical skills and taught me new techniques. But most significantly, he encouraged me to 'feel' as much as 'think' about my photographs which is something that has already had quite a profound affect on me. I came away with a greater confidence in my photography and some great images, but most importantly a renewed excitement, passion and focus for why I go out shooting in the first place.”
— Amanda Morrison - London, England
“Scott’s approach to workshops is unlike any others I have seen. The focus is on intention and how to express depth and mood. Worth every second. I imagine everyone could benefit from his knowledge and especially his approach.”
— Randy Root - Telluride, Colorado
“This was an exceptional experience. Mixing philosophy with technology and art with science, I learned how photography can be a way to appreciate the landscapes we see and share the essence of that vision.”
— Tremont Parrino - Olympia, Washington
“He is an awesome coach and teacher. He challenged me and brought my photography to a new level. He is intelligent and a great conversationalist. Most importantly, it was so much fun!”
— Susan Nickerson-Graham - British Columbia, Canada
“After much research of various workshop opportunities, Scott’s professionalism, organization of content, and presentation was so far above what else was available it made for a pretty obvious choice. I honestly believe my photography skills grew 100x after my workshop with Scott!”
— Ryan Waddell - Sacramento, California
“As an instructor, he is the type of teacher you won’t ever forget as he demands the best of you. With great instincts and a passion for photography he brings order and integrity to whatever practices you had with your photography.”
— Karen Lange - Manly, Australia
“Whatever your level, Scott will raise it – and you’ll have a blast doing it!"”
— Ilya Mirman - Sudbury, Massachusetts
HOW AN NFL STAR FOOTBALL PLAYER INSPIRED A NEW WORKSHOP
Brandin Cooks first sparked to Reither’s photographs in 2017 and became a collector. The two talked at length about how photography could be a portal to a deeper awareness of life. That way of thinking clicked with Cooks. Once back home, Cooks decided to purchase a camera - a sturdy Leica - and began taking his own photographs. While he was disciplined on learning all the tech skills necessary for getting a good shot, letting loose his artistic self was still proving to be a challenge. So Brandin decided to book Scott for a private multi-day workshop in Maui (and later Oregon) which lead to a much more involved mentoring relationship. Cooks was inspired by how Reither prefers to teach landscape photography from the inside out - starting with an emotional connection to a place and then shaping the composition from there. That way of seeing made a difference to Cooks. It made photography intimately personal and more privately creative.
