General Information

Imagine going to a place . . . any place with your camera, and having a seasoned pro standing next to you, to guide you, encourage you, answer your questions and help you make powerful and heartfelt pictures of what you are seeing. That, in a nutshell, is exactly what Eloquent Light’s Private Workshop program offers.

I remember an important learning experience I had was when I was in physical therapy after a leg injury. I had a coach, who worked with me every day. He explained simply and clearly what the process would be like. He buoyed me up when I wasn’t in the mood to be there and he helped me measure my progress. My coach encouraged me to reach just beyond my ability to keep me challenged (yet safe). This is an ideal teacher to me, and these characteristics are what I work hard to bring to any workshop I teach.

TESTAMONIALS |
“I’ve had the good fortune to work with Craig Varjabedian in three private workshops over the past 18 months. Each of those workshops has been a fun, productive and intense learning experience for me. Craig is a dedicated, experienced, generous and highly engaging teacher. He genuinely wants his students to learn and get full value from their investment of time and money in his workshops.”

“I recently had the opportunity to take a private workshop with Craig Varjabedian, and it was a truly amazing experience. Craig was genuinely interested in my personal photographic vision and patiently worked with me to improve my camera skills. I have participated in many incredible group workshops with Eloquent Light, and highly recommend them. If at all possible, though, I encourage folks to take a private workshop with Eloquent Light; as Craig says, he “ always take(s) you to the best places!”.
