Join us at the peak of the holiday season for a night photography stroll filled with lights and magic as we explore the tiny houses of Oak Bluffs.

While many of these tiny homes go dark for the winter, several become aglow with the flare of a Christmas story book.

Our workshop group meets at the steamship terminal in Woods Hole where we will begin our journey to the Vineyard.  Once there, we will be transported to Oak Bluffs - starting in the neighborhood just after twilight, eventually emerging into Ocean Park to photograph the decorations around the gazebo. Your roundtrip steamship ticket and island transportation is included in your enrollment.

We'll then be transported back to the docks where we will make the return trip to Woods Hole. Our time shooting on the island is approximately four hours.

This event is limited to just six participants. If you've wanted the opportunity to shoot the very best of New England during the holidays with a few like minded people, this is it!

1. A digital camera with a wide angle lens. A basic 18-55mm like the one you received with your camera is fine!

2. A sturdy tripod. It shouldn't shake or have any loose parts. Long exposures require complete stillness.

3. A shutter release cable which will allow your camera to take long exposures (longer than 30 seconds.)

4. Bring your gloves. It's winter! But seriously, dress appropriately. A winter hat and jacket, toasty socks and warm gloves will make your experience a lot better. If there's any snow on the ground, make sure your boots are waterproof.

Participants should be in good physical health. An avoidable disruption to the group due to known health limitations or over-stating capabilities can spoil the experience for everyone, not just you. When registering for this workshop, you are certifying the following:

• You can carry your camera gear throughout the field shoot without assistance.

• You are not taking medications that are known to cause dizziness or compromise balance as a potential side effect.

• At least six months have passed since having surgeries that impact mobility including but not limited to knee, shoulder or back correction.

• Have not fallen at another group event due to medical or balance issues within the last 12 months.

• Enrollment: Your spot is confirmed once payment is received. A confirmation email will follow within 72 hours.

• Refunds: Workshop and tour fees are non-refundable. Space is limited, and your enrollment prevents others from attending. Your ticket applies to the event for which you are registered and is not transferrable to a later event.

• What’s Included: Many events include instructional videos, printed or electronic materials, and a field shoot. Even if you cannot attend the field portion, you’ll still receive significant educational value.

• Rescheduling by Cape Nights: If a field shoot is postponed due to weather, emergencies, or other unforeseen circumstances, your registration will transfer to the new date. If you can’t attend, you may switch to a comparable event (e.g., single-night to single-night). Credits cannot be transferred across different products (e.g., workshops vs. tours).

• Full Cancellations: If an event is fully cancelled and no educational content has been provided, all payments will be refunded.

• Travel Costs: We are not responsible for outside expenses (e.g., airfare, lodging). Travel insurance is recommended.
