Upcoming Workshops

Artists have been drawn by the light and landscape of Monhegan Island for over 150 years. Here is your opportunity for such an experience on this unique island location, available to only six photographers! With limited cell phone and internet service, you will be unfettered by distractions and at your own pace explore this beautiful and accessible island.

Arrival on Sunday by ferry gives time to begin exploring. Monday through Friday, you will work on a project of your choosing. Everywhere is within walking distance, and there is no rush to be anywhere, except when you want to be. 

With over nine miles of trails along some of the highest seaside cliffs in Maine, the Monhegan Light, Cathedral Woods, beaches, coves, and headlands offer a variety of landscapes to capture your imagination! Expect to walk between 3 and 5 miles per day.

There are few better destinations than Tuscany for lovers of pastoral landscapes, art, history, fine wine, and authentic Italian cuisine. From October 14 to 24, 2026, fine art photographer Tillman Crane will host a photography workshop limited to seven participants. The workshop will begin with three nights at a superb and perfectly located boutique hotel in the city center of Florence, the capital of the Italian Renaissance.

Picture this: Early spring in Great Smoky Mountains National Park, a place of tranquility and timeless beauty, a paradise for landscape photographers. The park’s intimate landscapes and historic structures offer endless photo opportunities. With fewer visitors during this season, we’ll photograph the hidden gems in the quiet of this remarkable destination.

Our journey begins by the side of the Little River, where you can enjoy the cascade of water over rocks and gentle falls. Further along, we’ll reach Cades Cove, where historic churches and cabins offer a glimpse into the past. Once a mountainside laid bare by logging, this park has witnessed one of nature’s remarkable reclamation projects and is now revered as one of America’s most stunning sanctuaries.

Join me for a week of creative discovery in Acadia National Park, an ever-changing campus for photographers! The first national park created entirely through generous land donations from private citizens, it now spans over 47,000 acres. It’s early spring, and you won’t want to miss this opportunity to be in this amazing landscape before the summer peak season. 

The weather can vary dramatically – fog, sun, and rain can occur, often and throughout the same day. With fewer people, you will have access to revisit locations in the shifting light, adding to the richness of your images. 

What goes on between your ears is more important than what is in your hands. And you (almost) always have your iPhone with you. Guided by photographer Tillman Crane, this class will help you combine the two.

Discover the timeless beauty of Platinum/Palladium printing, turning your photographs into printed masterpieces in this hands-on workshop led by Tillman Crane.

If this is your first time making a platinum print, this workshop will give you the knowledge and experience you need to make them in your darkroom. More experienced platinum printers can use this workshop to build on their skill set and solve printing problems. This workshop is not suitable for someone looking to make final prints for an exhibition. This service is available in my Platinum Atelier.

This advanced workshop is designed for experienced platinum/palladium printers who want to refine their technique, expand their understanding of the process, and achieve greater control and consistency in their prints. Through focused demonstrations, in-depth discussions, and extensive hands-on printing, participants will deepen their mastery of the Traditional Platinum/Palladium Process while exploring variations, including Palladium-only printing and the NA2 Process.
