Join us and Monika Deviat for a creative & inspirational presentation on how to photograph incredible winter photos in the freezing cold!
Winter offers a unique canvas for creativity, but the cold season has its challenges for photographers. In this presentation, we'll explore how to harness the beauty of winter, find inspiration in snow and ice-covered landscapes, and work with the distinctive light and mood of the season. Learn techniques that range from shooting in bright sun on snow to complete darkness. The winter nights are long in Alberta, offering many opportunities for beautiful nightscapes. Ice and snow details are remarkable and can captivate and challenge your eye.
Monika will share essential tips on protecting your gear in cold conditions and managing the transition from your home, car, etc. to the outdoors. She’ll also cover how to stay warm while photographing in winter, helping you stay motivated and safe, even in the harshest temperatures.

About Monika Deviat:
As a photographer, Monika Deviat is best known for her distinctive and award-winning nightscapes and landscape images. She is driven to capture unique scenes under the night sky and inspire a sense of wonder, especially in those who cannot see the stars where they live. Monika's photography does not fit into a single niche, though. She is also a concert, portrait, and commercial photographer, a dynamic workshop leader, speaker, and writer based in Alberta.
Monika's start in photography began with her love of heavy metal. She has had the opportunity to photograph many of her favourite bands, from local shows to many festivals across North America and even to international waters on the world's largest heavy metal cruise. While travelling in 2014, Monika had the chance to try photographing the Milky Way, and in 2015, night photography had hooked her in. This passion for night photography led her to the outdoors, and she has become an avid mountain explorer in the Canadian Rockies.
