For photographers looking to dust off their skills, or build some new ones, summer photography workshops are a great way to score a learning vacation that can also be a tax write-off.
Sure, the programs can be a lot of work, but the beautiful settings, celebrity instructors and social collaboration are often stronger draws than the actual training.
We've compiled a list of our favorite summer and fall photography-workshop programs. If you work for a company that has a budget for vocational instruction, these are some of the best ways you could spend it. (Did we miss any? Please let us know in the comments.)
