Transform Your Photography
at America's Most Legendary Fine Art Studio

Step Into Edward Weston's Living Legacy

Imagine creating art in the very place where Edward Weston created his famous photographs, working at the same time as photographers like Ansel Adams. For over 25 years, Kim & Gina Weston have welcomed photographers to Wildcat Hill—Edward's former home and darkroom—for a transformative workshop in fine art nude photography.

Grounded in four generations of Weston family excellence, this experience offers a rare opportunity to elevate your creative vision in a setting rich with photographic history. Most students shoot digitally, though the spirit of traditional film and darkroom practices still echoes through the hills.

Join us at Wildcat Hill—your private creative sanctuary for four unforgettable days.

PROFESSIONAL ART MODELS

Experience the difference of working with true professionals. Our respected fine-art models have collaborated with the Westons for years, creating an atmosphere of trust and artistic excellence. With our exclusive 2:1 photographer-to-model ratio, you'll enjoy maximum privacy, creative freedom, and shooting time in each stunning location.

This isn't just about technique—Zach and Kim will guide you through the art of respectful, productive model relationships that elevate both your work and your professionalism. These partnerships are the foundation of extraordinary nude photography.

INSTRUCTION + CRITIQUE

Your breakthrough moments happen here. Zach and Kim Weston become your personal mentors, working one-on-one with you on lighting mastery, compelling composition, authentic model direction, and discovering your unique artistic voice.

But the learning doesn't stop with shooting. After your first day, you'll participate in a focused critique session where they provide personalized feedback that transforms your approach for the remaining sessions. This isn't just evaluation—it's acceleration of your artistic growth.

Ready to dive deeper? On your first evening, you're invited (but not required) to share your existing work. This helps your instructors understand your photographic style and tailor their instruction to unlock your full potential.
