PARTNERSHIPS

I’m glad you’re here! Here’s what people are saying

  • “Winter workshop in the Blue Ridge mountains was outstanding. Tommy alters the itinerary to capture the best of different locations for sunrise, sunset and in between- he goes deep on data to maximize the chances of favorable conditions. He has a painterly eye for composition, and has the technical prowess to make it all happen. Learned a ton!”

  • “I just did the High Country Winter Master Class with Tommy White. Tommy knows where and when to get “the shot” and helps you with processing to get an amazing image. I always learn a lot but more importantly, have a great time on their workshops. I highly recommend Tommy White!”

  • “Tommy is a wonderful photographer and guide. And a nice guy. I hired him for two half day sessions … weather prevented most of them and he was very flexible about rescheduling. We did get to spend a couple hours and he clearly knows the Blowing Rock and Grandfather Mountain best spots like the back of his hand. It is so worth it to hire a guide who knows exactly where to go. Highly recommend Tommy White!”

  • “I have had several workshops with Tommy and a private workshop yesterday in Boone. He is fantastic. I learned a lot -- from the best locations, how to set up a shot, to even learning more about my camera. If you want to learn about landscape photography I recommend him highly. I got more for my money than I expect. It was a great day. Thanks Tommy!”

  • He clearly knows the Blowing Rock and Grandfather Mountain best spots like the back of his hand. It is so worth it to hire a guide who knows exactly where to go. Highly recommend Tommy White!

  • I will 100% sign up for more workshops and I would tell anyone who is on the fence or thinking about joining them to go for it! You will find it so worth your time!

  • Great instructor and great clients. If you judge businesses by repeat customers, then you can judge this one highly!
