We highly recommend travel insurance. If you have a medical emergency, injury, loss of luggage, delay of trip, trip cancellation, or a whole host of other reasons – this can end up reimbursing you for lost
expenses. We use World Nomads when we travel, which is also recommended by the National
Geographic, Lonely Planet, and many more. Many other companies such as AAA offer a similar service, but no matter which you use, it can come in very handy. This has paid off
for people who have signed up for our workshops more than once, either from damaged gear or a need to cancel the trip.

Sometimes on workshops rain and inclement weather can spoil shooting conditions. We plan on times of year to minimize this possibility. In the event of uncontrollable weather circumstances that force a change in plans, we do everything we can to deliver a quality learning experience with changing conditions. We cannot refund any part of your payment due to weather.
