We’ve been thrilling our guests since our very first workshop in 2007. Hundreds of workshops around the world later, clients keep returning, with nearly 75% of our workshops filled by repeat clients. Here’s what some of them have to say.
If you’d like to speak with a client of ours, or if you have any questions about our workshops, contact us by email or phone and we’ll be there for you!
Lisa, I can't thank you enough for everything, you were so patient with me, you taught me so much and thanks to that I evolved as a person and as a photographer. I learned many things I didn't know, and no matter how many times I asked you, you always explained them to me, you are a great teacher!
We learn so much from the critiques with Andy! Thanks!!!!
The best workshop I have ever been on. Andy kept on raising the bar each day. I saw and experienced Mongolia in the way that I always dreamed about. The only way to describe this workshop is EPIC. The memories will last a lifetime.
Wayne was terrific. He was available as much or as little as I needed. He asked what our individual goals for the workshop were and then followed up as needed with each of us. I wanted to work on improving my composition skills, and Wayne checked in with me on each shoot, sometimes several times, and worked with me to help me improve. His instruction was top-notch!
I had a great time and really learned a lot. I will definitely be on another workshop with you guys in the future.
The workshop exceeded expectations! Randy and Ceci are outstanding professionals who work exceptionally well as a team. They obviously have a deep respect for each other and that translates well into the way they built their very positive relationships with us as individuals and as a team. Gotta love the way Randy leads, directs, coaches suggests, and shares his vast knowledge of the craft. Ceci is a great coach and knows the mountains like no other so her coaching on composition was particularly valuable.
Thanks, Marc for an incredible class! My brain is swimming! Every workshop I learn more and want to do more shooting and now better editing, even printing!
Excellent, particularly in Lofoten. Cody did a great job putting us in the best location given the light and weather at any particular time.
Wayne and Kevin were phenomenal and I learned a ton! Very excited about the images I took and the new techniques I learned. Far surpassed my expectations!
Andy was beyond hospitable and would have done everything possible to make certain that everyone was having a good time and had everything that they needed. Andy's outward personality and leadership are much appreciated.
Marc's creative ability and his patient approach make learning fun and easy. He is sincere yet laid back and I enjoyed his spontaneous comments and funny remarks.
One thing that really sets Muench Workshops apart is the personal attention in the months leading up to the adventure. I was astonished that Andy called me directly to talk about the workshop when I emailed my interest. It meant the world to me that he cared enough to work with me to help me get to the point of being able to make the decision to attend. The opportunity to ask him questions during the prep for the workshop was fantastic and helped take some of the guesswork out of the prep regarding adequate layers. As it turned out, without that interaction, I would not have upgraded my already significant cold-weather gear (which was critical for this adventure) ...and been cold. I never expected -20 degree boots would not be sufficient!
This was my second trip with Kevin. I really like his low-key attitude. Without question, Kevin was most interested in our photographic success and having fun. He was willing to stay out as late as required in our attempts to see and photograph the Aurora. He was willing to do what it took to get shots for us. I have been on other trips where that was not the case.
Noel and Michael were simply fantastic. They are both so passionate about photography and share their love for it through guiding, teaching. They really cared, too, about our comfort and how we were doing when the hiking was tough. I think I should just adopt them both. True professionals. They read the weather conditions and made the best choices for us to get beautiful images. They knew every spot, scouted ahead of time. They were able to change on a dime with our plans as the weather changed fast. They worked with each student to help us with details of lens choices, aperture, and ISO, speed, composition. And the Lightroom sessions were great, both personal help and group sessions. I learned so much. I am not as experienced as many were on the trip and it was a terrific experience.
Greg Vaughn is a class act. He is an excellent instructor and a gentleman. Up till now, I have booked trips based on location, but in the future, I might book a trip I would otherwise not be too excited about if he was to be the instructor.
One of the factors that made this trip unique was our local guide, Noel Rodgers. His intimate knowledge of the locations was critical to maximizing our photo opportunities with the shifting weather, both during the workshop and the private extension afterward with me, Thomas, and Gero.
Greg has to be one of the most kind and patient photographers/human beings I have ever met. His photographic knowledge and knowledge of Olympic national park are outstanding.
Of the several photo workshops I have attended, this one had the best instruction. Michael and Mike were proactive in offering help and advice. The critiques were honest, helpful, and encouraging.
Marc was amazing!! We knew about the talent but what he demonstrated with the group was beyond that. He was extremely patient and fun to be around. He made the grayish thing look amazing... I enjoyed meeting all the great people that were part of the shop and I would love to do it again!!! FYI.. The food was awesome as well!! Thank you for a great experience !!
Marc's classroom critique was the best I have experienced. He has a nice touch that is substantive yet does not intimidate. His balanced comments and demonstrations were most helpful to everyone.
