• Cleaning supplies for your camera (including a rocket blower)

I know from experience that large group settings tend to be overwhelming. That's why I am intentionally keeping groups small, even if larger groups would mean more profits for me. I want to be able to focus on your unique goals, on your individual struggles with the camera, on your photographs. That kind of care and attention is non-negotiable. Hence, there’s a strict cap of six participants per workshop. But: A small group means this workshop will fully book quickly. So don’t delay!

Please note that there is a minimum of 4 participants required in order for the workshop to commence as planned — otherwise the workshop will be canceled and the fee will be refunded to you, in which case you are responsible for any potential travel costs incurred at that point. That is why I strongly recommend (but don’t require) you get travel insurance.

Your workshop booking is non-refundable but fully transferable. That means if you can't attend for any reason, you can transfer your booking to a photographer friend. But let's face it: You're not going to let this opportunity slip through your fingers, right?! 

However: To protect yourself for any eventualities, please note that I strongly recommend (but do not require) you obtain travel insurance!

Here's the fine print of my cancellation policy — I know you don't want any surprises:

“Participant understands that the Price will not be refunded, credited or pro-rated.   It is Participant’s responsibility to ensure that Participant is present for the duration of the Workshop. Participant may transfer their Workshop registration to another individual only with Gesing’s prior written consent, and consent to transfer is not guaranteed.   Any transfer must be completed no fewer than thirty (30) days prior to the start date of the Workshop, and Participant is responsible for the logistics of any transfer.

In the event that Gesing must change Workshop details, Gesing will make a reasonable effort to provide timely notice of such changes to Participant, but Gesing will not provide refunds.

Each Workshop has a minimum number of participants as stated in its description.  In the event that a particular Workshop is less than 50% booked 30 days prior to the Workshop date, Gesing reserves the right to cancel the Workshop.

In the event that Gesing cancels the Workshop, Gesing will timely provide a refund to Participant of the Price paid by Participant; Participant may choose whether to receive a refund or a credit towards a future Workshop.  Gesing is not responsible for damages incurred by Participant in reliance on this Agreement.”

You need to be at least 18 years of age in order to participate.
