Loved this workshop ! Charly has such an interesting and unique mindset about wildlife photography ! I love the way she sees her photography and describes herself as an artist more than a photographer. I also loved to see her editing process. I've always enjoyed the colors she choose and seeing how she get there with Lightroom is great !

Not to be critical about Charly Savely: it's not a bad workshop, but I feel it is totally mis-priced. I found it interesting to hear about Charly Savely, her development and how she managed to become who she is. I found the part about Wildlife Photography specifically rather thin, but it picked up a few interesting tips about editing pictures. Overall, I think it was worth watching the workshop. However, for 149$ including all rebates, I think one could barely justify the price. Had I paid the sticker price of 300$, I'd be really disappointed for what you get out of this. I have bought courses from photographers like David Yarrow, Elia Locardi or Jimmy Chin in the past and they have way more things to talk about or to teach (in depth and scope) for that price or less.

This was a really fun and informative workshop for anyone hoping to learn more about wildlife photography and editing! I got the most value from the editing sections. I've been editing my own shots in Lightroom and Photoshop for quite a few years now and still walked away with brand new tools and techniques I didn't even know existed in these programs! My boyfriend was also a park ranger at Katmai this past season and knew the guide and pilot featured haha So it was even more cool to see the park from Charly's eyes.

I've been searching for this exact workshop since I returned from Alaska in October. I've also recently taken up hunting/tracking and I find animal behavior completely fascinating. This was a great motivator to take my photography to the next level. Thanks so much Charly! The conservation section was a nice added bonus to the course. (Hooray no pebble mine!)

This workshop was absolutely fantastic. I feel so lucky to have gotten an inside look at Charly's process and how she's developed her style. The videos following her on the photoshoot in Alaska are absolutely breathtaking, they gave me chills. The workshop was filled with so many great tips on how to be a mindful wildlife photographer as well, which is really important for our planet. After having finished this workshop, I definitely feel inspired.

Charly has become one of my favorite wildlife photographers due to the emotion she depicts in her photos. This class was a very helpful guide in settling an internal debate I've been having in regards to realism vs emotion in my editing process. It helped cement the idea that rules are made to be broken and while realism and following guidelines may be what some photographers are seeking, there's just as much merit in doing what looks good to you and finding your unique style. I also appreciated the focus on importance of conservation in wildlife photography and respecting the world and animals you are shooting. We are a visitor in their world and often people forget that. If you are just getting started in photography or find yourself stuck in a rut, this workshop is a great resource. Charly showcases her go to gear, planning, safety, conservation, and gives a look into her editing process.
