“I participated in Brian and Emeric’s Workshop in NYC. With them timelapse has no secret for me today. We shot in Central Park, Grand Central, Dumbo, Hoboken (NJ), Governor Island, Washington Square Park, … about 19 shoots. The last day, we developed the timelapses, with the assistance of Emeric and Brian. I ended this workshop very happy with my learning, and today I feel autonomous in the realization of timelapse projects. Thanks to Brian and Emeric for their guidance!”

“I was so fortunate to participate in Emeric and Brian’s first timelapse weekend workshop in NYC. A year earlier, I had joined them for their one-day timelapse workshop at Brooklyn Bridge Park. I had such a wonderful time that I knew I had to do it again. Both Emeric and Brian make every effort to help photographers get the best compositions, give advice on the best bulb ramping settings, and help solve any problems with their cameras if needed. They also brought us to some of the most unique and photogenic spots in NYC. And did I mention that they are fun and welcoming?  These guys are the best at timelapse photography and I can’t wait to join a future workshop with them!”
