I’m thrilled to be offering photography workshops! We’ve already been to some of the coolest places on the planet, and we’ll keep striving to find the best locations to bring our guests. I am discovering that from teaching, I learn what I need to know inside and out, the important virtues of photography. What for me has become second nature must be carefully mapped into a guide of truths, concepts and tips that are presented in different ways depending on location of the workshop and level of the photographer, our guest.
Marc Muench is a professional landscape and wildlife photographer. He is preceded by his father, David Muench, and grandfather, Joseph Muench. Marc has spent a lifetime seeking composition, light, and decisive moments in the outdoor world. His life is now devoted to teaching others how important these concepts are in their quest to learn photography.
Marc’s work is inspired by the time he spent in the field throughout his childhood, traveling with his family to most of the National Parks, Wildlife preserves, and Wildernesses throughout the US. Marc’s commercial and personal work focused on the largely undeveloped landscape as a theme. His commercial work throughout the 90s included such advertising agencies as Chiat/Day, McCann, and more. His work appeared as feature articles in National Geographic, Outside, Arizona Highways, etc. Additionally, Marc is focused on teaching photography through workshops and publications, including The Art of Seeing and The Art of Luminosity here.
“Photography provides a lifelong learning curve, which is why I’ve always focused on it as a profession. However, I am never bored of it and continually inspired by the diversity of people and places I’ve experienced through my photographic eyes”.

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.
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.
This was our 6th outing with Muench Workshops and I can't say enough good things about Marc Muench and Andy Williams. Aided by local Viking Skarphedinn Thrainsson they provided a once-in-a-lifetime photographic experience. Every time I go out with them I learn something about photography. Beyond that, they went above and beyond in taking care of our group. If any of my photographer friends are considering a workshop they can't go wrong by going with Muench Workshops.
