Venice & The Dolomites Italy Guided Photo Tour
September 21-30, 2023
The Dolomite Mountain Range of northern Italy is one of the most breathtaking photographic locations on the planet. Also known as the Italian Alps, the Dolomites are made up of seemingly endless craggy mountains and completely photogenic traditional villages nestled below. The entire area of the Dolomites is a UNESCO world heritage site that boasts hundreds of peaks and at least 20 which soar to almost 10,000 feet. Add in a plethora of easily accessed mountain lakes which reflect the impressive mountains and you have yourself the recipe for perfect scenic photography. Venice is a city like no other. Everything here floats, appears to float, or rides on water. Venice has no roads, no cars and no motorbikes. Everyone and everything gets around by boat. We’ll travel through both of these areas on this tour. Join my guided photography tour and capture it all!

Colorado Fall Color Guided Photo Tour

The fall color in Colorado has to be experienced to be believed. Yellow aspen trees turn entire hillsides to gold. The deepest blue skies you can imagine compete for attention with jagged, snowcapped peaks. The colors, shapes and patterns are as awesome and as beautiful as nature gets. The mountains and natural areas we’ll visit are some of the most spectacular locations on Earth, and when you add in the amazing colors of autumn you won’t find a better place to be with a camera during the fall season.

2024 GUIDED PHOTOGRAPHY TOURS

Florida Birds & Wildlife Guided Photo Tour Experience
February 15-20, 2024
The birdlife in Florida is simply awesome. The birds are big, friendly and full of color. During the Spring breeding and nesting season, many spectacular species concentrate on nest building, attracting members of the opposite sex, and feeding their young and thus they ignore people. This allows us photographers to GET CLOSE – which is a great thing when it comes to photographing birds. We’ll point our cameras at a variety of herons, egrets, storks, ibis, terns and other wildlife as we tour the best bird places on Florida’s east coast. We’ll photograph the AWESOME feeding frenzy of Osprey and various Terns diving for fish after fish. Join my guided photography tour and capture it all!

Galapagos Islands Yacht-Based Tour & Guided Photography Experience
April 6-15, 2024
The isolated and stunning Galapagos Islands offer a unique experience unlike anyplace else. The wildlife displays must be seen to be believed – the animals have no innate fear of humans and simply go about their routines while ignoring people. The volcanic islands are remote and beautiful, the sunrises and sunsets are spectacular. The crystal clear water is perfect for snorkeling amongst fish, turtles and sea lions. On this Galapagos Islands photo tour we’ll experience everything while living aboard a small (16 passenger) yacht as we cruise to the various islands and photograph along the way. 10 days/9 nights are included.
