Ice Cave Photo Tours
March 2023
Subject to safe ice conditions
Every winter, sheets of ice descend from the cliffs and sandstone caves of the south shore of Lake Superior. Using the town of Munising, Michigan as our base of operations, we will explore the best caves and ice formations. Traveling in-tow behind a snowmobile, you'll be able to visit the caves safely and comfortably for a unique and unforgettable photo experience.

Tanzania Photo Safari

Join world-renowned photo pros Rick Sammon and Ian Plant in Tanzania for a once-in-a-lifetime photo adventure! Spend 10 days in Tanzania photographing its amazing wildlife and scenery. Tanzania is a top wildlife photography destination, famous for its abundant wildlife. Millions of wildebeest and zebra cover the plains, and the wide availability of prey draws an abundance of predators, including lions, leopards, and cheetahs.
Big Cypress Bayou Photo Tour
All 2023 dates sold out (wait list only)
The cypress swamps of Lake Caddo and the Big Cypress Bayou in Texas are places of wild, haunting beauty. Clad in Spanish moss, the trees take on expressive shapes. The bayou comes colorfully alive in autumn, with an explosion of reds, oranges, and yellows. On this photo tour, we'll use a small inflatable (Zodiac-type) boat to explore the hidden, intimate, and wild places of the bayou. The tour is limited to three people at a time, and it presents a unique opportunity to photograph the bayou and make photos that stand out from the rest.
Norway Winter Tour

Our focus is capturing unique images of ice/winter, the breathtakingly beautiful and world renowned mountains, colorful fjords and pristine beaches, as well as the picturesque and authentic red Lofoten cabins. Photographic opportunities are present around every single corner.
