CLIENT REVIEWS
A showcase of melting glaciers, alpine meadows, carved valleys, and spectacular lakes, Glacier National Park in Montana is a landscape photographers paradise. While the famous Going-to-the-Sun Road provides stellar views for photographers, we'll also take you off the beaten path to see turquoise alpine lakes, meadows, deep forests, and waterfalls, with the potential to see and photograph wildlife such as grizzly bears. This 5-day adventure we will take you to see some of the most rugged, wild, and incredibly scenic views the Rocky Mountains have to offer.
It’s our goal to provide you a comfortable, fun environment to create powerful, unique compositions, and explore photography settings and techniques to help you enhance your photography skills as we chase the light on this incredible photo tour. If you’re looking for assistance with editing after the workshop to bring out the absolute best of your images, we’ll be there to help with that as well.

Difficulty of the photography workshop
This time of year the sun rises at about 5:30 am and sets at about 9:30 pm in Glacier National Park. We'll be leaving to reach locations before sunrise and not leaving the last location of the day until after sunset. Given the vast landscape, most locations throughout Glacier we will be going to will have some drive time that we'll build into our schedule for the day making each day very full.
We also recommend bringing a change of clothes due to temperatures that can fluctuate from early morning, to evening. Please make sure you have water, snacks or any personal items for the day before we head out. Most locations we won't be close enough to our vehicles to run back to get anything so a small backpack is recommended.
During this workshop we will have some hiking to get to our locations. All the trails we will be hiking on are maintained by the park. Some of these locations we'll hit are just a short walk from where we park. However, some of these hikes may include, but not be limited to, elevation gains up to 800+ ft. and may have short distances that are steep. A good pair of hiking boots and poles are recommended (not required).
Our goal is to get you some of the most incredible views that Glacier National Park has to offer. These amazing landscape views are breathtaking and will give you plenty of opportunity to capture stunning images.
