WHY JOIN A TOUR OR WORKSHOP WITH ME?
Because you’ll be sure to make the most of your time in any given location by traveling with a professional who knows where to go and when to be there, so you can relax and get the best photos of your life. It’s as simple as that.
Workshop/tour fees are for tuition. You are paying to have a location expert and professional photographer with you throughout the session. I provide location knowledge, expert photography help in the field, I complete all necessary planning and logistics for the trip. I also offer my advice on composition and camera settings while in the field, provide enthusiastic support as we travel together, and lead all classroom and critique sessions. I'll help with any equipment problems or difficulties, I'll keep the group excited to get up early and to stay late. I'll lead you to the right places to get the best photos possible.

North America Tours
On North American tours, your transportation, and meals are in addition to the tuition cost. I will facilitate and pay for all lodging needs for the duration of the tour. I make group reservations and secure enough rooms for each person or couple to have a room for the tour.
I am happy to help facilitate car sharing if you need - please ask about this.
Again, even on my North American tours I am including 5 nights of accommodation in your tuition price. Why? Because lodging has become almost impossible to find in many locations and it simply seemed easier for me to make room reservations for everyone and to pay for those in advance.
International Tours
On my international wildlife, cultural and scenic photo tours, most lodging and most ground transportation during the tour is included in the tuition cost. Some meals (usually breakfast) are included. Some international tours such as my Costa Rica and Galapagos tours also include meals. Check each tour page individually to learn more.

Trip Cancellation Information
I reserve the right to cancel any tour or workshop due to insufficient registration. In such a case, all monies collected, including deposits will be refunded. If the tour or workshop is cancelled, you will be notified at least 30 days in advance. If the tour or workshop is cancelled due to instructor illness, natural disaster, or other uncontrollable reasons, all monies will be refunded. Tours rescheduled due to impacts of Covid 19 are not cancelled, they are simply postponed. I cannot be held responsible for other associated costs, such as unforeseen travel expenses, delays, etc. and I therefore highly recommend trip insurance. I understand that sometimes people need to make last minute cancellations due to illness, family, or business matters. Unfortunately, I am unable to make last minute refunds or provide credit on future workshops due to these last minute cancellations. Again, a trip insurance policy that is "cancel for any reason" is highly recommended. *If I can fill your cancelled spot on the workshop or tour, all money, minus $250 processing fee, will be refunded. |
Travel InsuranceI don't have any affiliation with any insurance company, I simply did some research so you don't have to. I highly recommend a travel policy that is "cancel for any reason". Here are some places where you might get trip or travel insurance:
