Private landscape photography workshops and tours are available.  The format of these tours are based on the Banff National Park day tour but can be customized including a day trip to Jasper and back.  A return photography trip to Jasper is longer than the regular day trips but is offered at the regular full day rate.  Private overnight trips are available and are particularly effective when the priority is Grizzly bear Photography in the Spring.  He is very experienced in organizing large group and custom traveling adventures and can put a tour together a custom tour to highlight whatever you want too do.  Just contact me to talk about the details.

  • Sept. 2017 – Myself, Kazue and a team of other industry professionals hosted our annual fully catered, Lake O’Hara photography tour.  Lake O’Hara is one of the best places in the Rockies to photograph the famous alpine larches at treeline when their needles turn a brilliant yellow.  The fall colours of the larches set high in the mountains at and above the tree line offer a WORLD CLASS landscape photography destination.  For more details, and to registration, please visit the Lake O’Hara tour page for up to date information.
  • Oct. 13-15, and Oct. 20-22, 2017 – Join me on the 2017 Cape Breton Island Fall Colours Landscape Photography tours where I’ll show you my beautiful hometown.  Please follow this link for more info and to register for the Cape Breton Island Fall Colours and Whale Photography Tour.  We’ll tour and photograph the colourful maple forests in the numerous colourful valleys and on the sub arctic plateau in and around Cape Breton Island National Park, Canada’s second oldest national park.  We’ll top it off with an ocean cruise to photograph whales, seabirds and the mountains draped in red,  orange and gold from the ocean (weather permitting).  This will be a unique tour from a local’s perspective where I’ll show you the special little places I used to explore during my teenage years and into my mid twenties before moving across the country to Banff, Banff National Park.  Expect to visit a series of locations that few self guided, or guided, tourist would be able to see in a trip of similar length.  I’m going to show you the best of the best of Cape Breton Island.
