Wildlife Photography Instruction

The best way to learn wildlife photography technique is in the field with an instructor and your camera while in the presence of wildlife.
"...A properly shot professional photograph is one that rolls out of the camera with few adjustments needed..."
• Learning digital photography is a combination of mastering computer skills, as well as honing camera skills. Many of our clients have said that they've taken photography seminars and workshops in the past and spent the entire time on a computer. They came out with a good knowledge of Photoshop, but didn't grasp how to operate their cameras in the field.
They were no better a photographer than when they started, as they continued to make the same shooting mistakes as before.

On EXPEDITION WILD™ photography expeditions, you'll learn how to use your camera functions and settings properly so you won't need significant repair work afterwards in Photoshop. A properly shot professional photograph is one that rolls out of the camera with few adjustments needed.
In many ways, learning solid camera technique is far more important than vast image editing skills, because even the best software can't fix an improperly shot photograph.
On EXPEDITION WILD™ photography expeditions you'll also learn to discern what's critical and, as importantly, what's not, to achieve the successful photographic results you want.
We focus on the techniques that will help you fully express ideas in your own work on the expedition and beyond. In the evenings we follow up with critique and analysis sessions.
