This tour provides a rare opportunity to focus on photographing the stunning scenery of Skagway and the surrounding area with a local, professional photography guide.
Your guide will select his favorite locations and provide you with ample time to set up the best shots. Depending on conditions, you may be shooting the dramatic scenery of the White Pass summit -- a wonderland of azure lakes and stunted forests. Alternatively, you may travel along the scenic coastline towards the former gold rush town of Dyea.
The emphasis is on learning and taking time for excellent photography rather than the photography being incidental. Your guide will suggest shots and help you get the most out of your camera or smartphone. He will discuss issues such as composition, exposure, and depth of field. Even a simple point-and-shoot camera or a phone can take great photos.
The goal is to identify your present level of photography and introduce and advance you to the next level. The theme is flexibility rather than adherence to a rigid schedule.
