Join me on an adventure in the Canadian Rockies. This will be my first time leading a trip there, but I was in Banff almost 15 year ago hiking a bunch of trails and photographing at some of the most iconic spots. I fell in love with the beauty of the area and it’s time to go back! This time I will be joined by the very best drivers and expert guides to insure that we make the most of our photography time.
During this 7 day Canadian Rockies Photography Workshop it is prime time to photograph the famous methane bubbles at Abraham Lake. Frozen bubbles are not the only thing on the ticket though—snow covered scenics, icy waterfalls, glacial ice caves, stalactites and stalagmites, and the auroras are just a few of the items on the list of things to photograph. A grey wolf spotting is always a possibility.
Dates: January 16-22, 2027

We will spend at least two full days at Abraham Lake, exploring the endless compositions this lake has to offer. If there is an aurora and we are able to photograph it —we will. Nothing is more captivating than the glow of green and purples dancing over snow capped peaks.
We will be staying at a comfortable hotel in downtown Banff for the duration of the trip. This ideal location offers easy access to most of our photography spots, as well as a wide variety of shops, restaurants, and nearby attractions.
