Had a great time! Colin was fantastic and really took the time to teach some tips and tricks with my gear. Please, if you get the chance, take this tour. Captured a few things we were not even looking for that turned into great photos.
Response from Host, Sep 2022
I am so glad to hear that Colin was a great guide for you, and that you learned new things. That is what we strive to do. Thank you so much for the feedback. It was a pleasure having you join us!

This was such an amazing experience for us. Tyler knew so much about Anchorage and Alaska as a whole. We were able to see some amazing views and a Beluga whale. Best photography lesson since college.
Response from Host, Aug 2022
That is so exciting you got to see Beluga whale! Thanks for the wonderful feedback on Tyler - that's why we have lifelong Alaskans and longtime Alaskans as guides. I am so glad you found his photo instruction valuable. Thank you!

Ben took us to places that we didn't know anything about as tourists. He lent me a tripod and suggested different options for photographing the River and setting up the walk to a overlook for a beautiful sunset and stayed for the after glow. Then we went to a place for an iconic overview of the city. Next time we are in Anchorage we will try and book another session with Ben.

Colin was an accomplished photographer and tour guide. He went out of his way to look for the perfect shots. We hunted wildlife and the sunset, found a little bit of each.

Had the most memorable experience ever. Our driver's name was Ben and he was so helpful, informative and very polite. Took us to multiple places for some awesome views and got some beautiful pictures. Was very windy and cold in the mountains and he even had hot chocolate when we got back to the car.
Response from Host, May 2022

The tour was good, the driver was very informative of the surrounding area. She was very helpful in helping me take pictures. I learned a lot of future use. The weather did now cooperate, kind of rainy. Also hardly any wildlife. Did see a few whales.

Jody was our guide and had some great suggestions to really capture the scenery. Small group size enabled easy Q&A and ability to customize to each persons wants and skills. We had all different skill levels on our trip but I think everyone had a great time. Perfect customer focus and TLC.

Loved this tour, we just didn't get to see many animals. We did see an eagle and a female moose up close

My husband and I spent an informative and enjoyable evening with our guide, Harry Walker. The first conversation we had with Harry was what we wanted from our time with him. He went above and beyond to meet our needs. As an accomplished photographer, he was able to help us understand the workings of our cameras and gave us valuable advice on how to achieve the most from our picture taking. He took us to several locations in the area in order to practice our skills. After returning home, we were able to use what we learned during our Photo Safari with Henry to continue to hone our skills. Thank you!
