Adventure Description

Join us for a beginner-friendly photography hike in beautiful Algonquin Park, led by a professional nature and landscape photographer. This immersive day trip is ideal for beginners eager to learn foundational photography skills and capture the beauty of Ontario’s iconic wilderness while also offering something for more advanced photographers looking to up their game.

Our teacher is a Fellow of the Royal Canadian Geographic Society and regularly contributes to Canadian Geographic Magazine. He's an avid outdoorsman who has worked in Algonquin Park for the last decade in various roles from guide to outfitter and knows the park better than just about anyone else.

Our instructor's work

He'll guide us through Algonquin’s varied landscapes, from towering forests to shimmering lakes, offering hands-on tips for framing, lighting, and capturing the essence of the park’s natural charm.

Expect a relaxed pace, with frequent stops to capture photos and appreciate Algonquin’s serene beauty. As we meander along scenic trails, he'll provide guidance on capturing unique angles and using natural light to highlight the vibrant colours and textures of the landscape. No prior photography experience is required, so whether you’re using a smartphone, mirrorless camera or DSLR, this hike is for everyone who wants to learn and create memorable shots.
