What is the difference between photo expeditions and other expeditions?
Designed to accommodate all levels of photographers from beginners to pros, our photo expeditions offer 360° photo ops, the instruction of a robust photo team giving you the tips you need when you need them, and all the time you need to get your shots right. They feature outings timed to take advantage of the best light—aboard Zodiacs for up-close encounters with marine mammals or on trail hikes. Plus, there are unique “share and learn” opportunities like onboard photo clinics, one-to-one critiques, and inclusive “laptop gallery” events to see each other’s best images. You’ll have the opportunity to shoot with and learn from the best in the world—a National Geographic photographer joins every photo expedition, in addition to two Lindblad Expeditions-National Geographic certified photo instructors. They're engaging presenters and interesting travel companions, too—with good stories to share about their assignments, from the podium and over drinks or dinner. Beginning in 2022, our photo expeditions in Alaska will have the opportunity to join an optional pre-voyage photo extension in Sitka.
