Choose between the wilderness of Alaska at our lodge in Larsen Bay, or our adventure camp along the banks of the Ayakulik Valley River.
Booking 2024 Season 10th to 15th of July
Kodiak Island is a top destination for fishing, Brown Bear viewing and viewing marine life such as *Orcas, *Sea Otters and *Sea Lions. Our workshops really are in the Alaskan wilderness.
Which is why Kodiak is also our favorite destination to teach you how to photograph not only wildlife but also how to document your travels and tell a story. So many amazing animals to photograph in Alaska, you can be sure it has everything you need to keep you busy.
With accommodation and food included, you can relax and enjoy the environment around our lodge in Larsen Bay or at our camp (“glamping”) on banks of the Ayakulik Valley River.
Sign up to our newsletter and get updates on availability of new Alaska photography workshops. Plus photography tips and tricks from Dan & Jessica.
*Not all workshops have Marine Life water based photography options or flyouts
Many of the locations we visit have been featured on National Geographic such as Alaska Bear Gauntlet (Kodiak King) S1E1 and many other TV shows and documentaries.
Check out our photography workshop locations on Kodiak Island and other locations throughout Alaska. Plus wildlife tours from local operators.

Grizzly bears have a habit of appearing when least expected. Always check your environment often when in the wilderness, check the rivers edge and the river banks.

We don`t "just" see bears, we often get other visitors. This very wet and rained on fox joined our group of 5 to see what we were doing. Came into our group for a short while before off to find some food.
