Trip Overview
Yosemite National Park is easily one of the most dramatic and spectacular alpine landscapes in the world. From the soaring heights of El Capitan and Half-Dome to the dramatic fields of mountain wildflowers and mesmerizing waterfalls – Yosemite is really a photographer’s paradise.
Sculpted by glaciers, Yosemite Valley is one of the most dramatically beautiful alpine landscapes in the world. It’s rounded granite domes tower thousands of feet over an idyllic valley floor with rushing streams pouring into the lovely Merced River. From atop Yosemite’s lofty heights, snow melts into raging waterfalls that cascade down its solid rock faces creating a photographic tapestry like none other in the world.
Our Spring in Yosemite Photography Tour/Workshop offers an impressive array of opportunities for both amateur and experienced photographers alike. We time this trip to coincide with peak waterfall season in the spring of the year. As the snow melts in the high country – Yosemite’s waterfalls rush to life. This is also a great time of year for Alpine Wildflowers and Rainbows shining off of the mists in the various falls.
Our experienced photography guides have been exploring the Sierra Nevada for the past decade and will offer their wealth of knowledge on this photographic endeavor into the old stomping grounds of Ansel Adams. Our small groups will allow you plenty of one on one time with your instructors so you can focus on improving your craft. Instructors will be on hand teaching a wealth of insider tips & tricks on Yosemite specific landscape photography.
The Spring in Yosemite Photography Tour aims to place you right in the action at Yosemite’s iconic spots. Rainbows, Waterfalls, Wildflowers and big, wide-open landscapes abound! We’ll be photographing Upper Yosemite Falls, Bridal Veil Falls, Nevada Falls, Vernal Falls and more as we comb Yosemite Valley for photo opportunites. We’ll also photograph the big granite domes such as El Capitan, Sentinel and Half-Dome as well as many locations on the valley floor. Every good photographer knows that it’s all about the light – and our photography guides will make sure you’re in the right place at the right time during the best lighting conditions.
You will be part of a small group led by professional photographers and staying at our wonderful lodge nestled in the pines right inside the park. After a long day of hiking and photographing in Yosemite we’ll kick back at the lodge with a great meal, photo reviews, instructor presentations and probably some good laughs as well!
Join us in Yosemite this year for during our Spring photography tour for an unforgettable experience. Yosemite is a photographic mecca unlike just about anywhere else!
