The Photo Tours listed below are a joint venture with Fresno based photographer Dan Sniffin. Dan is an award winning photographer who has had images used for the prestigious National Geographic Travel Calendar. He has exhibited his images at the Ansel Adams Gallery in Yosemite and has many corporate clients. You can learn more about Dan by visiting his web site at www.dansniffinphoto.com

Most photo trips are billed as photography workshops.  They are commonly filled with lots of technical information in a classroom setting.  Our photo “tours” will minimize classroom discussion, and emphasize being at the right place at the right time to come away with stunning images of each specially chosen location.  Of course, hands-on help and answers to questions will be provided at anytime during the tour. 

 As a follow-up to the tour, critiques of participants work (up to 10 images) will be provided via E-mail upon request.   

Skill Level: Intermediate to Advanced (Participants must have a good understanding of their cameras operation)

Film or Digital: Both are welcome

Participants: Typically Limited to 14

Photo tours tend to fill quickly, so please make your reservation today. 

Begining in 2009 Dan and I will give a 10% discount to returning participants! This applies to tours with Dan Sniffin only.
