YELLOWSTONE & THE GRAND TETONS

7 DAYS – JACKSON, WYOMING & GARDINER, MONTANA


 

 Tour Details

Adventure through two of America’s most iconic and wildlife rich national parks, alongside an Award-winning wildlife photographer as your guide and photographic instructor.  On this journey, designed for photographers of all levels, you will focus on producing unique wildlife imagery while sharpening your photographic mindset and skills.

The unprecedented small group size will allow everyone a window seat and plenty of room for personal space and photographic gear.  It will also allow the group the ability to modify the itinerary based on personal goals and unique wildlife phenomena that occur along the way.  Our focus will be to capture images of the elusive mammals (ie. wolves, grizzlies, moose) stopping along the way to photograph at some of the most beautiful landscapes in America.  This trip is scheduled around the peak of fall color, the rut (mammals battling for breeding rights) and during the school year to avoid crowds.

Aaron's Photo Tours

“I knew I wanted to hire someone to take me and a friend through Yellowstone but never imagined our trip would be so memorable. Aaron was an ideal guide, we saw everything including great gray owls, wolves, moose, beavers, grizzly bears and even a bald eagle. However, what mostly impressed me was Aaron’s desire to help us get the best shots and patience in helping us improve our photography skills. The trip could not have been better and I’m already planning my next trip with him.”
