Private Driver
Our tour includes private transportation for the group, and I’ve arranged for us to have plenty of extra space for our luggage and camera gear. In addition to the planned stops, you’ll have lots of time to explore the small towns on your own self-directed photo walks each day.

I’ll be with you at every step to offer hands-on photography instruction, image review and critique, and creative field techniques so that your photos will be just as unforgettable as your memories. You'll learn photographic techniques with both DSLR/Mirrorless cameras, plus smartphone photography.
