Itinerary
A JASPER JOURNEY comes with a personalized itinerary, based on location and subject preferences. With plenty of time in the field, we will watch the light transition from bright daylight through golden hour, sunset and blue hour, to finish-off capturing the night sky. Moving between locations will be based on the transition of light. Of course, we can flip the timeline and start at night.
Our choice of locations is dependent on multiple factors, including preferred subject matter, weather conditions and seasonal changes. Possible tour locations include:
Pyramid Bench, including Patricia Lake and Pyramid Island.
Across the Athabasca; including Lake Edith, Lake Annette and Old Fort Point.
Jasper Lake area; including Talbot Lake, Morro Bluff’s and Jasper Lake.
Maligne Valley; including Maligne Canyon, Medicine Lake and Maligne Lake.
Mount Edith Cavell; including Angel Glacier and Cavell Lake.
Along the Icefields Parkway (93N); including Athabasca Falls, Sunwapta Falls, the Beauty Flats, Tangle Falls and the Columbia Icefields.
We acknowledge that Jasper National Park is located in Treaty 6 and 8, and the traditional lands of the Anishinabe, Aseniwuche Winewak, Dene-zaa, Nêhiyawak, Secweìpemc, Stoney Nakoda, Mountain Métis and Métis.
It is a privilege to explore and photograph these traditional, ancestral and rightful lands.
Skill Level
Our photo tours are tailored to the skill level of the participants, from first-timers to seasoned professionals, and are suitable to anyone with a digital camera (DSLR or mirrorless) with manual control of shutter speed, aperture and ISO settings.
Physical Abilities
Generally speaking a photo tour will include roadside locations and short hikes (>3 KM) on well-defined trails with slight elevation changes and uneven terrain. Our photo tours are tailored to the abilities of the tour participants and may be customized upon request.
Weather
The weather patterns in the Canadian Rockies are fickle and hard to forecast accurately. Moody days might not make for the best views, but besides grand mountain vistas we can photograph canyons, lakes, waterfalls, glaciers, wildlife, trees, etc.
All photo tours will run in adverse weather, unless a Public Alert has been published by Environment Canada. In that case, a full refund, minus $50 admin fee, will be provided.
