An Amazing Place for Photography

Majestic Mt. Rainier rises 14,410' above beautiful subalpine meadows. Covered in a colorful display of summer wildflowers. These stunning meadows are but a small part of this diverse landscape. Mt Rainier is the tallest glaciated peak in the lower 48 states. Your journey goes well beyond the roadways that traverse the park. You will explore the meadows at Paradise where the hillsides are covered in wildflowers backdropped by Mt Rainier. You will capture the first rays of light at Reflection Lakes as morning mist rises above the reflections. You'll discover creative ways to capture the beautiful streams and waterfalls. The Sunrise region of Mt Rainier is highest point in the park that can be reached via roadway. If you have the determination to explore a bit off the beaten path, you can explore quiet meadows above the Sunrise visitor center.  

Your Mt Rainier Photography Workshop begins on Saturday afternoon after pickup at the Seatac International Airport. Each day, carefully selected locations will be determined depending on the weather forecast. We rise early for sunrise or simply to catch the warm morning spreading its rays across the landscape. Hiking is very much a part of outdoor and nature photography, your Mt Rainier hikes are fairly easy as long as you take your time and photograph along the way. I invite you to join me on this fun and rewarding photo journey.

Itinerary. Our daily schedule will vary depending on location and weather. Light is the most important ingredient to a rewarding photo shoot. You can expect early mornings and photograph throughout the good morning light. If the weather conditions are favorable for photography throughout the day you can bet we'll take advantage of it. I have designed the daily schedule to allow some down time during the bad light during mid day. Late afternoon and into early evening we'll be back out in the field for more hands on photography instruction and shooting opportunities.
