Exploring Newfoundland

Wildlife, Landscapes, Lighthouses and More

We are delighted to present this exceptional, all-inclusive photography workshop set in the captivating expanse of Newfoundland, Canada. This workshop promises an immersive experience, allowing you to skillfully capture the intricate beauty of Puffins, Gannets, and other remarkable wildlife, all while surrounded by the awe-inspiring landscapes that define this coastal wonderland. 

Immerse yourself in the photography of this magical wonderland as we explore not only the vibrant wildlife but also the rugged coastal panoramas, shipwrecks that stand as poignant echoes of history, and the ethereal transitions of sunrises and sunsets over the Atlantic horizon.

On the rugged cliffs of Newfoundland, the air is filled with an enchanting display of puffin courtship. Male puffins, with their vibrant beaks and distinctive markings, engage in an elegant ballet of gestures – offering carefully selected gifts to their potential mates. Amidst the backdrop of crashing waves and dramatic landscapes, these charming seabirds create a symphony of colors and movements, a visual ode to the intricacies of nature's courtship dance.

We will be shooting dramatic sunrises and sunsets along with stunning landscapes of the majestic Newfoundland coastline
