National parks are some of North America’s most beautiful and iconic destinations, ideal for photographers.

Yellowstone’s geothermal features and abundant wildlife provide dynamic subjects, while the towering peaks of the Tetons inspire dramatic compositions. Mt. Rainier’s volcanic landscapes, wildflower meadows, and the rocky coastlines and rainforests of Olympic National Park evoke the raw beauty of the Pacific Northwest. Alaska’s national parks, like Katmai and Glacier Bay, provide some of the continent’s finest untamed wilderness and wildlife experiences. And, of course, the Desert Southwest is home to many parks, like Capitol Reef, Arches, Canyonlands, Grand Canyon, White Sands, Death Valley, and more, highlighting dramatic desert landscapes and red sandstone formations.

Our photography workshops are a great way to experience our national parks. We take care of all the details, like transportation, lodging, itinerary, and photo locations, so you can focus on the beauty around you. Our experienced guides will put you in the right place at the right time for epic photos at well-known and lesser-known locations while providing in-depth photography instruction to help you improve your skills.

Akari Photo Tours supports our public lands and always procures the necessary permits to operate workshops in our national parks and forests.
