Not only are Cathy and Gordon Certified International
Tour Managers, but the old saying, "Those who can't do, teach,"
does not apply to them.  We are full time nature photographers
whose work is widely published, including numerous covers of
magazines like Backpacker, Defenders, National Geographic Young
Explorer and National Wildlife.  Several of our images decorate the
tails of Frontier Airlines' jets, and our second book, Dynamic
Wildlife Photography, has been well received.

Not only have we had images win Highly Commended and Second
Place in the Wildlife Photographer
of the Year contest, but one of
our participants also did quite well in the
same contest with a
photo he took on one of our tours. We can’t promise
that everyone
who joins us will have that experience, but we can promise

that we will gladly share all of our photographic knowledge with you.  
If you're interested in trying to market your images, we'll  be happy to
advise you.  Gordon is also a Senior Contributing Columnist for
PhotoMigrations on-line  magazine.


We are more than just skilled photographers and instructors. We are
used to ensuring that our traveling companions have a great time,
regardless of where they are traveling and what they are doing.

The job is particularly fulfilling when it involves bringing guests face
to face with the great outdoors and the creatures that call it home.

Our instructional photo tours have introduced us to many wonderful
friends from all around the world, and we’re looking forward to
meeting
many more.  We’re also looking forward to showing you a
great time
while you compose calendar-quality images.
