Acadia National Park, Bar Harbor, ME
$4,995.00
Maine Coast and the Puffins Photo Workshops and Tours
This trip was Revised and expanded for 2025

Join us on a photo tour to the beautiful Maine coastline with professional photographer John Slonina.

Embark on an adventure photographing wildlife and stunning landscape by land and sea. We will be visiting some of our favorite places to photograph including Acadia National Park, Campobello Island (Canada), Schoodic Peninsula, and the eastern most point in the US.

Experience the magic of the rugged rocky coast and soaring granite cliffs where the mountains meet the sea. We also will be taking two boat rides to an island to photograph puffins, razorbills, and seals. We have other boat rides to see more lighthouses and seals at sunset.

June is a great time to photograph this awesome area including beautiful forests, mountain peaks, wildflowers, birds, lakes, streams, waterfalls, lighthouses, tide pools, and carriage roads etc. We also will be on the lookout for park wildlife including eagles, seals, deer, beavers, eiders, and foxes. There is a lot less traffic because it is before peak tourist season (July-September).

Be one of first people to see and photograph the rising sun in the country. The days are paced to maximize photo opportunities and the schedule will be flexible to maximize getting the best light.

From the blinds on the island we will photograph puffins, razorbills, and terns. Some of the birds are just a few feet away. On the boat ride back we will look for seals. The boat ride is included in the tour fee. On the ride back we will explore some hidden gems and quaint fishing harbors, lighthouses and seaside cliffs.

Who should attend:
Anyone with a interest in photography from a beginner to professional photographer who has a love of being outdoors and nature.

Group size:
Our groups are small in size. This group size allows for flexibility in our plans if interesting and unexpected photo opportunities present themselves. Also, it will allow us to work with each participate to provide complete, informative, helpful lessons.

Goals: The entire workshop is devoted to capturing the best nature images possible. John draws upon his decades of experience as a professional photographer to offer several methods to improve your nature photography. John will share numerous proven beginner thru advanced techniques.
