Introducing a breathtaking 4-Day 3-Night Fall Color Photography Tour around the enchanting San Juans of Colorado! Are you a nature lover, photography enthusiast, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of autumn’s vibrant hues? If so, this is the ultimate experience that will leave you awe-inspired and with memories to last a lifetime.

As the leaves begin to change, the San Juan Mountains transform into a kaleidoscope of rich, warm colors that beckon photographers to come and explore. My expertly curated Fall Color Photo Tour is designed to immerse you in the heart of this natural spectacle, taking you on a journey through picturesque landscapes, hidden gems, and stunning vistas.

Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned photographer, I will be on hand to offer personalized photography tips and techniques. From mastering composition to capturing the perfect light, you’ll elevate your photography skills to new heights.

My tour is meticulously planned to coincide with the peak of fall colors. You’ll visit iconic spots like Dallas Divide, Last Dollar Road, Silverton and Telluride, where you can witness the mountains dressed in golden aspens.  We will also take the iconic Durango Train to Silverton, as well as ride the Gondola in Telluride.

To ensure an intimate and personalized journey, I keep the tour groups small. This enables you to connect with fellow participants and receive one-on-one attention from me.

Your comfort is also my priority. I’ve taken care of the accommodation details, so you can focus solely on your passion for photography and the awe-inspiring beauty of nature.

My tour isn’t just about capturing stunning images; it’s about connecting with the heart of the San Juan Mountains. You’ll have the opportunity to interact with locals, learn about the area’s history, and gain insights into the region’s unique culture.

The San Juans are not only home to breathtaking fall colors but also a diverse range of wildlife. Be prepared to capture shots of deer, elk, and other majestic creatures as they traverse the landscape.

Join us on this unforgettable Fall Color Photo Tour, where you’ll not only capture mesmerizing images but also forge lasting memories and friendships. Whether you’re an avid photographer, nature enthusiast, or simply seeking an escape into the beauty of autumn, this tour is the perfect opportunity to embrace the magic of the San Juans in their most magnificent season.

This all-immersive workshop also includes 6 hours of classroom setting editing courses so you can fine tune your style and create a cohesive gallery of your trip.
