Testimonial
“Highlight of the trip: That’s hard – I loved it all. (From New Zealand Tour) The Southern Alps & Milford Sound are fabulous, but everything was great!!! The guide was incredible. It was especially great that he was a photographer also. He took wonderful care of us, knew everything and was a lot of fun."
- K Perry
“There were many wonderful photo opportunities, but (Ireland tour) Olcan’s personality, including his music added a particularly unique and memorable dimension. Tom’s lectures and suggestions were considerably better than I experienced on two workshops with others. Pat was also very helpful and friendly."
- S. Handley
“An excellent photographic destination made more enjoyable by the expert and caring leadership of Tom and Pat Cory."

A note from Tom ~
We welcome enthusiastic photographers of all skill levels on our tours. While our emphasis is on the creative aspects of photography, we are happy to help you with any technical-artistic concerns that you may have. We typically offer six to eight short instructional programs as well as portfolio reviews on request. What we really enjoy is helping you one-on-one in the field, giving you as much, or as little, instruction as you need. We believe that our workshops should be enjoyable educational experiences that not only emphasize photography, but also allow the time and opportunity to learn about the history, art, and culture of each location. We enjoy having participants who work in mediums besides photography, non-participating partners, and others who can enjoy spending extended periods of time in a single location. We are delighted when these ‘non-photographers’ who intended to take a few point and shoot pictures discover the wonderful world of photography while they are on one of our journeys. While we have specific itineraries, we allow time for unscheduled stops for opportunities we find along the way.
We have been leading workshops and fieldtrips for over fifteen years. Pat and I have published several books on photography including our ever-popular instructional book, Notes from the Field, now in its sixth printing. Pat has recently produced a nature video DVD with hammer dulcimer musician Dan Landrum entitled Visions of Nature. We welcome photographers using both film and digital cameras, as well as video.
