Aurora Borealis Adventure Tour with Photo Lessons/Portraits

Overview

Nathan is a professional portrait photographer by trade, which is something you’d be hard pressed to find on any other Aurora tour in the Fairbanks area. He has 9 years experience as an engagement/wedding photographer. Other tours offer “free portraits” but not to the level of expertise that Nathan will provide, he uses controlled supplemental studio lighting to achieve unmatched quality and sharpness with techniques he developed over 7 years of painstaking practice, specifically in aurora portraiture. We also provide you with complementary gear to help keep you warm and safe: insulated over boots, hand/toe warmers, headlamps, ice crampons for traction, water bottles etc. But what everything boils down to is great photos. The photos speak for themselves and we want to get you some of your OWN!! Not only will you have a top tier photographer as a guide but Nathan also has more than 20 years of Alaska backcountry artic survival skills and offers expertise in all things Alaska adventure.

We had a fantastic experience viewing the Northern Lights! Nathan worked so hard the entire time to make sure we were comfortable. He set up a tent with heaters and seats to hang out in while we waited for the Aurora to show up, made us gourmet pizza in his portable pizza oven, offered a variety of hot drinks, provided hand and foot warmers, educated us on the science behind the Aurora and once the lights were active, made sure everyone got plenty of awesome portraits with the lights in the background. I feel like we got a great value! You can really tell how passionate he is about what he does! A couple of suggestions for Nathan: if you put a PA in the van, you could do your science talk and maybe some highlights about the area on the drive to and from, also maybe offer a plain pizza option or scoot the toppings over for those with less adventurous palates.
