As an Ansel Adams fan I had always wanted to see and photograph Yosemite, while my family just wanted to explore its natural beauty. Pat knew exactly what we anted and where to take us for a truly breathtaking experience. Pat is an expert professional, plus really enjoyable to be with - within a few minutes we all felt like he was an old family friend. His knowledge and experience of Yosemite and photography are an unbeatable combination. I am amazed at all that we accomplished in one afternoon. I've been a shutterbug for over thirty years and I doubt I have better images. Whether you are a beginner or a seasoned pro - please call him. You will not be disappointed.

We had the opportunity to spend an afternoon with Pat, the operator of Photo Safari Yosemite Day Tours on July 17. I must say that the tour is one of the highlights of our stay at the park and totally worth the money. I conversed several times with Pat via email/phone before I officially chose his service over others. I can tell from the very beginning that Pat was very attentive and was able to be flexible to meet our needs. This tour was suppose to be my husband's birthday present, and an opportunity to spend time alone with him during our extended family vacation. I specifically asked for Pat for sunset and postcard views. Pat delivered on both of our wishes. Pat picked us up at the hotel and took us to six different locations within 6 hours period. You can tell that he has extensive knowledge of the park and is passionate about photography. Pat spent a lot of time with me since I am newbie yet still find time to give my more experience husband pointers. Thanks to him, we were able to see Yosemite National Park from an insider and photographer point of view. I would highly recommend Pat's service to anyone who want to see it through a photographer's point of view.

Helping to celebrate a birthday just adds even more to the fulfillment of helping people take away great travel memories of their visit to Yosemite!

I went out with Pat for two half-day tours on July 8th and 9th. As a first-time visitor, I knew nothing about the park and Pat's knowledge and experience really gave me a great overview of the main attractions throughout Yosemite. With only a limited amount of time I was able to spend there, Pat helped me avoid searching around and hit and miss experiences that one would normally get by just stopping by the visitor center and taking a guess at what the best places to visit are. Not only did Pat take me around the park to the best sites but also at the right time of the day which is so crucial in photography. Pat spent much of his career as a professional photographer both in the navy and bay area. Not only is he knowledgeable about the park, but he is an excellent photographer and teacher. He gave me many tips about landscape and nature photography and now I have a better understanding of how not to compose a shot and not make a picture of the woods look like "a picture of the woods". I've been practicing the concepts he taught me throughout the rest of my vacation in CA. Finally, Pat is a lot of fun to be around and spend the day with. Definitely worth every penny. You will not be disappointed!
