Expert-Led Polar Photography Masterclass on the Ice

Join a professional polar photographer for an intimate, small-group masterclass conducted entirely on the ice and water of Schollaert Channel. Leave with technically refined, portfolio-worthy images of Antarctica's most dramatic ice and wildlife.

What to expect

Groups are capped at six photographers, ensuring the guide can review your settings, suggest compositions, and reposition participants without crowding. Sessions are timed around the golden-hour light that persists for hours in the Antarctic summer, turning bergs amber and rose. The guide coaches everything from histogram reading in bright snow to panning techniques for surfacing whales. An evening edit review session aboard the vessel is included.
