After an incredible photography workshop in the Galápagos Islands this year, we are excited to announce the trip for 2025! We will be cruising around the islands for eight days with a small group on a private yacht - hands down the best way to experience the islands. Emily Carter and I have partnered again with Holbrook Travel to make this trip of a lifetime possible for photographers all levels. Space is limited to 14 photographers.
Galápagos Islands Photography Workshop - January 2024
In early January I co-led my first international photography workshop in the Galápagos Islands with Emily Carter and 14 photographers from the Chesapeake region. The trip was organized by Holbrook Travel - a family owned and operated travel agency that has been working working in Latin America since the 1970’s. Our group cruised around the western route of the Galápagos for eight days under the expert guidance of national park guide Edgar Vargas. We had incredible encounters with a diverse array of wildlife on land and in the water. Enjoy the Photographs of the group and the crew from the Tip Top II.
Emily and I are in the process of scheduling the 2025 trip to the Galápagos Islands with Holbrook Travel - stay tuned to my blog and social media for more information!

We cruised the islands onboard the catamaran Top Tip II. The 104 foot long catamaran with a 40 foot beam provided our group of 16 plenty of space to spread out. The boat has 10 cabins, two dining areas, a bar and a upper sun deck. The crew and national park guide, some of them pictured below, did an incredible job making the experience memorable and the accommodations more than comfortable.

With the Top Top II as our mothership, the captain and crew used two zodiacs for our land and water based excursions on the different islands in the Galápagos.

Workshop participant Bill Mish from Annapolis, Maryland set the bar for underwater photography on the trip. Bill has been free diving and shooting underwater for more than three decades. The group had incredible opportunities for underwater photography during more than ten snorkeling excursions.
