Washington Photo Safari Group Program

As seen on the NBC “Today” Show, Washington Photo Safari™ takes participants around the monuments of the nation’s capital, using these landmarks as “models” to teach basic tips in travel photography: composition, lighting, exposure, outdoor portraits, candids, and even indoor photography without flash. A professional photographer accompanies the participants and helps them find the best angles for every shot. Participants bring their own cameras and film.  Any camera is acceptable, from disposable to digital. Founded in 1999, Washington Photo Safari™ has trained over 20,000 people in the techniques of travel photography.

A group photo Safari makes a great office outing and team-building program. Or, how about a photo Safari in the nation’s capital for your incoming convention and association meetings? All this is possible through our Washington Photo Safari Group Program, where we tailor a special photo excursion to your group’s needs and interests, on a date convenient to your organization. We can do groups from 6 to 75 people, with attractive discounts that get even better as the group gets larger. To give the most attention to every participant, we provide one professional photographer-instructor for every 20 persons attending.Min. group size is 6.
