Join us on our Snowy owl photography workshop in Canada in January 🇨🇦

We focus on photographing the elusive Snowy owl in a cold winter and snowy landscape and target for the best light conditions during five full days 📸

We often get lucky with many other species of owls like Hawk owl, Barred owl, Eastern screech owl, Northern saw-whet owl,…On top of that we visit bird feeders and find lots of forest birds, and spend the noon hours there when the owls are roosting.

Nothing much more exciting to observe and photograph than a Snowy owl looking in your lens!Yves helps you capturing high speed action shots and how to prepare for a bitter cold but highly rewarding adventure!

This is a guaranteed departure with two weeks available in January, check out our website for details ❄️

Another Bearded seal resting on an ice floe. As a part of our expeditions you will be guided by the Vega team which has many years of experience from photography in the Arctic. Angles, light and back ground is second nature to us.

A bearded seal gets its rusty color from exactly that, rust! As it digs in the bottom sediments for shellfish the iron rich sediments get stuck in its fur and oxidizes. On an overcast day the light is soft and it’s up to the guides to approach slowly to get you close enough for a great picture.

Polar bear cubs are born around December and emerge from their den end of March-April. They grow fast during the next weeks and have to learn how to hunt, following their mother with every footstep.
If you want to see the smallest cubs, you need to explore early in the season. And have some luck of course! Here we just witnessed the mother bear catching a Ringed seal pup! The Polar bears cubs were so excited!

SVALBARD WINTER PHOTOGRAPHY ❄️🌅
- Small groups, great adventures! -

Join us on a spectacular expedition, guided by renowned photographers! With a small group of 12, we spot wildlife on the pack ice, cruise in front of glaciers, and explore the fjords and icebergs in the Arctic wilderness. Welcome aboard!

13/12/2023

Small groups, great adventures! With a very small group of just 12 photographers, exploring the Arctic becomes very intimate. With our two large scale rubber boats or zodiacs, we split up in two little groups so we get all the space to move around and handle those long lenses. With fewer people, the little boat moves around less, it gets more quiet and experiences just get so much better.

Up for a spot yourself? Have a look at our website for our offers for our next year’s season in Svalbard!

If you are in for a unique high Arctic cold adventure and want to photograph in winter conditions, we have some spots left on our photo-expedition from 15-23 April 2024!

Imagine you get a wake up call in your cabin, we just anchored our expedition ship for the morning and we spotted a Polar bear hanging around on the fast ice! Get your camera and dress warm and join us out on deck!
This is a very possible scenario when you join us on a photo expedition in Svalbard!

If you are in for this high Arctic cold adventure and want to photograph in winter conditions, we have some spots left on our photo-expedition from 15-23 April 2024!
