What makes the Photography week unique?
It’s an immersive hands-on experience guided by local experts in photography, mushing, and Arctic nature. Because you will meet our own working huskies, we know each dog’s unique personality, expression and behavior. Allowing us to set up authentic and perfect shots.
Beyond the pack, our deep local knowledge guides you to magical locations for landscape walks and optimal northern lights viewing. Plus, our professional photographer will teach you step-by-step how to master framing, work with winter light reflecting off the snow, and manage your camera gear in extreme Arctic cold.
