Travel with us in 2026
/
Hello from New Zealand, where I’ve just kicked off the first of two photo tours here — we’ll be exploring the magical landscapes of the South Island over the next couple of weeks. While many of our 2026 photo tours have already launched—and sold out within hours—there are still a few that we are putting the final touches on that will open soon.
If you’d like early access before they go public, drop your name below to get notified first and give yourself the best chance of grabbing a spot before they fill up.
Coming soon:
Ghost Town Bodie Photo Tour – June 2026
Exclusive after-hours access and guided astrophotography inside the historic Bodie ghost town in California.
Sedona Bootcamps – Late October 2026
Beginner Bootcamp – A hands-on learning experience that helps photographers master their camera, understand light, and build confidence through daily photo challenges. Perfect for anyone ready to move beyond “auto” and start creating intentionally.
Advanced Bootcamp – For photographers ready to push creative limits. Each day’s challenge refines your vision, strengthens technical control, and hones your storytelling—no post-processing, just pure in-camera mastery.
Death Valley Photo Tour – December 2026
Three days of shooting in one of the most photogenic and diverse landscapes in the Southwest—truly one of my favorite places to explore with a camera.
And looking further ahead, you’ll find a few 2027 trips already listed, along with some exciting early-stage plans for Laos and a return to New Zealand in development.
Backing up your photos and documents isn’t optional — it’s essential. I use Backblaze to automatically and securely back up everything on my computer, so I never have to worry about losing a lifetime of images or important files.
It’s a vital part of my workflow, affordable, automatic, and reliable. Don’t wait for a data-loss catastrophe to make you wish you’d started sooner.
B&H Photo has launched their Holiday Deals, and there are some fantastic savings this year. Sony has rolled out several standout offers, along with discounts from other top manufacturers.
If you’ve been eyeing new gear, now’s the time to take a look. Your use of my links helps support my work—and even helps fund my son’s college education.
Can’t wait to share what’s next,
Toby
