2024 Tigers Safari Photography Workshop

The Experience

Apex Predator
Practice and grow your wildlife photography skills as we explore two of India’s most famous tiger reserves in search of the true king of the jungle, India’s Bengal tiger, the largest of all the great cats.

Bandhavgarh & Kanha
We begin our adventure in India’s most renowned tiger reserve, Bandhavgarh National Park, nestled among the tropical forests, woodlands, rocky hills and flat grasslands of the Vindhya and Satpura ranges.

Kanha National Park, our second destination and the setting of Kipling’s Jungle Book, is a feast for the eyes with lush bamboo forests, open grassy meadows and most importantly, a large tiger population.

Other Wildlife
Capturing wall-worthy images of tigers in the wild is the focus of our trip but these tropical forests are home to an amazing variety and density of other species including leopards, sloth bears, gaurs (Indian bison), wild boars, Indian gazelle, common langurs, rhesus monkeys, as well as innumerable exotic bird species.

Photography Focused Adventure
Every aspect of this trip is designed for passionate photographers by passionate photographers:

• Our days start early and end late because that’s when the best light happens, and the animals are most active. Long before other tour groups begin their breakfast, we’re firing frames in the field. 

• Moving beyond snapshots requires patience and perseverance. We put in the time necessary to produce portfolio-worthy images.

• We choose our lodges for their proximity to the action rather than their amenities. However, we’re confident you will be pleasantly surprised by our accommodations. 

Sharpen Your Skills, Expend Your Vision
Ken Lee and Harsh Agarwal, your workshop leader/instructors, will always be close by to answer questions, provide tips on shooting techniques and offer insights about practical ways to expand your creative vision. Like most pursuits, good coaching and lots of practice are the keys to improving your wildlife photography game. You will get plenty of both on this photography-intensive adventure. Need a little help with camera settings and lens selection? Maybe some advice on composition and ways to move beyond the obvious animal portrait? Or perhaps a few tips on post-processing techniques or workflow might make the biggest difference?
