SMALL GROUP TOURS AND WORKSHOPS - We lead many small group tours and workshops throughout the US and the world.  On most of our tours we try to include excellent photo opportunities of both birds and mammals.  A fair number of the trips we put together are unique in that no other photographers are offering the itineraries that we do.  On most of the group trips professional level photo instruction is included.  To see our list of offerings click on the links in the menu above or on the right.

PRIVATE TOURS AND WORKSHOPS - We can plan and lead great photography tours almost anywhere in North America, Latin America, South Africa, Thailand and other locations.  We partner with the best local photography guides all of whom Nate Chappell has met and worked with in the past.  We lead private workshops here in the US to help you improve whatever aspect of bird and widlife photography you want to work on.
