Half day tour from Queenstown to Glenorchy.
This photographic tour is an enjoyable outdoor adventure combined with insightful guidance on maximising the use of your camera. You will learn life long skills on the fine art of landscape photography from an award-winning photographer, while discovering some unforgettable locations.
You will learn how to take beautiful landscape images using your own equipment. I also have a few special locations up my sleeve that have magical views.
Glenorchy is surrounded by magical snow-capped mountains, stunning lakes and rivers, ancient beech forests. And at the edge of Mount Aspiring and Fiordland national parks, the frontier town of Glenorchy has provided the backdrop for many films, including The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings.
Also the drive from Queenstown to Glenorchy is one of the world’s greatest drives, following along the Wakatipu Lake. You will get to enjoy the whole journey as your guide looks after the driving.

I did a morning tour with Glen around the Queenstown area, and it was undoubtedly one of the highlights of my trip to New Zealand. Glen's local knowledge was invaluable in showing us around several amazing locations in the Queenstown and Wanaka area. He was very flexible with timings and picking us up from our accommodation, and his enthusiasm for the day was infectious and made the day really fun.
Glen's knowledge of photography is absolutely fantastic and I found immediately improvements to my photos while on the tour. His knowledge and natural teaching ability are of benefit to novices and seasoned photographers alike. Thanks for the tour!

This tour was the highlight of our recent trip to Queenstown! I purchased the tour for my partner as a birthday present. And his words were “best present ever.” We loved Glen’s enthusiasm and passion for the scenery NZ has to offer as well as landscape photography. Glen taught us a number of new techniques and looked after us amazingly - he kept us warm and comfortable (it was freezing!). We are really pleased with the photos we came away with and can’t wait to come back to take more! Thanks Glen 🙏🤩

This is my third photo tour with Glen. He is both technically proficient with cameras (regardless of manufacturer) and also has eye for beauty, design and frame. Although he lives in Queenstown, every day is like new day for him and gets overwhelmed with the sheer rugged beauty of the place. Glen is flexible and willing to work around your schedule and make additional stop or skip areas that you are not interested in. From photography perspective I learn something new from him with every step I take with him in the wilderness.

Doing a photo tour with Glen was the highlight of my trip to NZ. Glen is such a fantastic teacher—he has the rare combination of talent, patience, a terrific sense of humor, and a knack for explaining complex techniques clearly. I learned so many practical skills and came away feeling more inspired about photography than I've felt in a long time. Could not recommend more.

Glen made sure that we were at some spectacular locations when the light was at its best. Fresh snow added to the atmosphere and the mountains looked amazing. I picked up some really useful photography tips from Glen and really enjoyed his company. As well as the Glenorchy tour I also did the Skippers Canyon tour which was incredible too.

Fantastic! Went on a sunrise tour to Glenorchy and beyond with Glen and had a great time. My camera was playing up so Glen immediately offered me his back up camera and tripod. Glen knew the area well and was flexible with plans. I was the only one booked that day so it felt like a real treat to have one on one tuition and guide around the area. The scenery was spectacular and varied. Glen helped me with settings on the camera as I was not very experienced at all. By the end I had learnt a lot. It was an incredible feeling to capture an amazing photo. Glen was easy going, chatty and knowledgeable. Would happily go on a tour with Glen again. Highly recommend!

Booked a half day Glenorchy trip with Glen, had so much fun I ended up doing another two (Skippers and Nevis Range). Glen was a great guide, friendly and helpful. Set us up for the best photo opps, helped with settings, and was conscious of the changing light and conditions, but was also guided by the needs of the other person and me so didn't rush us until he had to, to ensure we got to the next spot at the right time! Highly recommend a tour with Glen if you are keen on capturing the beauty of NZ on a relaxed and fun trip. Oh, he's a good, safe driver too!
