What To Expect

We'll spend a couple of hours exploring old-growth forests, natural pools and waterfalls in the North Shore. We'll grab lunch at Granville Island's famous market and photograph some hidden locations. After lunch we continue to Stanley Park, where you will see Totem Poles and some amazing viewpoints. We'll head to English Bay famous for its spectacular sunsets. We'll finally walk through the cobble-stoned streets of Gastown at night with its famous Steam clock.

Your photographer guide will teach you the basics of photography while taking you to the best spots from which to photograph these locations.
