Aaron’s Photo Tours

I’ve known Aaron a long time and watched his skills develop as a photographer. I’ve had the privilege of joining Aaron on a few «hunts» where he decides on one animal to photograph. He does an enormous amount of research into the possible location of the animal and has more enthusiasm and passion for his work than most people I know. The excitement and adventure of searching for particular animals can be quite thrilling. He brought down cliff faces to find a particular variety of bird and in caves searching for bats. Aaron’s passion is unmatched. I remember driving with him to the destination where we were to begin our search and he suddenly says «did you see that!!» pulls off the freeway, grabs his camera gear and starts running down the side of the freeway. He definitely has the eye — even at 70mph. He didn’t get the shot of the bird of prey that time but I realized at that moment where his head is — he’s always looking for that special shot. He sort of reminds me of a wildlife storm chaser with the patience of a monk.
While the adventure is great, the best part is result of his passion, skill and unending enthusiasm for his work. His photos are spectacular. A friend recently went on one of Aaron’s Photo Tours and shared with me some amazing photos of a white spotted owl. My friend is an amateur photographer and he was blown away at the success in finding the animals. Aaron’s photos are great — if you enjoy nature photography I suggest checking out is book or online portfolio — the really cool thing is that my friend got shots of the owl that he had never been successful at getting in the past. I’m saving up for a tour — my interest is in bigger game and I look forward to getting on one Aaron’s Tours somewhere in «Grizzly Alley».
My suggestions to anyone who is interested in going on one of Aaron’s Tours is to schedule a call with him. Just let him know your interests. He truly loves what he does and loves sharing with others.

My second photo tour with Aaron provided me with the opportunity to photograph owls in eastern Washington that I could not have accomplished on my own. Aaron’s photographic tips and wildlife knowledge helped me bring back some great shots of barn owls, burrowing owls, avocets, and stilts. We really had fun watching the young burrowing owls practicing flight in the wind. Aaron knows where to find the birds. Both tours were very productive for me and I highly recommended him. ⁶⁄₂₀₁₂
My first tour was photographing snowy owls, sandhill cranes, a variety of ducks (the colorful wood ducks were a highlight) and a barred owl. I was delighted with my photographs.
