Swan Hellenic is introducing its Antarctic Photography Program, an exclusive voyage-long experience for guests who want to develop their photography skills while exploring Antarctica.
With nine curated departures available, the program offers an opportunity to capture the continent’s landscapes and wildlife under the guidance of expert photographers.
The cruise line capped the program at 10 participants per voyage and costs US$1,000 (about AU$1,430) per guest. It includes professional guidance, dedicated photographic opportunities, daily image feedback and at-sea editing workshops.
“With our new Antarctic Photography Program, offered on nine cruises, we want to give passionate photographers the opportunity to go beyond simply taking pictures – to develop their skills, deepen their understanding of the environment, and create a more personal visual story of their journey,” Swan Hellenic chief commercial officer Mario Bounas said. “We are also pleased to announce that dedicated photography sailings will be launching in Asia-Pacific next summer season, extending this approach to a new region and offering guests fresh opportunities to develop their skills while discovering its extraordinary landscapes and marine paradises, as well as its wealth of diverse cultures.”
Canadian-British photographer Simon Ager will be the inaugural photography instructor. He has been published by National Geographic, contributes to SeaLegacy and is a CanGeo Fellow Photographer.
Lauren Buchholz will then take over. A landscape photographer, certified National Geographic Photo Instructor and polar guide, her work has appeared in Outdoor Photographer and Landscape Photography Magazine.
