New Zealand Photos
Journey with us through a land dominated by towering peaks, long sandy beaches, exotic natural bush, and sparkling lakes. A land not only famous for its part in the Lord of the Rings trilogy!
New Zealand’s South Island is a unique South Pacific paradise offering a diverse range of dramatic land and seascapes in one relatively small package.
This is a unique opportunity to experience New Zealand with two people who know the country like no other, and in a relaxed but well organized tour. Our groups are kept small, and we do not follow the usual tourist routes. Instead we explore the unspoilt and unexploited locations just the way serious photography is done, which is only possible with local knowledge and personal experience.
Rolf has over 20 years experience in landscape and nature photography in locations such as New Zealand, USA, Canada, Africa, South America, and Europe.
Rolf will be right there with you as you capture that west coast sunset, or mountain vista, and will provide you with valuable photography tips while assisting with composition and light management.
Rolf’s partner, Michelle is a kiwi (aka New Zealander) and has a 12 year background in New Zealand tourism. As well as organizing the tour, she will be on hand to provide interesting New Zealand facts for the journey, while ensuring that everything runs smoothly during your stay.
