Hello, Fellow Adventurers!
As the day dawns, the desert wind stirs, whispering ancient Egyptian secrets. Slowly, twilight’s soft glow reveals the majestic presence of the Great Pyramids of Giza. With exclusive special permits, we’ll have private access to photograph these wonders before the gates open to tourists, ensuring we capture the pyramids in their absolute best light—early morning and evening—for three unforgettable days.
And the adventure doesn't stop there.
We will journey to Luxor to explore the famed temples of Luxor, Karnak, and Hatshepsut before boarding a traditional Dahabiya (A traditional type of Egyptian ship) that we will charter to go down the Nile for a breathtaking 2-day Nile cruise. Along the way, we’ll photograph stunning sites like the Temples of Kom Ombo and Edfu under expert guidance, making every moment a chance to create lifechanging portfolio-worthy shots.
And it’s not just about capturing these images—it’s about learning how to sell them!
You’ll work with four world-class photographers and marketers, mastering both the craft of photography and the business behind it. From in-field coaching to daily editing and marketing sessions, you’ll learn how to turn your art into a profitable endeavor.
