Moose Photography Tours & Workshops

Moose in the mist
Join wildlife photographer Michael Bertelsen as he ventures into the heart of Algonquin Park's world renowned moose country. Experience moose photography at its best aboard a comfortable 19' very stable boat with a flat floor and a shallow draft designed specifically for photography. There is a removable top to protect you from the rain. Once at our destination, the electric motor will allow us to slip in quietly.
Capturing Super Sharp Images is an easy task with your monopod or tripod set up in the very stable wide bottomed boat. Quick adjustments to camera direction is made using comfortable swivel seats mounted down the centerline of the boat to prevent movement.
Quality Not Quantity
Workshops are limited to a maximum of 4 people, except the Landscape/Moose & Moose in Rut. They have a maximum of 6 photographers. This ensures that everyone's photographic needs will be addressed, giving the highest quality experience possible.
Itinerary
Meeting place to be determined. On location for the early morning light. At noon a picnic style lunch is served and time for a rest. Then back out for the afternoon
Testimonials
Our trip to Algonquin Park was all about moose photography and it was truly awesome! The combination of Michael Bertelsen and Algonquin Park is unbeatable... Michael's expertise and non-invasive approach to wildlife gets you in close to the moose without impacting their normal behavior, perfect for getting those special images. The perspective from the boat is unique and provides a background of the beautiful shoreline and trees as the moose indulge endlessly on lily pads. We are already planning our next trip. Thanks Michael for a great adventure, Larry G. Kinney
Michael, Overdue in thanking you for your wonderful Loon\Moose photo workshop last month. As you know I do a fair bit of wildlife & landscape photography around North America, including attending a number of well known workshops. My experience with you in Algonquin was world class. Not only because of the scenery & wildlife but largely because of your knowledge & enthusiasm. I am already making plans for another trip with you. Thanks, Jack Pasht
