I tell people all the time that Antarctica is a once in a lifetime destination. It’s that one place everyone should strive to visit. But, it’s also a place that I’ve been lucky enough to visit 3 separate times. Each time, it gets better. And each time, the photography opportunities feel more powerful. A photography expedition to Antarctica is just one of those really special things only so few of us get the chance to do.
That being said, if you’re going to travel all the way to Antarctica, you might as well add in South Georgia and The Falkland Islands, right?
In February 2025, I’m going to be leading a photography expedition to the Antarctic Peninsula, South Georgia, and The Falkland Islands with Polar Latitudes.

The Antarctica Expedition Ship
I’m really excited that this photo trip to Antarctica and South Georgia will be on the Seaventure. I’ve been on this ship before, and it’s absolutely awesome. The rooms are large, and there’s lots of great places to hang out, socialize. It’s also one of the most stable ships which will make crossing the drake passage much easier.
You can learn more about the ship here.
The Antarctica Photographers
This trip will be lead by myself. Essentially, we’ll be a group within the group onboard. We’ll be 10 photographs and have our own zodiac. So, when we’re out on excursions, I’ll be in the zodiac with you, and out on land with you during landings.
Moreover, we’ll also have on of the Polar Latitudes team members who is a photographer leading us around. So, there will be two photograph instructors in the zodiac.
The Itinerary?
Essentially, this trip is going to sort of look like a traditional Antarctica tour focused on photography. We’re going to be taking everything to the next level.
