Overview

As a local guide and award-winning photographer, I use professional aurora-tracking tools and real-time weather data to give you the best chance of seeing the Northern Lights. If conditions aren’t favorable, I’ll let you know in advance and offer the option to cancel. I’ll help you capture stunning shots with your phone or camera, and share insights about Alaska’s landscapes, history, and wildlife during our aurora hunt.
