2. Expertise in Extreme Environments
Joshua Holko is an internationally acclaimed specialist in wildlife and landscape photography, focusing on some of the most extreme environments on Earth—from the Arctic to Antarctica. With extensive experience in sub-zero conditions, he expertly guides photographers through the challenges of shooting in frigid temperatures, high winds, and ever-changing light, ensuring they are fully prepared to capture breathtaking images in any weather. Your safety is our top priority, and we provide the knowledge and support needed to navigate these remote landscapes, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in both the experience and your photography.
3. Small Group Experience
Unlike most tours where photographers compete for the best vantage points—often against the tour leader—these workshops are intentionally kept small. This ensures a highly personalised experience with one-on-one instruction, real-time feedback, and hands-on guidance in composition, exposure, and technique. Here, the focus is on your photography, with the tour leader setting aside his own camera to help you capture the best possible images.
Many tours simply drop participants at a location and leave them to figure things out while the leader focuses on their own work. Joshua takes a different approach. He is actively engaged in refining each participant’s skills, providing expert guidance on camera settings, autofocus techniques, shooting strategies, and even post-processing. The goal is not just to leave with incredible images but to return home with new knowledge and confidence to elevate your photography.
4. Ethical and Respectful Wildlife Photography
Joshua is deeply committed to ethical wildlife photography, ensuring that all images are captured without disturbing the animals or their natural behaviours. In an era where some tour leaders may resort to unethical practices, Joshua's approach prioritizes conservation, allowing participants to witness and photograph authentic, undisturbed wildlife moments.
5. Proven Track Record and Industry Recognition
Joshua Holko is an internationally recognized, award-winning wildlife and Nature photographer whose work has been featured in leading publications around the world. His extensive experience over decades leading workshops in remote locations means participants are learning from one of the best in the field—someone who understands the nuances of the environment, the behavior of the subjects, and the technical aspects of capturing breathtaking and powerful photographs. His clients and their incredible imagery are living, walking examples of his commitment to his participants.
