AE Expeditions (part of Aurora Expeditions), a pioneer in responsible and immersive small ship exploration, has announced a 12-day themed photography expedition to Antarctica in February 2026.
Guided by some of the world’s leading wildlife and landscape photographers, the 12-day Antarctic Explorer: Through the Lens will give avid photographers the opportunity to learn from accomplished photography guides, including lead photographer Nigel Danson, Mads Peter Iverson, Rachel Bigsby, Scott Portelli, James Popsys, and many more.
With the Antarctic summer months offering between 18-24 hours of daylight, each day’s activities will be curated to provide optimum opportunities for photographers to capture one of the world’s most pristine destinations, complemented by captivating lectures, insightful presentations and invaluable tips to help passengers capture unforgettable moments in Antarctica like a professional.
Through personalised guidance both onboard and during onshore adventures, participants will gain insights into camera setup, composition enhancement, and craft refinement, regardless of their camera gear or smartphone.
“Antarctica feels unlike anywhere else on Earth. I’ve wanted to visit since I watched David Attenborough presenting a BBC show about leopard seals when I was just eight years old, and for me, it represents the pinnacle of photographic and nature adventures,” said lead photographer Nigel Danson, a renowned YouTube creator and landscape photographer.
“This trip will be my third visit, and I’m every bit as excited as my first. It is a lifetime trip, and I look forward to welcoming you onboard and shooting together.”
“AE Expeditions is all about immersive, educational and adventurous small ship experiences in some of the world’s most remote destinations. We’re thrilled to be offering our passengers the opportunity to learn from this group of exceptionally talented photographers,” added CMO Greg Cormier.
Berths are already selling fast, so those interested are encouraged to secure their spot soon.
