DAILY SCHEDULE

We typically rise early to take advantage of the morning light.  Other than meal breaks, we are often out in the field photographing until dark. Our tours are not weather-dependent. We are out photographing rain or shine. It is important to prepare both yourself and your camera equipment for the vagaries of Mother Nature. The instructional presentations are timed so as not to interfere with the best photographic opportunities. Time is allotted each day for Question and Answer sessions, both in the field and in the classroom. Come prepared to learn, to improve your photographic skills, to expand your creativity, and to have fun along the way.

PAYMENT AND TOUR POLICIES

Reservations: To reserve your space in any tour a deposit is required. The timing of balances due will vary by tour. I prefer that all payments be made by credit card. I accept both MasterCard and VISA.

Cancellations: I hope that no emergency will require you to change your plans.  In the unlikely event that you must cancel your reservation, I will do my best to work with you.  For most tours you will receive a full refund of payments made if you cancel 120 days or more prior to your trip, AND if your space can be filled.  I will not be able to provide refunds for cancellations received after that date.  In some cases, I may be able to apply your deposit to a future tour or workshop within one calendar year of your cancellation, on a space available basis.

Limitation of Liability: All participants are required to sign and return the limitation of liability form with your reservation to secure a spot in any Awake The Light tour or workshop.

Smoking Policy: Due to health and comfort considerations for all of our participants, our tours are non-smoking.

TRIP INSURANCE

I highly recommend that you obtain Trip Insurance. It is a low-cost way to protect your investment in case unexpected events prevent your attendance, and I am unable to refund your payments. Trip Insurance is available from a variety of providers. Please contact your travel agent or insurance agent for a list of companies.
