Nathan is a professional portrait photographer by trade, which is something you’d be hard pressed to find on any other Aurora tour in the Fairbanks area. He has 9 years experience as an engagement/wedding photographer. Other tours offer “free portraits” but not to the level of expertise that Nathan will provide, he uses controlled supplemental studio lighting to achieve unmatched quality and sharpness with techniques he developed over 7 years of painstaking practice, specifically in aurora portraiture. We also provide you with complementary gear to help keep you warm and safe: insulated over boots, hand/toe warmers, headlamps, ice crampons for traction, water bottles etc. But what everything boils down to is great photos. The photos speak for themselves and we want to get you some of your OWN!! Not only will you have a top tier photographer as a guide but Nathan also has more than 20 years of Alaska backcountry artic survival skills and offers expertise in all things Alaska adventure.

This isn't your grandmothers overcrowded Princess Cruse! ;) We’ll trek out on a photography adventure like no other and stay toasty warm as we enter a winter wonderland under the northern lights. The tour is a magical journey through the sparkling frozen tundra, chasing the colorful swirls of aurora borealis overhead. We’ll learn the basic science behind the phenomenon and how to photograph it using your own camera plus you’ll get landscapes and professional portraits, all included. The trek is a 5-6 hour tour. Depending on cloud coverage we drive 15-40 miles north of Fairbanks to one of many excellent viewing locations. At the viewing point we set up a cozy heated warming shelter for you. We also offer complimentary gourmet pizzas, hot out of our 930 degree stone fired pizza oven. Also, hot cocoa, coffee, Chai Tea and black tea. This adventure always delivers a memorable experience with lots of fun and extras to do while we wait for the aurora to appear. Get an authentic experience, come see how the locals adventure with your Alaskan guide, Nathan, 38 years old with 25 years of Alaskan outdoor experience!

The most amazing and unforgettable day we weren’t able to see the lights on our first night, but he brought us back the following day and we saw an amazing show for Pizza that tend to everything was amazing the first night when we didn’t see the lights, he took some amazing pictures of us and it was totally worth it, but do this again in a heartbeat

My mom and sister and I had the absolute best time on our aurora tour in March. Nathan our guide is a gem and took care of all of us with such care, professionalism and attention to detail. After picking us up from our hotel and driving to the aurora viewing location, he realized that the aurora was already out and active and jumped right into taking the most amazing pictures. He took his time with everyone in our group and helped us capture some amazing memories and moments. Nathan then set up the warming tent and prepared pizzas in his portable oven and hot drinks to help us get warmed back up. We finished the night with lighting Chinese lanterns and taking some amazing steel wool photography. 10/10 would recommend this tour to anyone wanting an unforgettable experience of a lifetime.

Nathan is the absolute best! He went above and beyond to make sure everyone got the most out of the tour. We were extremely fortunate with a night of breathtaking auroras, but even without such luck, he made the experience worthwhile with Chinese lanterns and steel wool photography. We enjoyed learning about the aurora phenomenon and a little about him personally. His energy and enthusiasm kept us charged the whole night through. The flight of pizzas was a hit (especially with my teenage son) and the drinks and heaters kept us toasty warm! Highly recommend!

Count your lucky stars this tour exists! This aurora tour was the ABSOLUTE highlight of our entire 2 week Alaska Trip! Every night we looked forward to being picked up and see the magic happen with him! Nathan is both an incredible Aurora guide & photographer all in one in addition to his friendly, engaging & professional demeanor. He makes the experience SO magical and takes STUNNING photos-with his professional wedding photography background every portrait comes out drop dead gorgeous! If it wasn’t enough that he shows you the Aurora, he also entertains with other fun activities if it doesn’t appear. No other tour will do that. If you want to be stuffed in a van with a bunch of people and drive to random fields “chasing the Aurora” and be out in the freezing cold and have dry snacks & mediocre portraits of yourself with the Aurora then go elsewhere. His prices are extremely reasonable and he sends photos by the time you wake up the next morning, no waiting. If you want to be in a warm tent eating PIZZA, so warm that you are peeling layers off yourself (We’re from Florida first time in Alaska & felt amazingly cozy) being entertained then book before it sells out! He even offers another date to come out again on a tour if the Aurora doesn’t show the night you booked. NO other tour is going to give you delicious hot fresh pizza made on the spot, variety hot drinks, make you laugh all night, entertain you giving you your own Chinese lanterns to fly and steel wool art if the Aurora doesn’t show! Also, other Aurora guides are just Aurora guides, this gentleman is also a photographer so he isn’t just showing you auroras, he’s getting the best photos of you and your family. Try finding another tour that’s better! My fiancé proposed to be during this tour and the photos are amazing. You will be so comfortable in his warm huge tent & awe inspired by his tours! We booked 4 nights in a row with complete confidence after reading so many happy reviews, and we were SO sad when our last night ended. The only regret we have is not booking more nights.
