Camargue Escape
Â
Join myself and Shelley Paulson in the breathtaking Camargue region of southern France in September 2026. We will host two sessions, Sept 6-12, 2026 and Sept 13-19, 2026. Registration opens SOON!
Imagine white horses galloping through the surf at sunrise, dogs posing in front of ancient Roman aqueducts, and beautifully styled equine sessions set against the rustic elegance of Provence. This experience will offer the same blend of artistry, education, and indulgence you've come to expect from our international equine photography escapes. You’ll refine your skills with hands-on shooting, expand your creativity, and soak in the magic of the French countryside.
As always, this will be more than just a workshop—it’s a full-on escape. We’ll stay together in a stunning country estate, enjoy delicious French cuisine, and explore the rich culture of the region. You’ll leave with a portfolio full of jaw-dropping images and a heart full of memories (and maybe a suitcase full of lavender and wine).
This is your gentle nudge to save the date, get excited, and join the waitlist so you don’t miss a moment of the magic. The Camargue Escape is coming—and it’s going to be magnifique.
Hair of the Dog Expedition - Galapagos 2027
Â
After an unforgettable kickoff in South Africa, the next chapter of the Hair of the Dog Expedition series is taking us somewhere truly wild—the Galápagos Islands, in early 2027!
Join Nicole Begley and award-winning wildlife photographer Alex Cearns for a once-in-a-lifetime voyage through one of the most extraordinary ecosystems on the planet. We'll be cruising aboard a small, 10-cabin ship designed for intimate exploration, where each day brings new photographic opportunities—from sea lions sunbathing on black sand beaches to blue-footed boobies mid-dance to iguanas lounging in the surf.
Want to extend the magic? We’re offering an optional add-on in the lush cloud forests of Mindo, Ecuador—an incredible haven for hummingbirds, waterfalls, and even more photo-worthy wildlife.
This trip will blend conservation, creativity, and connection in a way that only Hair of the Dog can deliver. We only have ONE SPACE left!
Adventure. Art. Impact. Let’s go make some magic.
