Orca Photo Expedition
If you are looking to the experience and photo expedition of a lifetime, Orcas is what you are looking for. Photographing orcas underwater in Norway is both a challenge and a dream. I created some of my best photos and definitely some of the best memories up there. And yes, it's cold, but worth every shiver and I can't wait to share this place with you.
​
We will be staying on a fishing vessel turned liveaboard with sleeping accommodation, a common area, private chefs cooking all your meals daily, and a smaller boat for a diving adventures.
​
This expedition focuses on swimming and freediving with orcas and other whales, such as humpback, fin, and occasionally sperm whales! No scuba experience required.
​
The 3 days and 6 days trip offer the same experience with the only difference being the duration of your expedition.
​
1. 3-Day Trip Experience:
• 3 nights aboard the vessel
• 3 full days dedicated to swimming with orcas
2. 6-Day Trip Experience:
• 6 nights aboard the vessel
• 6 complete days immersed in the extraordinary opportunity to swim with these magnificent marine mammals
Both trip lengths offer an extended, in-depth encounter with orcas, allowing you ample time to observe and interact with these incredible creatures in their natural marine environment.

Accommodations and notes
We will stay on a boat the entire time with possible chances to walk around the harbor area while at port at night.
My team and I will do our best to curate the best arctic adventure. The ocean is wild and unpredictable, so keep in mind that conditions like visibility and wind are completely random and wildlife interactions are not guaranteed. With that said we are on an adventure together and we will make the absolute best out of what the ocean and nature offer us.
We will be living together in the same area for a week and must be comfortable with shared accommodations.
