Bandon Photo Walks
Join an old man with his camera
I’m Doug — a retired engineer, camera nerd, and your friendly photo guide. I don’t take your picture. I help you take them. I’ve spent decades building businesses, managing projects, mentoring interns, and chasing light. Now I guide curious folks through Bandon’s beauty — one shutter click at a time.
Our tours include professional guidance to help you find great photo spots, improve your technique, and create better images, and may include a curated experience tailored to your interests.
Cost: $80 (I’m retired)
What to expect
Guided experience: I will take you to specific locations to maximize your photographic opportunities within a two-hour timeframe, usually starting 60-90 minutes before sunset, for the best sunset experience.
Personalized assistance: I can help you with specific technical questions, creative ideas, or in finding the best angles and compositions, regardless of your skill level.
Location scouting: I have local knowledge of the best spots for various lighting conditions and scenes, which saves you time and effort trying to find the top locations on your own.
