PhotoTour Excursions is the Washington, DC, regions’ only photography instruction and narrated tour guide experience. Aspiring and amateur photographers learn to take great photos while visiting the best vacation sights in the area.
Excursions are led by second-generation photographer, Lyn Morton. Lyn grew up helping his dad develop pictures in their home darkroom, then worked as an assistant, and finally graduated to the second shooter on their assignments. In college, Lyn studied photography as part of a public relations and journalism degree. Since then, he has built a body of work that includes event, weddings, photojournalism, portraits and lifestyle photography.
PhotoTour Excursions is an outgrowth of a photography club Lyn founded. The group provides a friendly atmosphere for photographers to gather and shoot scenic and interesting locations. The club quickly became a favorite of many photographers, with its membership growing to almost 400 shutterbugs in just one year.
It was on these tours that Lyn recognized a great number of the photographers sought someone to help teach them the basics of their cameras and principles of great photography.
PhotoTour Excursions provides the opportunity for photographers to get personal and structured instruction on improving their photography skills. PhotoTour Excursions rounds out the learning experience by sharing background and narrated tour guide information at each location. Photographers who want to learn to take great pictures at favorite vacation destinations can join an excursion any weekend of the year.
