Last Chance for Fall Cypress Swamp Photo Tours
Cypress Scene captured on the morning of November 5th, 2023, showcasing the tranquil beauty of Southern Louisiana’s wetlands.
Autumn is here, and so is the peak season for photographing Louisiana’s cypress swamps. This is your last chance to join my Fall Cypress Swamp Photo Tours in November and December. Spaces are limited, and once they’re gone, they’re gone until next year.
Experience the Magic of Louisiana’s Swamps
Morning sessions by boat – photograph fiery red and gold cypress trees reflected in still waters, often with mist or backlit fog for atmosphere.
Afternoon explorations – Rip Van Winkle Gardens, and additional opportunities at Lake Martin.
Sunset opportunities – Lake Martin offers dramatic skies and reflections to make the most of the end of the day.
Small groups mean personalized guidance and easy access to prime locations. Whether you’re looking to refine your technique or simply immerse yourself in Louisiana’s autumn beauty, this tour is designed to inspire.
👉 Reserve Your Spot Now, November 2–5, November 16–19, December 1–4

Why Louisiana? Why Now?
Many photographers head to Caddo Lake in Texas, but Louisiana offers a different experience:
Fewer competing photographers — more space and freedom to create.
Later peak season — perfect timing if you’ve already visited Caddo.
Rich Louisiana culture and food — enjoy the full experience while creating unforgettable images.

Time is Running Out
Fall colors in the swamps don’t last long, and neither do these spots. A small group size ensures everyone gets the best vantage points, but it also means space is extremely limited.
If you’ve been considering it, now is the time.

Closing Note
I’d love to see you in the swamp this fall, capturing the unforgettable beauty of Louisiana’s cypress trees in peak autumn color.
Stay tuned for October’s newsletter where I’ll share more Nikon Z8 tips and spring tour updates.
Until then — happy shooting,
Charlie
