AuthenticAs Star Gazing -Nightscape Portrait Photography Tour

1.AuthenticAs Star Gazing -Nightscape Portrait Photography Tour

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 59 reviews Our pick

Join Simon or Emma for a private two-hour nightscape photography trip near Queenstown. You may photograph the moon and constellations, learn Māori star stories, and have a portrait made beneath the southern sky. Pickup is offered, and the location can be tailored to your group.

“Emma and Simon are lovely people! I came to this with no nightscape photography experience and a few hours later I had some great photos, a good foundation for taking more on my own back home, and a better understanding of the local stories centered on the stars. I’d happily do this again if I get to revisit Queenstown!”
