About this Event
The Camera Company and Tamron welcome you to take part in our expedition to Wisconsin's wildest zoo.
Join us for an engaging wildlife photography seminar where we explore the tools and techniques needed to create compelling images of the natural world. We'll cover how to get the most out of your camera settings in the field, the importance of researching animal behavior and habitats, and learn how to build thoughtful compositions that go beyond snapshots. Whether you're photographing birds, mammals, or insects, this class will help elevate your approach and results.

Section 2 – In the Field at Shalom Wildlife Sanctuary

Tamron will have lenses on hand, ready to loan out to participants. The Shalom Wildlife Sanctuary is set up for people to have good views of the animals to get fantastic photos.
Home to 75 species and more than 750 animals. Shalom offers a unique twist from a typical zoo experience. Many animal residents have large natural habitats, which gives you an atmosphere more like a park. There are over four miles of roads, and you can interact with some of the animals.
