I have been fortunate to have traveled to many exciting places photographing all sorts of incredible scenes of the natural world with Michelle. Whether it be Polar Bears in Northern Canada, or Grizzly Bears in various locales, or birds, or leviathans in the seas, Michelle has the rare fortitude of teaching and explaining while the action is hot! Being able to look at pictures and get good direct feedback on the spot is an invaluable experience! Her focus on having the right equipment and set-up has made all my shoots well prepared for what might come!
I highly recommend learning from Michelle! The highlights of all my travels have always been the photographic opportunities, but also, along with that comes some of the greatest locations and great food and more importantly great camaraderie! I always look for the next opportunity to travel with her and her groups!!

A Journey Through Botswana's Wild Heart and British Columbia's
Majestic Landscapes with Michelle Valberg
My family has embarked on two extraordinary travel adventures, each led by the keen eye and passionate spirit of renowned Canadian wildlife photographer Michelle Valberg. These were not just tours but immersive experiences designed to capture the raw beauty and vibrant cultures of Botswana and the breathtaking grandeur of the Khutzeymateen in British Columbia Canada through our camera lenses, guided by a master storyteller of light and shadow Michelle Valberg.
Michelle Valberg tours are more than just a trip, they are an opportunity to hone your photographic skills, immerse yourself in extraordinary environments while surrounded by the most incredible animals on the planet as you are guided by a passionate and experienced artist. It is a chance to create lasting memories and see the world through a photographer's lens and capture its beauty in your own unique way.

From the moment I met Michelle she offered to help me. I had virtually no idea what I was doing having owned my new camera kit for a few months - literally all the gear & no idea! From that moment on, with Michelle’s kind & gentle help, my anxiety of a new hobby grew into something I love to do now. My husband (who is at a totally different level than me) & I have now done 3 wildlife workshops tours with another 3 booked with Michelle, plus I’ve done her online tutorial too. Apart from being really informative & immensely helpful on a photographic level they have been to spectacularly beautiful places - real bucket list stuff.
Michelle’s organisation of these wonderful tours to extreme places, with her exceptional skill in helping people at all levels, is what keeps people coming back. We have met some wonderful people that we now call friends. Michelle has brought many people together which is another of her many skills. She is a very easy person to love, her passion shines through & she has given me her love of wildlife photography too.
I am really looking forward to our next adventures with Michelle & quite frankly to many more beyond. I would have no hesitation in recommending Michelle to anyone - at any level.

Thank you so much for this thoughtful and joy-filled review! It means the world to hear that your photography journey (and Jenny’s too!) has been reignited through our wildlife adventures together. I’m beyond grateful to be a small part of your story—and yes, full-on Valberg groupies make my heart sing!
Wildlife photography can absolutely test your patience, but it’s also where passion, learning, and connection come alive. I love creating experiences where photographers of all levels feel supported, inspired, and, most of all, connected—to nature, to each other, and to their own creative spark.
It’s been amazing to watch your photography grow with each trip—and don’t worry, your GAS diagnosis is safe with me. 😉 Thank you again for the kind words and for embracing the wild side with such enthusiasm and FUN!

If you've never taken a workshop with Michelle you're missing out on not only improving your photography skills but learning from one of the best photographers on the planet.
I was amazed as I stepped back and watched how effortlessly Michelle approached the scene and composed her shots. How she brought her vision into reality, she is inspiring. Her love of photography is evident throughout the workshop. If you're looking to improve your knowledge of photography or improve your skill level spend a few days in one of Michelle's workshop adventures or attend one of her seminars or webinars.
The workshop I attended with Michelle and Bozeman Camera was top notch. Everything was coordinated like a precise military operation to maximize our time in the field. Michelle and her partners handled every detail of the adventure leaving myself and fellow students nothing to worry about except taking pictures, learning and having a lot of fun!
If you ever have the opportunity to work with Michelle or attend one of her workshops don't hesitate. I am thrilled by what I learned.
Plus, she is the nicest, friendliest person you could have the privilege of meeting.

How does one review the best wildlife photographer in the world? Michelle, who has traveled all 7 continents enriching her viewers' lives with photographs that evoke emotion, majesty and pure joy. She brings the unattainable to us as she often endures hardship, loneliness and great personal sacrifice, to treat us to images of creatures and landscapes we would never have been able to capture even had we been there. Michelle's genius with light magnifies her subjects' like no other. Her inate connectivity with nature is soul-capturing.
I
have had the privilege of travelling with Michelle on some of her journeys and I am always in awe of how her brilliant brain works and what she sees and captures on camera that the rest of us mere mortals miss. How blessed we are that she has been put on this earth to enrich us with its beauty!
