TESTIMONIALS
"My family of 4, with 2 teenage daughters LOVED our photo tour with Lisa! She was able to teach each of us to the level we were at, from my budding 12 year old future Wildlife Photographer, to myself who only knew how to zoom. Lol! Lisa taught us so many cool settings on our cameras (and on my iPhone! Shhhh!) She knew all the best spots to find the animals and helped with some composition suggestions. Lisa was patient and great with the kids. I would highly recommend Lisa’s tour to everyone and look forward to booking a tour with her again in the future." C .Marshall, ~ June 2021
"This was a dream of mine since I discovered Lisa and her photography. Spending the day with her and her knowledge of not only the camera but Yellowstone itself was a once in a lifetime opportunity. She knew the park so well and knew exactly where to go to have the best chance to find the wildlife that I hoped to see. Not only did I learn so much about my camera and how to take the best pictures, I had a blast with her! I highly recommend Touring Wonderland to beginners like myself or to the advanced photographer. As I tell everyone, I was so honored and privileged to spend the day with my 'photography idol'! "~ K. Haschke, June 2018
"Lisa, our day with you absolutely met my expectations. I really appreciated your knowledge of the park and also that you gave us opportunities to use all of the important tools in my camera bag...from tripods, to filters, to macro, to zooms to wide angle. I was able to see the park from its grandeur, magnitude and scale, but also from the minutiae. It was great fun, and I learned so much. I now approach each photo opp with the question, "what is my priority?" I don't always get it right, but at least I'm thinking. .....and I am shooting in M mode as opposed to my comfort zone of AV." ~ L.Breihan, June 2016
"Lisa is a fantastic guide and I would recommend her highly to anyone wanting to improve their nature photography skills." ~ R.Link, September 2016
"In all cases Lisa Culpepper is a consummate professional. Her knowledge of camera technology and Park environments is unsurpassed. Lisa is quite adept at moving up and down the scale of knowledge depending on the information uptake of the student. Lisa has made an awareness and knowledge of the Park a hallmark of her work with photography students and her approach to the transmission of this knowledge goes beyond facts and enters the area of attitude and consciousness of preservation concepts. Truly the best part of your day with Lisa is being absorbed into the world of Yellowstone and realizing all of the wonderful ways to enjoy the Park either through the camera's eye or through conversation with Lisa." ~ J.

"First, my wife and I have developed a special friendship with Lisa. We feel so lucky to know her and look forward to many more times together. Our priority for this specific tour was Photography Instruction. Lisa is extremely knowledgeable with the many facets of photography and she truly knows Yellowstone Park. What makes her most special is her beautifully paced approach to instruction. She established key principles of photography for us and regularly referred back to them as we progressed through the day, which is a very seasoned teaching approach. She is always kind and motivating; she makes the learning process very enjoyable. I also want to add the Lisa keeps safety a first priority; much appreciated! Lisa ensured that she fully understood our goals for the tour, in advance of the tour, and she perfectly worked with us to achieve our goals. I cannot wait till we do this again!!" ~ M. Stannard, March 2017
"Lisa is so knowledgeable about photography, the different settings on my camera and the incredible Yellowstone Park! I've had the opportunity of working with Lisa at least 4 times and each time I learn something new and discover things I didn't know about the park. Spending a day with Touring Wonderland is always the highlight of my trip to my favorite park, Yellowstone!! I would reccomend this experience for anyone who loves taking photographs and enjoys our incredible national parks! " ~ J. Lacerte, May 2017
"We had a great day with Lisa. She was very knowledgeable about the park and my camera. She took us to places we wouldn't have known were there without her guidance." ~ G. Farmer, September 2017
"We had a day with Lisa Culpepper, and SHE made it a remarkable, informative, exciting and memorable day unlike any other in our lives. If Lisa Culpepper works for Touring Wonderland (TW), and TW is sponsoring this feedback survey, then TW is EXCEPTIONALLY FORTUNATE TO HAVE LISA CULPEPPER on your roster of guides, and you should do everything in your power to retain her. LISA - her personality, her knowledge, her wonderful teaching manner, her pointers, her informative answers to all of our questions, her gentle sense of humor, her evident love of the Yellowstone landscape and its wildlife, plot life, and other blessings, made this day with her the highlight of our 6 days in Yellowstone and the Tetons." ~ B. O'Connor September 2018
Thank you for your feedback! It is an honor to share Yellowstone with all of you, and deepen the powerful connection between ourselves, our cameras, and the natural world we are all a part of. We are creating awareness, whether we know it or not, one capture at a time! Until next time, Happy Shooting! ~ Lisa
