The Discovery's professional staff combined with Prince William Sound's abundant wildlife and birding photography opportunities, make the perfect combination for compelling photography. Captain Rand, an avid photographer himself, is familiar with the complex demands often involved with capturing great photos, and he and the Discovery crew understand the necessary needs, elements and interests of photographers: positioning the vessel, operating inflatable skiffs, critical maneuvering, timing of lighting and an intimate knowledge of the sounds secret treasures.

The Discovery is available to charter for film crews, videographers, photo clubs, or groups wanting a voyage with an emphasis on photography. We invite you to organize your own trip or participate in our scheduled Discovery Photo Voyage, guided by a professional Alaskan photographer.
