Your Guided Aurora Photography Adventure

Begin your adventure in Rovaniemi, where a local photographer will greet you and ensure you have all the essentials for a comfortable night, including insulated overalls and sturdy winter boots. After a short ride to a prime viewing location selected for its optimal aurora potential, your guide will help set up your camera. Never used a professional camera or tried night photography before? No problem. The guide provides step-by-step assistance with camera settings, composition, and focusing to help you get the best possible shots—even in challenging low light.

Learn from a Professional While You Wait

While waiting for the aurora to reveal itself, relax around a campfire. Your guide shares insights into the science and stories behind the northern lights, describing how this natural phenomenon shapes the lives and traditions of the local Sami and Lappish people. Enjoy authentic reindeer sausage cooked over the flames, with a vegan alternative available on request, and sip hot blueberry juice to stay warm.

Capture the Aurora Borealis

If the sky is clear and conditions are right, you’ll witness the northern lights unfurl across the sky in vibrant greens and purples. Your guide will help you frame the movement and changing colors with your camera for unforgettable photographs. Should you prefer to simply enjoy the spectacle, your guide will also capture professional-grade images of the display and send them to your email after the tour.
