"David knows all of the best locations, so you don't have to waste precious time chasing the light around. Not only is David a great photographer, but he's a great teacher as well, and I wound up learning a tremendous amount (better composition and focus, intricate workings of the camera beyond simply reviewing the histogram, night photography pointers, etc.). Highly recommended, will book with again next time."

"David Swindler is one of the best at what he does. He is passionate about landscape photography and about creating the ‘perfect’ photo tour for his clients. You will enjoy and benefit from David’s knowledge of photography, his experience of this unique and beautiful terrain and his wit. It is truly the photographic expedition of a lifetime!"
-Marie - Rhode Island
We spent five days with David - hiking, photographing, and learning from him. His knowledge of the area enabled us to see places we would not have been able to see otherwise. His photography instruction was excellent, and he knew the best places to go and the optimal time to be there to get the best photographs. He was always pleasant, adaptable, and ready to lend a helping hand.

"I booked two outings, the first a private overnight night photography tour with camping to White Pocket with David Swindle and I am extremely pleased with the results and the entire experience. He was an excellent guide, great cook, and his photography work is simply stunning. He is very knowledgeable and easy to work with. He has a eye for detail, lighting and crafting very compelling compositions and generously shares his secrets."

"I joined a sunset trip to White Pocket with Action Photo Tours. Our guide Ingrid was a highly experienced nature guide and we had a great day shooting this fantastic place! I would book another tour with Action Photo Tours anytime, if I get back to this region. It is highly recommended to anyone interested in landscape and night photography."
-Ruben - Switzerland
David Swindler is a true professional and he exceeded our expectations in every way. He's incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. Without a doubt, I will be recommending him to any of my friends that may be interesting in exploring this area."

4WD Fleet
Due to the remote locations we visit at Action Photo Tours, 4WD vehicles are a must. Depending on how many people we have going, we'll either use the Toyota Tacoma or the Chevy Suburban. Both vehicles have plenty of room for your photo gear and or overnight accessories. Leave the rough driving to us and enjoy peace of mind that you won't get stuck in the deep sand or mud.
Our Utah Photo Tours are the perfect way to improve your skills and learn new techniques! When you travel, time is limited and you want to make the most of your experience. It can take days of scouting and research to find the best spots. That's where Action Photo Tours comes in. We'll take you off the beaten path and help you get the best photos. It's always an adventure with us and we craft each outing to meet the unique needs of the visiting photographer. It doesn't matter whether it's a one-day trip or a multi-day expedition, Action Photo Tours is your best choice for Utah Photo Tours!
