An Uncertain Adventure

Caddo Lake, found deep in the heart of East Texas, is a unique swamp area filled with moss-covered Bald Cypress trees, abundant wildlife, and a remarkable ecosystem with rich biodiversity.

But for a few weeks in November, this special place transforms into a magical, mystical hideaway that offers some of the most beautiful fall colors the South has to offer. Pastel colors placed atop the gray bald cypress trees with perfectly still waters (and sometimes a layer of fog rising from the water) can create lasting memories and an amazing photography experience.

Your Workshop Guide

Join us for 5 days and 4 nights in the beautiful swamps of Caddo Lake, where you can experience and photograph the vibrant Bald Cypress trees and the incredible wildlife in the area.

The workshop includes beautiful resort home right on the bayou and features 4 fascinating boat tours led by the best boat captain in the swamp and 2 canoes/kayak trips.

I assure you, after spending a few days in the small, unassuming community of Uncertain, TX, this will be an adventure you won't soon forget.
