Picture a predawn boat ride through ancient cypress corridors — Spanish moss drifting, mist rising, the first light of dawn turning the water gold — surrounded by a group of women photographers as passionate about this moment as you are.

Our Caddo Lake Women's Photography Tour is an exclusive retreat into one of Texas's most extraordinary landscapes, led by expert wildlife photographer Melissa Scott. Small group. Expert instruction. Intimate, powerful imagery.

“As with every Photo Safaris we have taken, it was a unique experience in amazing settings, with an excellent tour leader. What I liked most was the amazing hospitality of the lodge staff, wanting to meet all of our needs. Our local guide went above and beyond. He was considerate, communicative, and just a kind human being, very knowledgeable about the brown bears.”

Two legends. Two tours. One unforgettable journey through East Africa.

We're thrilled to announce that Van Os Photo Safaris has partnered with Joe and Mary Ann McDonald, two of the most accomplished wildlife photographers working today, to lead a pair of back-to-back photo safaris in early 2027.

With nearly four decades of African safari experience between them, Joe and Mary Ann bring a depth of knowledge and a teaching approach that's genuinely rare. Whether you join one tour or both, you'll be in extraordinary hands in extraordinary places.
