Rare chance to join professional photographer in ocean

OCEAN and wildlife photographer Craig Parry is teaming up with The Reveling Experiences team with a specially-designed guided tour to highlight his internationally acclaimed work to travelling safari groups.

Parry runs his own business at Lennox Head and is a multi-award-winning photographer with more than 25 years’ experience.

The two inaugural experiences the Blue Frontier Safari and East Coast Elements invite emerging and passionate photographers to explore Australia’s diverse ecosystems.

The frontier offers a chance to see two world heritage-listed marine and coastal environments: K’gari (Fraser Island) and Lady Elliot Island on the Southern Great Barrier Reef.

It is a five-day photographic expedition that combines underwater adventure with terrestrial landscapes.

“I always get messages from people who want me to share what I’m seeing. I’ve taken some of them overseas, but I’ve never done it here domestically, so it’s exciting,” Parry said.

“I enjoy teaching people and being able to show them any hidden secrets that they might want to take home with them.”

The East Coast Elements trip features humpback whales breaching at sunrise and a helicopter shoot over the Gold Coast.

Parry will also lead a shoot through the Northern Rivers hinterlands and along untamed surf breaks with an exclusive surf photography session with Olympian and former world tour pro Bede Durbidge.

The experience finishes with a private, behind-the-scenes food photography session at the acclaimed Pipit Restaurant, hosted by award-winning chef Ben Devlin.

“These journeys are designed to help guests build technical confidence while capturing images that feel alive with the texture, colour, and soul of Australia’s wild places.” Parry said.

“We’re spoiled for choice on the Northern Rivers, whether you’re looking at the ocean life or up in the hinterland, it’s an all-year round beauty.”

Parry has recently working with Tourism Australia, and spent most of last year creating an online photography workshop.

“Craig brings a rare combination of global expertise and deep respect for nature, making him the perfect guide for these journeys,” managing director of Reveling Drew Campbell said.
