Small-group wildlife photography workshops in extraordinary ecosystems.
Welcome! I’m Jackie Schletter, a wildlife photographer and workshop leader dedicated to helping photographers create intentional, stunning and artful images in wild places.
In the field, we work side-by-side to anticipate behavior, master challenging light, take advantage of beautiful light, and refine personal vision. You’ll leave with stronger skills, greater confidence, and a deeper understanding of how to truly see.

Experience & Recognition
I’ve spent thousands of hours in the field photographing wildlife in various locations and habitats. My work has been recognized in national and international competitions, and I’m a proud member of the American Photographic Artists (APA) and NANPA, organizations that stay in touch with both nature photography and the potential for creativity.
More importantly, I lead workshops with one goal: helping photographers leave stronger than they arrived.
"Jackie is a natural teacher. Her joy and enthusiasm for wildlife photography brought an infectious energy to our workshop. Her enthusiasm carried over into our daily workshops where she taught us to creatively process our photos and turn them into art."
"Jackie’s presence and availability. She made sure to check in with everyone while we were shooting. She provided a calm and supportive atmosphere whatever level of photographer you are."
