Join Award winning photographer Jason Hahn for a unique experience to photograph wolf puppies on the largest wolf preserve in the Southeastern United States. The full day includes two photo sessions with the wolf pups, morning and afternoon. These are not photo sessions shooting through a fence into distant enclosures; rather you will be in with the wolf pups where you will be able to capture amazing photos of these beautiful animals. Jason will be on hand providing instruction, tips, and techniques during your shooting and classroom sessions. In addition, each day will also include a photo session with other small animals at the preserve such as baby raccoon and skunk, opportunities to visit and photograph the resident wolf packs, a midday open topic classroom session, and an evening photo critique session.
Photo Shoot Rules - The preserve staff will monitor the behavior of the wolves and tour group, any directions they provide for the tour participants are to be immediately followed.
The safety of the group and the wolves is our first and foremost concern. In the event that the preserve owners or Jason Hahn observe anyone acting in a fashion that is detrimental to the safety of the group or the wolves, they will be removed from the workshop, no refunds will be provided in this event.
Price - $495 for the full day workshop, which includes 2 photography sessions with the wolves, one small mammal photography session, and an evening critique session. Lunch and snacks will be available at no charge.
Price does not include lodging or transportation to and from the preserve, any gratuities for the preserve staff, or dinner on Saturday night. These are special discounted rates just for this workshop from the standard preserve photography fee.

From Nov 07 "Weekend with Wolves" participants:
"This experience allowed me to make a dream come true. I have always loved wolves and this workshop/tour at Seacrest allowed me to come in close contact with the most magnificent animals. I would recommend a visit here to everyone I know."
"You both did an excellent job with all the people. Your patience and assistance offered to all was outstanding. I was very pleased with the images I took away from Seacrest. It was a great opportunity."
"It was very apparent that quite a lot of thought, planning, and execution was put towards this photo opportunity. It showed because of the smoothness of events. Thank you for your hard efforts."
"Everyone is very friendly and welcoming...the atmosphere is totally relaxed. You'll take more photos then you think you will, so Be Prepared!"
From June 07 "Wolf Puppies" participants:
"Jason's Wolf Pup shoot at Seacrest Wolf Preserve was an absolute incredible experience. He and the owners, Wayne & Cynthia, went out of their way to accomodate our every need and desire. It is obvious that Jason put in a lot of preparatory work to ensure that our shoot would be a success. The chance to be right there with the wolves and their pup's was an experience I will never forget. I would recommend this for any photographer, amatuer to professional."
"Jason, This past Saturday (Wolf Pup Photo Shoot) has been one of the most enriching and rewarding experiences of my life. Not only was I able to walk among these wonderful animals, but I learned more than I ever expected. You, Cynthia, Wayne,(Seacrest Owners) and all the volunteers at Seacrest have done and are doing an amazing thing. Hopefully, I'll be able to attend your next workshop in November. Thanks to you and everyone else who helped make this possible."
