The Alaskan Experience is a two-day adventure with glacial explorations from the sky and land.

Helicopter glacier tours. Private landings on ancient ice. Windswept portraits against jaw-dropping wilderness.

This is Alaska like you’ve only ever dreamed of – and portraits you’ll never forget.

 

THE PLAN

JUNE 11TH – HIGHLIGHT DAY (Helicopter Glacier Tour)

Our main portrait day – we’re going B I G with a 2-hour afternoon private helicopter tour with at least one glacier landing.

Landing sites are weather-dependent, but there is no part of the glacier that isn’t absolutely jaw-dropping and worth the surprise.

We’ll pick one outfit (maybe two) to wear for these portraits, plus silk fabric for movement.

 

IMPORTANT TO KNOW:
– Female pilot requested (company knows our plan and is working to make it happen; all pilots are professional and trustworthy)
– Pilot flies us to the spot, walks us over, then returns to helicopter (privacy + safety)
– We have a backup plan if weather doesn’t cooperate!

 

JUNE 12TH – BACKUP/BONUS DAY

This day serves two purposes:

**Plan A:** Bonus land-based adventure at Byron Glacier (or another local spot – I’m scouting three locations earlier in the week to decide collaboratively with you)

**Plan B:** If weather doesn’t cooperate on the 11th, we’ll do land-based portraits that day and use the 12th as our helicopter backup

 

WHAT’S INCLUDED

✓ Planning call to go over details and wardrobe
✓ Curated wardrobe from the Lilac & Fern Closet

✗ Helicopter tour costs (split among the group; but expected to be $900-1,400/person)

P.S. This is a BETA experience – which means the session is FREE and you get to help shape what this becomes. Next year’s Alaska adventure will be iconic… but it won’t be free. If you want in and want to help create this experience, this is the year to do it!
