Additional Information

One of the best times to see and and experience Cape Cod is after dark when the landscape is lit by starlight or moonlight. These times also give you the opportunity to visit and travel between destinations during hours that many people are asleep making these places quiet and serene.

This tour is available for all experience levels.

Night photography is a fantastic way to capture popular or “over shot” subjects in new ways. We’ll use long exposure techniques and flashlights to create an immersive art experience.

If you’ve never visited the Cape Cod area and are unsure of where the best subjects are, this tour ensures you get the best locations based on the sky conditions available.

Choose between a moonlight or starlight(Milky Way) tour! Contact me for the date range you are available for more information on moon phase and sky information.

Please contact me for availability before booking.

A must do for photographers - Tim was absolutely awesome! The sky was a bit cloudy but that didn’t stop us from getting some great shots. I learned a ton about light painting, exposure settings, and local history as well! I’d recommend this to anyone looking to get some memorable shots and learn Astro photography!

Tim Little..Cape Cod night photographer extraordinaire - I've known Tim and have taken his workshop classes now for 7 years...There isnt a workshop that I've taken where I haven't come away with a new sense of knowledge..satisfaction..and a great time. If there is a more knowledgeable night time photographer on Cape Cod..I'd like to meet him. Tim takes the time to explain to everyone in his small groups what each workshop will be like...places we'll be going..settings...and he takes the time to seek out each person in the group to assist in any way you can. There's only one name in Cape Cod night photography.....Tim Little

Guided night tour. - My friend/neighbor and I had a great experience with Tim on his Cape Cod guided night tour, under the harvest moon. Tim's enthusiasm was contagious and his patience was something we both appreciated. I learned a great deal about low-light shooting with my Sony, including camera functions I never would have changed or considered, and came back with solid tips on low-light manual focusing, timing of exposures, and best settings. I plan to take Tim's astrophotography class in the spring, and greatly look forward to it!

Easily worth it for photography enthusiasts - I loved my night photography tour. A few days before, Tim and I discussed my interests and what I was looking for. The night of the tour, Tim picked me up around 9:30pm and we went to three different locations. At each site, Tim helped find compositions, helped light paint the scene, and gave feedback on shots. It really felt like we were team. I was able to get a lot of great photos that I was really happy with. The whole tour lasted for around 4 hours. The whole time, Tim was really nice and easy to talk to. If we go back up to Cape Cod again, I’d definitely consider taking another tour with Tim. It was a really great experience.
