Oregon Coast Photography Expedition

May 27–31, 2027 | Bandon & Southern Oregon Coast

Discover the extraordinary beauty of the southern Oregon Coast, where towering sea stacks, rugged cliffs, crashing surf, and atmospheric Pacific light create some of the most compelling coastal landscapes in North America.

Join photographer Andrew Slaton for five days exploring the spectacular coastline surrounding Bandon, Oregon. From dramatic rock formations rising out of the surf to intimate tidal details and sweeping ocean vistas, this expedition is designed to help you see the coast in new ways and create photographs that capture its wild, timeless character.

We'll emphasize creative seascape photography, working with long exposures, filters, moving water, and the changing moods of coastal light. When conditions allow, we'll also explore night photography and aerial perspectives with drones.
