Instead of just admiring Patagonia’s beautiful autumn landscapes, you can now "freeze" those moments through the lens of a camera.
Luxury travel company andBeyond is offering a small photography expedition from April 15 to 22, 2027, where you can capture Chile’s stunning autumn scenery at its most colourful.
Led by acclaimed photographer and filmmaker Timothy Dhalleine, this once-in-a-lifetime photography journey teaches guests how to truly see a destination through photography, from understanding natural light and timing to capturing meaningful moments.
Guests will travel in a group of just eight people, exploring the wild south of Chile as autumn transforms the region into a kaleidoscope of colours.
The journey begins in Santiago before heading into the breathtaking wilderness of Torres del Paine National Park, widely considered one of South America’s most spectacular natural landscapes.
From there, the adventure continues through the Lake District and Araucania region, concluding around Pucon, where guests will be rewarded with dramatic scenery, which features volcanoes, winding rivers and ancient forests.
One of the biggest highlights is a scenic charter flight over Patagonia, offering photographers a rare bird’s-eye view of glaciers, mountain ranges and terrain that are nearly impossible to experience from the ground.
The experience also includes a practical editing session at andBeyond Vira Vira Lodge, where guests can refine their images using Adobe Lightroom under guidance.
Having lived in Patagonia since 2013, Dhalleine is known for capturing both epic landscapes and human stories.
His work includes documentaries such as The Present and a film featuring legendary climber Chris Bonington.
The Present tells the story of Dimitri, a young Frenchman living with Huntington’s disease, who cycles from Mexico to Patagonia while choosing to live life to the fullest despite his condition.
Another recent project captures Chris Bonington returning to Chilean Patagonia 62 years after his climb of Torre Central del Paine, revisiting the landscape while reflecting on adventure, memory and time.
Prices start from approximately US$16,890 (RM66,360) per person, which will include accommodation, internal transfers, selected meals and photography guidance. International flights, travel insurance and premium beverages are excluded from the price.
