Back in March, I had the opportunity to photograph dog sledding for Tourism Ontario. It was my first time ever doing it, and holy **** it was amazing.
Spent the morning half shooting from the sled itself – which was tons of fun, but definitely a bit of a challenge. Got some great shots, although my 5D definitely did a few snow face plants…especially when the dogs flipped the sled over at one point! Luckily the 5D (and I had a 7D) as well as the L lenses I packed were able to handle the conditions.
The afternoon was just as intensive shooting from a snow mobile. All in all, a great experience and a great shoot. For anyone who’s never tried dog sledding, do it. Maybe something to look forward too for next season.

Marlene Talbot - Yes it is an amazing experience but a little expensive for the average family but probably worthwhile trying at least once.
We treated our grandgirls to this experience on “family day”
last February in the Haliburton Forest. You will have to join
us sometime so we can give you another healthy rush next year.
As usual great shot and such talent. When can we hire you to take Karen’s picture?
