HELENA, Mont., Aug. 25, 2017 /PRNewswire/ — “I would say that people come to Montana because they want to be in the mountains,” said Neil Chaput, “they want to be away from the big crowds, and they want to be out in nature.”

“I’ve been to Fiji, I’ve been to Chile, and the mountains of Canada,” said student Maria Trujillo. “But Montana is an area that has a soul.”
With over 40 years of teaching experience, Neil leads students on a one-of-a-kind photography tour of Montana’s golden forests, wave-crested rivers, and picture perfect mountain peaks.
“…Photography has changed a whole lot,” said Chaput. “But the landscape of Montana still looks just as beautiful as it’s always looked.”
