BUCKET LIST ENERGY UNLOCKED…
Curated Adventures aren’t just trips. They’re UNLOCKED.
We know it. You know it.
Everyone has Iceland on their bucket list.
But here’s how it works:
We’re opening Jackson Hole, Wyoming first.
And when you secure your spot in Jackson Hole…
✨ Iceland registrations unlocks for YOU ✨
For 30 days only after your Jackson Hole purchase, you’ll get exclusive early access to reserve a spot for our Iceland Curated Adventure. (Yes there will be a payment plan for Iceland!)
WAIT—WHAT?!
Yes. Really.
Iceland won’t open to the general public until August 2026, and space will be extremely limited.
If Iceland 2027 is a non-negotiable dream on your bucket list, this is how you guarantee your spot.
Jackson Hole isn’t just the first adventure.
It’s the key.

FAQs
What exactly is Curated Adventures?
Curated Adventures is the evolution of our popular Destination events-curated photography journeys designed to combine hands-on education, portfolio-building, and unforgettable travel experiences. Think epic locations, real senior models, and a creative community to grow with.
Who are SSG Adventures for?
They’re built for photographers at any stage who want to:
Elevate their senior portfolio with travel-based sessions
Learn hands-on
Connect with other creatives in a supportive, high-energy environment.
If that sounds like you, you belong here!
Make A Family Vacation Out Of This!
Many attendees turn Our Adventures into a full family getaway. While the curated experience, shoots, and education are designed specifically for photographers, the location itself is perfect for families to explore before and after, your adventure days.
We recommend:
Arriving early or extending your stay
Booking family friendly accommodations nearby
Treating the Curated Adventure experience as your creative anchor within a larger vacation
During our scheduled activities, you’ll be fully immersed in the curated experience while your family enjoys everything the destination has to offer. After hours? It’s all yours.
This is about more than travel.
It’s about creating memories both creatively and personally.
How many seats are available?
Each Adventure has very limited seats-once they’re gone, they’re gone. This keeps the experience intimate, ensures you have plenty of time to shoot, and creates a tight-knit community vibe. (Translation: don’t wait!)
What is the refund policy?
There are no refunds for a Curated Adventures event. However, if you can no longer attend, you’re welcome to sell or transfer your seat to another photographer. (We’ll even help share your post in the community if needed!)
What is the payment plan?
You can choose the option that works best for you:
Pay in Full: $895
Payment Plan: $995 total
The payment plan allows you to secure your spot with a lower upfront cost while spreading payments over time. Full details and available payment schedule options will be shown at checkout.
No matter which option you choose, your spot is officially reserved once your first payment is completed.
Are food, travel, and lodging included?
No—food, travel expenses, and lodging are not included in your Curated Adventures seat. This gives you the freedom to plan your trip your way-whether that’s booking a boutique hotel, sharing an Airbnb with other attendees, or grabbing local eats between shoots. We’ll provide recommendations to help you plan, but how you travel + stay is up to you.
Can I bring a friend, spouse, or assistant to help me?
No—only registered attendees are allowed at Curated Adventures activities and shoots. Each seat is for one photographer only. This ensures everyone gets equal shooting time, instruction, and the intimate experience we’ve designed.
That said, we do encourage you to extend your stay and enjoy the destination with your family or friends once the shoot is over. Make it a creative trip and a personal getaway!
I Want To Go To Iceland Too! How do I secure a spot?
Not into waiting and hoping?
Book Jackson Hole first.
Your Wyoming reservation unlocks early access to Iceland, giving you the confidence of knowing you’re set for both bucket-list adventures no stress, no scrambling.
