I've also heard from some outdoor photog pros, that leading workshops/tours
in national parks can also be costly if/when the park officials find out.

Commercial shooters, whether it be for advertising or entertainment
purposes, have to obtain permits to shoot in national parks. As far as I
know, hobby shooters don't have to obtain permits. I've shot cars in
county parks without a permit. The first time I did it I checked at the
park office. I told them that my profit margin was very thin, and I really
couldn't afford a permit. They said that in theory I should have a permit,
but since it was a quick low-dollar job, I should just shoot and make sure
not to get in anyone's way or block traffic. I never asked again. I just
shoot and will apologize later if necessary.

I've never paid anything more than admission to all the national parks
I've
visited.
