Landscape Photography Workshops
Landscape photography workshops are a great way to get to know the most beautiful places in the world and improve your technique.
I take interesting tours to some breathtaking places in Italy, Norway and Iceland with other professional landscape photographers and local guides.
We will take you to amazing places at the exact time!
Photography Workshops
In photography workshops, you will learn about the correct camera settings for specific conditions, the basics of composition, effective workflow and, of course, landscape photography features.
Each photography workshop is unique and full of information to help you advance your photographic journey.
We have work in the field and processing lessons. And between sessions we spend a lot of time on lessons, processing instructions or excursions and rest.
We all work in the field and have time to teach each other.
During the photo session we have comfortable accommodation in 3-4-star hotels or villas and transfer by minibus or car. If possible, the tour price includes meals.
The most amazing photo contests for beginners are Tuscany, Lofoten Islands and Spain.
Landscape Expedition
We use all our time to work! Photo workshops are small enough, so I or one of the supervisors is with you so you can consult with him. You should know the camera settings very well and have special equipment.
The schedule of the expedition is full of hikes, sessions and hard work on the subject. Usually you should fit well. We have a lot of fun, too.
Accommodation is possible in tents and camping sites or places most convenient for future shooting. Expedition is a kind of extreme travel.
Description of each seminar or expedition on landscape photography includes information about the necessary equipment, photo equipment, level of physical training, accommodation, etc.

About Marat
Since 2005, I’ve been fond of photography. I like landscapes and architectural photos the most. I would like to share my passion and knowledge with you and teach you how I see nature.
2017 I wrote in the Lofoten Islands Guide book. A guide for photographers and travelers. It was a challenging and interesting project. You can check my gallery to see which photos you can take home, our photo tours and photo workshops.
Skill level
Please read the description carefully and choose the most appropriate one for your level. Most workshops have basic and intermediate skill levels. But the tour leader will always help you if you need it.

Group limits
These are small groups of 6 participants. If the group has more participants we will have 2-3 guides.
