Landscape Photography Workshops
Landscape photography workshops are a wonderful way to experience the world’s most beautiful places and improve your technique.
I lead interesting signature tours to some breathtaking places in Italy, Norway, and Iceland, with other professional landscape photographers and local guides.
We bring you to amazing locations at the exact time!
Photography Workshops
During the photography workshops, you’ll learn about the right camera settings for certain conditions, composition basics, efficient workflow, and of course, landscape photography specifics.
Every photography workshop available is unique and packed with information that will help you progress along your photographic journey.
We have outdoor sessions and processing schedule. And in between sessions we spend lots of time on lessons, processing instruction or excursions and rest.
We work altogether in the field and have time to teach each other in-fields.
During the photography workshop, we have comfortable accommodation in 3-4 stars hotels or villas and transfer by minibus or cars. If it is possible, the price of the tour includes meals.
Most amazing photography workshops for beginners are Tuscany, Lofoten Islands and Spain.
Landscape Expedition
We use all our time to work! Photography Workshops are small enough so I or one of the leaders are nearby for you to consult with him. You should know your camera settings very well and have special equipment.
Expedition schedule is packed with hikes, sessions and hard work on a subject. Usually, you should have a good fit. We have a lot of fun too.
Accommodation is possible in tents and camping or places most convenient for future shooting. The expedition is a bit of an extreme journey.
Description of each landscape photography workshops or expedition includes information about needed equipment, photo gear, fitness level, accommodation and etc.

All locations are easy and medium difficulty. And the whole workshop we can easily adjust the whole workshop to the fitness level of the group. We will never go to dangerous or hard locations.

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