More than a technical class

We offer you a unique experience that is much more than a tutorial on how to use your gear. You will gain all the technical knowledge you need for successful photos, but you will also learn a different way of observing nature and the animal species that inhabit it, and travel with others photographers who share your interests.

Creating successful photos

Do you want to take beautiful pictures, underwater or on land, of landscapes or wildlife, and also bring back wonderful memories of your travels? Perhaps you have dreamed of these photos for years, waiting for a chance to realize them in Europe, Africa, America or Asia. If you still have trouble with technical terms, camera settings, the placement of lighting, and processing photos, then join us for a photography trip. We will help you understand the technical terms and quickly acquire the skills you need to create the photos you dream of.

Do you want to explore new routes to photographic creativity? We will help you free your creativity and channel your imagination to create beautiful, original nature photographs.

By coming with us for an underwater, wildlife or landscape photography workshop, you will benefit from our professional expertise in composition, modern photography techniques, and processing photos on a computer.

By participating in one of our workshops, you will avoid wasting time working alone. We will teach you what you need for successful photos, and we avoid asking unnecessary questions. You can arrange a private course, or participate in a photo trip with a small group of 4 or 5 other people. Either way, we can accommodate our teaching to your level of expertise.

Respecting nature

If, like us, you love the beauties of nature, you will marvel at the wealth of opportunities for beautiful photos available to you. Observing the natural world will always give you great joy.

In order to preserve its beauty, we always respect nature when we take pictures. We do not interfere with fauna or flora. In wildlife photography, we either use a blind or trail the animals. We do not feed them, since this would change their natural behavior. We always obey the rules of the forest. We never disturb a nest or a newborn mammal. If we feel that the creation of a photo may hinder an animal or damage a natural site, we look for another opportunity.

Developing technical expertise

To help you perfect your photographic expertise and knowledge of nature, we give presentations on various subjects. Choosing the right equipment, correctly exposing photos, the rules of composition, and good framing are some of the basics we address. We also give presentations on how to place yourself in relation to the lighting for landscape photos, how to approach an animal, and how to photograph animals underwater.

Our photography trips offer you the perfect combination of technical education and relaxing vacation. Whether you are an experienced photographer or just starting out, we will give you tips and techniques to improve your skills. Our only goal is to teach you how to create beautiful pictures in a pleasant, relaxing setting.

Sharing, motivating, inspiring

We have a motto we always apply for our workshops and our photo trips: sharing, motivating, inspiring.

Sharing: we always share all the techniques with the participants to reach the level they in photography. Whatever their level, from beginner to advanced, we give all the tips and techniques that will improve the photographic technique of trainees.

Motivating: we strive to always push the workshop participants to go further in their photographic approach. We always do in a good mood and constructive feedback.

Inspiring: our workshops and our photo trips plus our educational expertise always inspire the participants to go to new artistic paths that they did not suspect us before to come to meet us.

Sharing knowledge in a relaxing environment

A photography trip with us is primarily a week of vacation and relaxation. It is the best way to meet other photographers who share your passion for the beauties of nature while improving your skills. You can share your inspirations, impressions and technical insights with other photographers. Also, we write reviews of each person’s photos and discuss technical issues with them.

If these descriptions fit you, then our photography trips and workshops are for you.
