What to Expect

Slovenia is a palce of amazing natural beauty, a place where the photos just dont convince you this place is real. Well I can tell you, it is really and it is magical.

Alot of my clients would regard me a “mountain goat”, I wont disagree. But that doesn’t mean I don’t love a bit of chill and relaxation too. That’s exactly what Slovenia is,  a place to enjoy the landscapes in all their beauty and peace without the need for rushing around, panicking while looking for compositions.

Slovenia is truly spectacular, one of my favourite palces in the world. The people, the food, the dreamlike landscapes and the zen feel make it the perfect place to photograph and come home feeling like you’ve been on a holiday in paradise.

During this workshop we will spend our 4 nights in a beautiful hotel with single occupancy and breakfast each morning. We are right in the middle of Bled so close to all amenities like restaurants, cafes, shops and of course Lake Bled.

There will be NO SET itinerary for this trip as I prefer to keep a close eye on weather forecasts throughout the tour to determine our destination and make sure we have the best possible weather that may suit a specific place.

YES YES, The rumours are true… We do have a knack of getting our groups in the right place at the right time, ensuring you capture a truly memorable shot you can cherish for the rest of your life. To us, capturing “the shot” is important but just as important is to enjoy the experience, when we get to a location take a minute to breath in the fresh air and really appreciate the views around us.
