Slovenia

Photograph the Amazing Scenery and Culture of Slovenia

June 9 – 19, 2024

Experience a range of incredible photographic locations and experiment with various photography techniques in this 9-day workshop. With fantastic photo ops all day and night, we’ll travel by comfortable minivan, stay in well-chosen, high-quality accommodations and eat excellent food.

Discover the beautiful country of Slovenia with your camera in hand and capture stunning images of mountain landscapes, glacial lakes, and rivers, as well as scenes of everyday life in traditional villages. Explore Lake Bled and its iconic church on Bled Island, starting with sunrise at the shore and ending with sunset from a stunning vantage point. Contrast this with the more tranquil but equally inspiring Lake Bohinj in the heart of the Julian Alps. We’ll shoot creative long exposures to capture fast-flowing rivers and waterfalls at Vintgar Gorge and travel through many picturesque villages to shoot traditional hayracks and agricultural details and document a slower pace of life. We’ll photograph the vineyards, stone-built villages of Karst, salt pans, and seacoast. Finally, we discover the warmth and charm of Ljubljana with its contrasting styles of architecture, café culture, and bustling riverbank and markets, each day capturing amazing sunrises, sunsets, and night sky as well.

During this workshop, you will learn the finer points of composition and the art of “seeing. ” We will also spend time in the field helping you with long exposures, panoramas, and night photography. We will also spend time in the classroom doing image reviews and post-processing with Lightroom.
