+ More details

Description

CHEFCHAOUEN - 4 DAYS STREET PHOTOGRAPHY WORKSHOP
Chefchaouen is famous for being known as the "blue city" and is located in the North of Morocco. This town offers great opportunities for stunning street photography. It is in this beautiful town that I am organising my next photo workshop in January.

WHO IS THIS WORKSHOP FOR?
The Chefchaouen Photography Workshop is ideal for beginners, intermediate and professional Photographers.
These workshops are organised according to the knowledge and interest of the person. If you are a beginner in photography, you will learn how to use your camera in manual mode controlling the ISO, shutter speed and aperture. If you are a professional or have already experience in street Photography, you will improve your skills as to how to approach people and therefore overcome your fears, you will also learn how to capture the daily life of the people in Chefchaouen.

WORKSHOP TIME AND TUITION
This workshop lasts 4 days and 3 nights. The hotel where we will be staying is "Lina Ryad & Spa", located in the middle of the old Medina of Chefchaouen. The price for the 3 nights at the hotel is about 420 Euros for a single room. If the hotel is booked up we will be staying in another similar hotel.

  • I can highly recommend the photo trip with FV. He is a great photographer and knows the medina of Marrakech very well. My goal was to make portraits of people - and it worked. I couldn't have taken those pictures without FV. He was an incredible help and was able to connect to so many people. Anytime again, thank you FV!
