Photography-Holidays

A successful Responsible Photography Holiday is about experiencing the places we visit, respecting the people we meet and having fun with your camera. Travel with a companion,  travel solo or travel with your own private group. Make the most of your holiday time with a chance to  experience fascinating places, encounter colourful local life and enjoy your photography. We  maintain our founding principles of contributing to community livelihoods, encouraging positive interaction with the people we meet and respecting the environment. We are very privileged to visit some of the places we go to and it is important that the trust placed in us is not compromised. Sometimes it is not appropriate to take photographs, particularly of women and children, so please respect any request to 'hold back' with the camera - enjoy the experience and cherish the memory instead. 

    

         

Perhaps you are a less experienced photographer  who wants to gain confidence and learn more or do you just want to  indulge your passion for adventure travel and photography?  Whichever photo_holiday you choose, there will be lots of photographic opportunities with help, guidance, support, ideas and tips depending on your individual interests or requirements. 

• Themed Photography  
  

Consider using a photography_holiday to produce a personal photo narrative or photography book.  An initial discussion will help determine what you would like to concentrate on. Perhaps it will be pattern and texture, or colour and abstract, a travel documentary or a combination of words and pictures. Join our Nature and Wildlife Photo Holiday and you will be able to include your very own photographs of mountain gorillas.  Review and discussion sessions will help you edit ideas and stay on track with your project.    Everyone  will be encouraged to participate in open discussion to share their photographic knowledge, thoughts, ideas and experience.

      

• Have fun and learn more about photography
  

Do you want to get to know your camera, learn a bit more about photography and have fun at the same time?   Why not join a Responsible Photography Holiday and gain that extra confidence so that you can really enjoy your  photography.  We have fun on our beginners photography holiday week in Morocco which includes structured photo workshops to help you with your photography.

• the basics of photography and your camera               
  
• lighting, composition, positioning
• how to process and prepare your photographs
  
• different ways to present your photographs
  
• take the next step - alternative viewpoints and angles
• introduction to copyright 
  
• taking photographs for a personal project or photography book
  

During all our photo holidays there will be 'discussion' sessions, evening reviews, suggested photography techniques to practice and individual support. We are also aware that many people like to come on a photo holiday not wanting or needing any help, so don't worry - we respect this and leave you in peace to enjoy your photography!   The  number of photography holiday participants won't be exceeded unless you would like a photography holiday or photo workshop for your own private group.
