Thank you all very much for your interest. The scouting workshop series for 2012 is now full. See you all next year!
Here is an idea I have been mulling over for a little while and I thought I’d share it with you and see where it takes us from here.
Last year, I took a client of mine on what I call a “scouting workshop” to Morocco. A scouting workshop you say? The idea behind this is very simple. How would you feel about coming along with me, one on one, to a location of your choice on a discovery tour for a one to two week period. It’s not a tour per se since I won’t know the place ahead of time, but it is one of those rare chances to have your own photo instructor coming along on your trip to some exotic locale!
What would you get out of it?
- once we decide on a destination, I do all the research, the bookings, the organisation, all you need to do is show up;
- you get me for one on one 24/7 teaching/advice/consultation/critique. Any question. Any time. I am there to answer (ok, I do need to sleep a bit, but not much).
- a unique opportunity to see travel photography behind the scenes: how I approach my subjects, how I deal with logistics, I how I plan trips, etc, etc.
- flexibility to spend as little or as much time as you would like in given places: contrary to a group tour, this one is only about you and you alone.
- affordability, since this is not a tour per se, my workshop fee will be reduced accordingly. costs are then split 50/50.
How does this sound? Are you interested?
How does it work?
It’s very simple, I have a few destinations I am interested in, but am open to suggestions (See list below). You get in touch with me, we discuss the destination, the timing, the duration. I set it up for you. We go. That’s it.
Here are my destinations of choice (in no particular order):
Iceland | Argentina (patagonia) | China (guilin/huangshang) | Vietnam (Halong Bay) | Croatia | Greece | Turkey | Italy | Portugal | Romania
If you feel like kicking the tires on one of these places, just give me a holler, I am all ears.

Sounds awesome to me, especially if it keeps the overall cost within my budget.
The idea is to keep it manageable in cost, hence the cost splitting
A very interesting concept. Definitely interested in any of the locations, except Croatia, having been there, and Romania.
I will get in touch with you Perry, it’s been a while anyway
I would be interested too. I have been to couple of these places but I can go again. Iceland would be at the top of my list. I am from India and we can do a trip to India too ( Leh/ Ladakh, etc).
I hadn’t though of India, but Leh/Ladakh would be fantastic as well. Drop me a line if you want to work something out.
Drop me an email. I am definitely interested. Are you flexible? As I said, I can go to other destinations too besides India. Have to coordinate time and permission from the wifey.
Yep. Timing and job depending, I’m interested in the exact order you have.
See, I wrote this one just for you Hagen

End of May/June is my likely target time…
