How do we prepare for each Tour
We use our travel experience and knowledge to organise photo tours around the world We travel extensively and have experience in finding unique places for landscape photography. Because we would like to spend quality time with our clients, our photo tours are designed for small groups of people. Be prepared to get up very early in the morning and go to bed well after the sun sets. That's what landscape photography is about and we can promise that you will love to watch the birth of a new day or beautiful colours of sunsets anywhere in the world.
Our photo trips are meticulously planned well in advance so that when we get on location, we are ready to shoot. We spend a lot of time doing research which helps us to figure out what's there, what the place is about and what subject we need to cover. Our sources of information come from many different sources: Visiting places in advance, Web, Travel Books, Brochures, Documentaries, talking to people that already have been there etc.
To get the best out of landscape photography we are always on location well before sunrise or late in the day, just before sun sets down. We make sure that our equipment is set before we leave in the morning as it is hard to change lenses in the dark. To achieve sharp pictures, we always carry our tripods with us, no matter how hard or how far we have to walk.
We usually return to the location a few times as the first time we try to take few photos from different angles and then review them later. Every day is different, so are the conditions in which you take your photos. One day you might experience a beautiful sunrise with very colourful clouds, the next day you might get a gloomy sky just before the storm. All of this adds to the different moods of our pictures.
Since the majority of our photography is done either early or late in the day, we like to "get lost" and wander down alleys, watch people pass by, and talk to locals. We are not afraid to look around the bends, over the rises, and get away from the crowd. We always carry our cameras with us, as we never know what we will run into. Serendipity plays an enormously important role in travel photography.
