What should you bring?

Camera equipment

• Camera
  You should obviously bring your camera, preferably a DSLR or mirrorless camera. Compact cameras or smartphones are not recommended.

• Lenses
  Bringing various lenses will allow you to capture the landscape from different angles.
  You should at least bring a standard lens (24-70mm on a full-frame sensor). A wide angle lens and a telephoto lens such as 70-200mm can also be very useful. Bringing a macro lens will allow you to create close-up shots.

• Other equipment
  You should definitely bring a tripod for this workshop. You will also need spare batteries. If you own any filters, you should bring them too.

• Manual for your camera

Clothes

Since this workshop will take place outside, please dress appropriately depending on the weather conditions. You should also wear good hiking shoes. In case of cold weather don't forget your gloves.

Location

The iconic Mullerthal, also known as Luxembourg's Little Switzerland, is a beautiful region in the Northeast of the Grand-Duchy. Beautiful woodlands and spectacular natural rock formations make out most of the Mullerthal. However, it's most well-known location is probably the picturesque Schiessentumpel, a small waterfall that flows under a charming bridge.

During this photography workshop we will visit some of the locations featured in the following videos:

Time and Duration

The workshop takes place in the morning and includes between 4 to 5 hours of on-location shooting.
Once you have a reserved a spot for the workshop, the exact time and meeting location will be communicated to you by e-mail about a week before the workshop.

Transportation

While we cannot offer you official transportation to the workshop locations since this would not be covered by our insurance, we do encourage car sharing. Once the workshop is fully booked and the date approaches, we put all workshop participants in contact with each other so that car sharing opportunities can be arranged.

Hiking

There is a fair amount of hiking planned in order to reach some of the most photogenic locations. This is why it is important that you wear comfortable shoes and dress according to the weather conditions.

Weather

The weather plays a very important role in creating great pictures and while we will do our very best to ensure that you go home with something to show for, we cannot guarantee that we will have the ideal conditions for the workshop. Sun, rain, snow or mist can all be interesting weather conditions for this workshop, so we will only postpone or cancel the workshop in case of extreme weather conditions. The main goal of this workshop is to teach you our techniques so that you can apply them in the future as well.

Language

While most of the workshop will be in English, we are also able to give some explanations in French, German and Spanish depending on the language skills of each participant.
