Travel Photography: Cemoro Lawang and Mt. Bromo

Shoot stunning landscapes and explore local culture through this travel photography workshop. 4 days of shooting and post processing, S$1200 (see discount, course outline or sign up now)

Shoot the Milky Way in its full glory on this workshop.

Learn to Handle the Tricky Light at Sunrise

With a group this small its hard to miss a shot or be lost for settings and compositional decisions!

We are big on small groups. Ensuring everyone has space to shoot and access to the instructor is top priority on all our overseas workshops. We’ll bring you to the right location at the right time and with the right equipment. The morning light changes quickly and there is nothing worse than getting worked up about what settings to put in your camera or how to frame the shot with the instructor far away from earshot. This workshop takes a max of just 6 participants! 

Mingle with the Locals

Interact with the local horsemen and photograph them with the iconic mountains in the background!.

While Bromo is more well known for its awesome landscape, the people in this land are like none other in Java and have a unique culture. You will interact with horsemen, farmers and other people making a living in this mountainous land. While shooting landscapes can be fun, it’s always great to add a couple of photos documenting the culture and lifestyles of the local people. 

Shoot under the instructor’s guidance

The instructor covers post processing right from importing the photos in to the computer to developing and exporting then for print and web.

Not just for outdoor shoots, but also for post processing and organising the picture library, the instructor is at your service throughout the workshop and at no point will you feel left out or neglected.

Our instructors are down to earth and ready to rough it out to ensure you get the best travel experience. Feel free to pick their brains after the shoots, during meals and drinks. Or just do your own thing, its a free world here! There is no consultation hours or office hours. We’re yours, throughout the trip! 

Most importantly, have lots of fun!

Nothing like an epic selfie with a belching volcano in the background!

We’ve had entire groups going on the trip for the first time as strangers, only to return as friends and go on to travel together for subsequent overseas workshops! With similar mindsets and simple goals (i.e. great photos!)you’ll form a bond that will see you joining hands again for future trips and workshops. We do the meticulous planning and organising, you just turn up, have fun and go back with awesome photos!
