4 Days Photography Tour in Stockholm's Archipelago (June 2025)
Description
Just outside of Stockholm you are stepping into a world of serene nature, seemingly untouched by civilization - a cluster of more than 30.000 islands that create an incredible scenery and together compose the one of the largest archipelagoes in the world. Each single of those islands with its own unique charm, it's own story to tell!
Join me on this unforgettable photography adventure that will take you to to some of the most scenic islands in Stockholm’s Archipelago - dramatic coastlines, charming villages and magnificent lighthouses are waiting to be captured in stunning images!
For four days (incl. three nights), we will explore and photograph spectacular islands like Landsort (Öja) and Nåttarö in the southern archipelago. These islands have everything that you can dream of as photographer - from rugged coastlines and dramatic seascapes, to mystical forests and picturesque fishing villages. In a small group of photography enthusiasts, we will visit the best photo locations on the islands and you will learn how to create outstanding photos. I am sure you will be astonished and inspired by the scenic beauty of these places!
We will take advantage of the most beautiful light and mainly photograph in the mornings and in the evenings. During the day, we have time to edit our photos and I will show you how to get the most out of them in just a few steps.
Together we will improve your photography skills and you will be able to create your own stories through photos that speak for themselves. I make sure that you will have an unforgettable photography experience and go home with the feeling to have learned something new!
