This photography workshop is suited to any fitness level as most spot are reachable within a few minutes walking. We will be driving around the Islands, and I will ensure that we will always be at the right place at the right time.

​

Day 1

We will meet at Tromso Airport at 12pm, before heading to Senja Islands. We will be crossing the relatively unknown Kvaloya Island to reach the ferry that will bring us to the Island. After about another hour driving, we will be reaching our first accommodation, where we will spend our three first nights. If time allows, we will be stopping along the road to capture amazing photographs.

At night, if the weather is clear, we might also have the chance to admire and photograph the auroras.

​

Day 2 to 4

During the first part of this Senja Island workshop 2024, we will start by exploring the northern part of the Island. There won't be a fix schedule from day 2 to day 4, as we will plan our days depending on the weather forecasts for the next day. Don't worry, even with poor weather conditions, the Island remains beautiful to photograph. In any case, we will ensure to visit all major view points and more during those days.

​

A typical day will start with breakfast at our accommodation and then go directly to our sunrise location. We might also take a breakfast to go in case we want to be on time on location for sunrise. 

​

The main location visited during these days will include Mefjordvaer, Husoy, the Devil's Teeth, and much more.

​

Day 4 to 6

The second part of the Senja photography workshop 2024 will be dedicated to exploring the southern part of Senja Island, where beautiful mountains, fjords and vast areas of snow will keep appearing in front of us.

​

As for the first 3 days, we will keep our schedule flexible and adapt to the weather. We will nonetheless ensure to visit the nicest areas of the island including Gryllefjord, Silfjord, Hamn, etc.

​

Day 7

After a last sunset on Senja Islands we will head back towards Tromsø and make stops along the road as we are crossing amazing locations (and trust me there will be!).

​

We will have diner in Tromsø, and depending on the weather, we will take a last chance to see the Auroras to one of the best view point close to Tromsø.

​

Day 8

This will mark the end of this Senja Island guided photography tour. After breakfast, the group will be brought to Tromsø Airport where it will be time to leave each other after a warm goodbye.

​

General information

We will generally have lunch on the go, prepared in the morning before leaving for sunrise.

​

A welcome dinner on the first or second evening, as well as a goodbye dinner on our last evening are included as part of the workshop. On the other evenings, we will have dinner at a local restaurant (prices vary from 250 NOK for a single main to 700 NOK for a three course menu).

The days will be punctuated by chasing the Auroras to top the overall experience.

​

During the week, a post treatment session and a group photo review will be held, as well as an individual photography coaching session for each participant to discuss any photography related topic each of the workshop participant wish to discuss.

​

On the best nights, auroras in Senja Island can last for hours, and stopping photographing them might be difficult, and we won't stop doing so as long the group gets tired of it (which is unlikely). However, this can render the workshop schedule difficult and exhausting, therefore participants will be free to rest whenever they feel the need for it.
