Workshop Program

We meet at the train station in Zug and then drive together to the location. After a short introduction on site about everything worth knowing about the landscape, the right settings for taking pictures of the sunset and the blue hour, we will move on to the practical part of the workshop.

You will take pictures in the gentle hilly landscape and have the opportunity to capture fantastic images of this unique region. We will use the different light conditions of the golden hour, the sunset and the blue hour to capture different moods.

This workshop is on private pasture land and will be held in consultation with the farmer who owns the land. The farmers also receive a contribution towards expenses.
