Seashores of Brittany

Photography Workshop Travel Tour

Seashores of Brittany

Let Brittany surprise you! Maybe you thought Brittany was all about Crepes and salt, but it's craggy coastline offers some of the most stunning shots a photographer could desire. Couple that with beautiful, ancient castles, and shimmering pink coastline, and a set of stones that rivals Stonehenge and you'd be mad not to visit this beautiful area.

Learn from a passionate professional

Our photographers are both passionate and knowledgeable about photography and the area. We take you to all the good spots and let you enjoy the journey along the way. We capture as many sunrises and sunsets as weather and the small group will allow, and after shooting, we return to the hotel for a couple post-editing tutorials.

Group size & Options

Not everyone runs at the same pace, and our tours are built to accommodate everyone. We keep group sizes small, so everyone will have some one on one time with the pro. We also will offer different options for everyone. Perhaps someone wants to work on astrophotography late at night, maybe someone else really wants sunrises. We try to be as flexible as possible, so you don't feel like you have to do everything, but you can still get as most out of the experience as you want.

Tour Price $2,400/person

Join us for a single supplement for $400. A single supplement is one full day of activities meeting in the town we will be in. It does not include room or board, but does include any transport during the day after your arrival in the town. We can help arrange your transport to the town for an additional price
