Madeira Photography Workshop

Madeira Workshop: Atlantic’s Hidden Jewel
For the fourth time, we’re returning to the enchanting island of Madeira on November 5-6, 2024. It is not a beach holiday. It is the island we keep going back to for the light.
Madeira, often called the “Pearl of the Atlantic,” offers a unique blend of dramatic landscapes. From the mist on Pico do Arieiro to the cliffs at Ponta de São Lourenço, there is more on this island than two days can cover.
Over five trips we have worked out where the good stuff is. This workshop will take you to locations that go far beyond the typical tourist spots, perfect for creating unforgettable wedding imagery.


What’s in Store
Over two action-packed days, from sunrise to sunset, you’ll capture Madeira’s diverse beauty as we traverse the island, ensuring an all-out experience.
You’ll work with two couples in wedding attire, photographing them against Madeira’s stunning backdrops. But this workshop goes beyond just taking pretty pictures. We’ll share insights on how to market these unique destination elopements and weddings, with the ultimate goal of helping you secure bookings to return with your own clients.



Is This for You?
If you’re looking to add a touch of the extraordinary to your portfolio, this workshop is for you. Madeira’s unique landscapes offer a fresh perspective that will set your work apart. Established and moving into destination work, or newer and after a push. Both get something out of it.
Our small group size ensures you’ll get personalised attention and plenty of hands-on experience. You’ll leave not just with stunning images, but with the skills to market and book adventurous destination weddings and elopements of your own.




Couples
Two couples are joining us in Madeira. Both pairs bring experience in front of the camera and share our excitement for the island’s stunning backdrop. Take a look below at our confirmed couples!
