Photography lapland week winter

Have you always wanted to capture the power of the husky, the dancing northern lights or breathtaking landscapes? This is your chance to do so alongside an experienced photographer! We have joined forces with an expert to create this unforgettable experience with the Photography lapland week.

What to expect?

This is a fully arranged week (Monday to Friday) for a small group (maximum 8 people), providing a great opportunity to learn and explore. The week offers a perfect mix of education, hands-on practice, and experiencing Lapland in diverse ways.

We will highlight three main subjects: Animals (dogsledding & reindeer), snowy landscapes, and northern lights. Each subject is paired with a guided tour, theoretical insights, and on-site assistance. It is, in our eyes, the perfect trip for anyone with an interest in nature, photography, and the spirit of Lapland.

  • Dining: Breakfast is served by the hotel. Lunches are provided during activities, both outdoors and inside traditional grill huts. Dinners are a mix of restaurant visits and meals prepared over an open fire.
  • Your Guide: Monica will be your personal guide for the entire week. She will lead the activities, prepare meals, share her local knowledge, and assist with any questions you may have.
  • Your Expert: A proffesional Photographer will join, with many years of experience and Lapland as his “backyard,” he will share his knowledge with you through both theory and practice.

For who is it?

It is for everyone with a big interest in photography, but you want to take it to the next level. The only thing we ask that you already know how to make picture, feel comfertable working your own camera, know the basics and have your own gear. Then this arranged week is something for you! A perfect mix to experience Lapland, meet new people with the same interest and grow your knowledge on photography.
