Land, Light & History: Andalucía

WORKSHOP OVERVIEW & PHILOSOPHY

Ever since I took a landscape photography road trip to the South of Spain and Andalusia, I knew it was a place I wanted to share with everyone. I fell in love with the entire region, from the quaint towns and rich history to the epic landscapes that stretch as far as the eye can see. This workshop offers a unique chance to experience and photograph some of Spain’s most captivating landscapes. Don’t miss this chance to explore and capture the natural and architectural wonders of Andalusia.

Andalusia, Untamed.

Andalusia is a photographer’s symphony—where mountains crescendo into jagged peaks, white villages cling to cliffs like fallen stars, and Moorish palaces whisper tales of lost kingdoms. This workshop immerses you in southern Spain’s most dramatic contrasts: the Sierra de Grazalema’s emerald valleys at dawn, Ronda’s Puente Nuevo bridge suspended between sky and gorge, and El Torcal’s Martian limestone labyrinths at golden hour. By day, we’ll chase light across landscapes that feel plucked from fantasy; by night (weather permitting), we’ll frame the Milky Way above olive groves in one of Europe’s darkest sky reserves.

Cities become living galleries here. In Granada, you’ll photograph the Alhambra’s intricate arches glowing against the Sierra Nevada’s snow. In Seville, Plaza de España’s tilework dances with midday reflections, while Triana’s alleyways pulse with flamenco energy. Every location offers dual lessons: how to master technical challenges (exposing for whitewashed walls in harsh light) and how to feel a place through your lens.

Advanced Skills & Vision

This is Andalusia untamed. Where every turn reveals a new dialogue between wild nature and human artistry—whether it’s a shepherd’s path in Grazalema or the geometric perfection of the Alcázar. Come ready to chase light that has inspired artists for centuries.
