Have camera, will travel: 50 Awesome Photo Workshops Around the World
Image courtesy of Norman B. Leventhal Map Center at the BPL
You could go alone to New Zealand, Mexico, Cuba, or wherever your wanderlust takes you, and bring your camera along for the trip – hope to stumble upon the ‘photographic’ spots, and take some pictures you think might be good.
Or, you could sign up for an amazing, fully immersive photography workshop in an exotic locale with a pro photographer who knows the land, guides you to all the best spots, gives you feedback during critiques, and helps you edit your new travel portfolio along the way. We prefer the latter – and after finding out about all the amazing photography courses happening all over the world this year, we had to share. Wherever and whatever your heart desires to go and photograph, there’s probably a workshop to guide you through it.
Here’s a list of just some of the photography classes happening around the world in 2014. So throw a dart on a map, and follow your arrow wherever it points.
Have a workshop to add to the list? Leave them in the comments below!
Major Workshops
Santa Fe Workshops: Widely known for their portfolio reviews and big names teaching various classes both in New Mexico and around the world, The Santa Fe Workshops are an amazing experience. Here’s some highlights for this year:

Mangelsen, and Art Wolfe–are teaming up to present a series of unique weekend events that will change the way you look at photography and what you can do with your own camera.
Within The Frame Workshops: These workshops pride themselves on going slow, lingering, experiencing, absorbing, savoring, and taking the time necessary to wait for the excitement of the new and exotic to blend with an understanding and appreciation of the surroundings in order to find one’s vision. Here’s some highlights for the upcoming year lead by Jeffrey Chapman:

By the way Sarah, glad you included National Geographic Expeditions photo offerings. It is also worth noting that every cruise of the National Geographic Explorer has a National Geographic photographer on board, aiding guests in their photography, leading shore trips, and giving lectures. Usually this means that the 15 or 20 real photo enthusiasts amongst the 150 guests get significant face time and input from a working National Geographic photographer, while traveling to really great destinations. For instance, I was on two of the Antarctica trips last year, and will be doing the British and Irish Isles trip again this year. It’s a really good photographic opportunity all the way around.

@Photoshelter / Sarah Jacobs, what criteria narrowed down your selection? With thousands of workshop each year, I’d like to understand your compilation/screening process to generate this list. Thank you!
Hi Carla,
Thanks for asking!
This list is a combination of our own research, as well as workshops being taught by the PhotoShelter community. These are the workshops that stood out to us, and is by no means a comprehensive list. We aimed to compile a group of diverse and exciting workshops taught by talented photographers, and includes a broad selection in terms of price range, and length of the courses.
Sarah

I can’t believe you missed out Gulf Photo Plus in Dubai. It is one of the best things to happen to photo workshops and education – they have a great lineup and it is an informal and excellent atmosphere. I have been thre in 2012 and I can’t wait to go again.
I attended WPPI and some workshops in Europe, but Dubai GPP is a class on its own.

I’m not going to add to the spam parade, but it is too bad that there isn’t an Alaska trip that makes the list. 🙂

Hi Guys and Gals.
I’m been doing my Workshops since 1998. This year we go to Brazil, Crete, Lesvos, Istanbul and Zanzibar.

Hope to meet you this year !

Photography workshops in Provence, France and now also in Lazio, Italy . There is still space available May through to October…Check http://www.rawdigital.net .

I’m leading a workshop in Ecuador this year, focusing mostly on birds. Our target species will include toucans, woodcreepers, and antpittas in the rainforest; tanagers, barbets, and oropendolas in the cloud forests; condors, caracaras, and ibis in the paramo; and an amazing variety of hummingbirds at almost every location. We will also visit the historic city of Quito and the Otavalo Indian market, which will give us an introduction to Ecuadorian culture and provide a variety of photo opportunities.

I can never find any food photography workshops….
Hi Felicia,
If you’re based in NYC or Münster, keep your eye out for Liz & Jewels Food Styling and Photography workshops. They are great! They also do one-on-ones. http://www.lizandjewels.com/workshops/
Thanks!!
I’ve been teaching photography in Paris since 2005, check out my photo workshop page, above…
Hi Sarah, Good list indeed….a nice service to provide. I know it cannot possibly be all-inclusive, but I thought that there are two extremes in which people might be interested.
First, Maine Media Workshops & College in Rockport, Maine, is the oldest, biggest and many would say the best of all of this country’s hundreds of workshops. Check out their offerings!
The other extreme can be found at http://www.ralstongallery.com/page1 ….yep, my own workshop/adventure/cruise. It’s meant to be the smallest, best and most individualistic workshop around and it’s all about seeing the coast of Maine as intimately as is possible, on my boat. Although we are already sold out for this year, some of your readers might like the idea. cheers, Peter Ralston
Very disappointing not to see any of NPPA’s long-standing and highly-regarded training programs included in your list – especially Northern Short Course (https://nppa.org/training/northern-short-course), Advanced Storytelling (https://nppa.org/training/advanced-storytelling-workshop) and Multimedia Immersion (https://nppa.org/training/multimedia-immersion). Those that have attended likely would tell you that they stack up, or are superior, to any on your list.
Photo Workshop Adventures offers over 60 adventures in more than 35 countries around the world.

Surf Photography in Bali, Indonesia with Art Brewer
http://artsabroad.sva.edu/action-surf-photography-destination-bali/
you do not have to be an SVA student to attend…
I agree with others here that it’s not possible to include everyone in this list, but including Maine Media Workshops, and Santa Fe Photographic, is indeed a ‘must’. I also teach photography workshops throughout the USA and internationally, and lead instructional photography tours to great locations in the world. Check out http://www.brendatharp.com/workshop-calendar/ for more information.
Canada has an abundance of very photogenic locations to photography. I went through your list, and it was awesome. We run a variety of workshops that focus on my native land, Canada. You can see http://northof49photography.com/photo-workshops for all the Canadian Workshops that we offer.
Yes of course camera can travel all over the world and can click the best and fine collection of pictures all over the world and can make a workshop too. Really camera is only a way to restore the golden memories of life forever in which photography plays a vital role.
Hi all,
We have been helping guests capture stunning images of New Zealand, and have a lot of fun at the same time, on our photo expeditions and workshops since 2005. As a dedicated landscape photographer and native of the Sourh Island I know exactly where to be when in all seasons. Our trips are a maximum of 6 photographers and we explore by 4WD which gives us access to remote backcountry locations. Take your photography to the next level in one of the most visually exciting “classrooms” on the planet. Please visit our website for more info http://capturenewzealand.co.nz

I’m coming to this discussion late, but wanted to chime in. I was disappointed to see that so many of the comments are from people who run photography trips and wanted to be included, as opposed to actual recommendations from people who took a photography tour and wanted to comment on it. In any case, I wanted to add these recommendations: (1) I signed up for a Santa Fe Photo Workshops trip to Cuba in 2012 and thought it was terrific. Reid Callanan was the instructor for our particular subgroup and was wonderful; other SFPW instructors who were there included Eddie Soloway, Kip Brundage (sp.?), Dustin Sammon, and Jennifer Spelman, and I heard good things from other participants as well. (2) In 2012 I also took part in a Joseph Van Os photo safari to San Miguel de Allende and thought it was very well done also. Instructors were Terry and Julie Eggers. Van Os has a pretty extensive roster of photo trips and I hope to go on another of theirs sometime.
I also offer a variety of photo workshops and tours in Japan, both group and private tours for families. Most of the tours offer a little bit of landscapes, portraiture and culture. Next group tour is this fall: http://www.japanphotoguide.com/event/2014-fall-japan-photography-tour/ but there will also be something for cherry blossom season next year as well. Thanks!
I cannot believe you missed me 😉 Now Swaledale in Yorkshire is not the biggest place in the world, nor has ice floes of iceland, nor even northern lights but it has the best Dale in Yorkshire, a gem of stone barns, meadows, and waterfalls plus no mobile reception and the best, it is quiet http://www.fotodayz.co.uk
Based in Idaho, I teach workshops in Idaho, the Pacific Northwest, and abroad. My workshops emphasize curiosity, exploration, experimentation.

Hi guys,
I’m attending UExpo scheduled from June 27th through June 29th and Festival of Ballooning scheduled from July 25th through July 27th. Both the events are organised by the Unique University.
What I’m looking for and simply cannot find is workshops/tours in the US not for nature but in cities.
Mitch, I run a one-on-one workshop in Seattle, a very photogenic town. You may see more information about it by clicking on the Workshops link on my website : http://www.photo21.org/ .

Hi Sarah I am surprised that you didn’t include this workshop in your list. About 8 years ago I went to Cuba with this talented photographer Manuello Paganelli when I saw on of his shows in the East Coast ( I think he lives in California). You can check his amazing street and travel photography style in the link below.
He has been working for well known magazines for many years and has been traveling for more than 25 yrs. Long before must photographers or tourist were traveling there. He probably knows Cuba better than most foreigners.
Our group was small, maybe 10 students and it was very educational and lots of fun hanging out with Manu and the great Cuban people.
The class was in English and he also worked with a local Cuban photographer. There was also a pretty young Cuban woman as guide/translator.

The itinerary sounds like a dream come true for me (I love photographing nature)!

The deadline to sign up is March 1st though, so really soon, fingers crossed!
If you are ever in NYC one of my favorite workshops was with https://newyorkcityphotosafari.com . It was really short, just 3 hours. But packed full of information. The shooter who led the group was actually president of APA. I really didn’t think I would get that much out of the session but it was terrific.
I’m still getting regular visitors to my workshop website from this article. For 2017, there are still a few spots left in my workshops (mentioned in the article above) for late May in Sicily and mid-June in Tuscany. See http://www.photographitaly.com for more details.
Hi!
I’m reading this in 2017, but just wanted to add I’m running gorgeous, slowly unfolding photography workshops in Jaipur, india in 2018. Small but perfectly formed, and huge amounts of fun. India is fantastic for photography and Jaipur is a gem. http://Www.aliwarnerphotography.com and hit the about page for more info.

Hi Sarah, there is also an awesome photographer name’s Don Mammoser. He is a passionate professional photographer with a gift of sharing photography skills in landscape, wildlife, and travel. I went to their workshop last September and found it was an amazing trip of a life.
