Photographic bootcamp in Spain with Anja Ekstrøm

Photographic Bootcamp in Spain! Yeah, it's good enough!

Anja Ekstrøm's photographic bootcamp in Spain

I have expanded my "photo shop" from the photography studio to also teach. Latest on the trunk: Photographic Bootcamp in Spain

But let's start by looking back….

As many of you know, I didn't have an easy start when I was new - the road to help from other photographers proved very difficult. THANK GOD there was a small crowd who saw ME - as a colleague and not a competitor, and helped me get started.

If you have been to one of my lectures, you also know: I SWEAR that I would never be so dismissive of new photographers, because the cold wall is not nice to bump into when you just want to continue with your passion for photography.

The teaching is quite new (only a year old) and really "came in from the right"

At the strong urging of Karsten at Port 5 photographers, who wanted to host my first workshop, I had to choose to make a…

At first I looked at him skeptically and said: “Are you COMPLETELY away from the window? I am anti-tech – what can I ever teach others??” Karsten calmly looked at me and said: "Well, it's not the technique you come for - you come to learn how to achieve YOUR results, no matter how technical or non-technical they may be. We want to learn how to make pictures the way you do - to get an insight into your creative brain from A-Z". I have to confess that it just stood still with me for a minute…. but Karsten moved something in me... a piece that had previously been misplaced, now fell into its EXACTLY right place and things clicked and ideas started to appear....

I had to do a 1-day beauty workshop for photographers! It was in my photo future cards!

Over the past 5-6 years, I have been asked to hold workshops, but have always declined. Why? because I didn't mean to have anything to offer... but Karsten just put some thoughts in place with me and I could suddenly see the light.

It actually made me really happy, because now I could "give back" as I so wanted: To share my knowledge with everyone who wants to participate in "my world" and I have held several 1-day workshops with great success.

MEEEEEEE…. the story doesn't stop here... no no….. it gets even wilder!!

My creative photo and entrepreneurial brain thinks EVEN bigger!. How can I create the ULTIMATE experience for photographers - new and pro?! With all the experience and knowledge that my 1-day workshop has given me, I now knew what the next step should be. After all, I experienced time and time again that my participants were SO inspired that several of them have actually continued down the path of passion afterwards. Some have even started a photography course! JUST HOW WILD IS THAT?? That, from ONE day of teaching with me, they have found their creative calling!! I am not only proud and honored…. I'm HUGE! proud and honored!!!!

In November 2022 it happened!…. The aforementioned “next step”…. I held my first 8-day photo bootcamp.... IN SPAIN!!!!

I had carefully planned a MEGA cool program for the participants: Beautiful locations, professional models, some Spanish highlights and much more. We stayed on the most beautiful property during the entire course, which in itself was mega delicious and photogenic - all in all: a week packed with building a STRONG photo portfolio for all the participants. Naturally, at the same time as they were taught along the way in the photography part itself.

Photographic Bootcamp in Spain – we get through things like:

  • Basic camera settings – Learn to shoot on “manual” and not “auto”
  • Location scouting
  • Styling the model (you don't always have a stylist on hand)
  • Instruct models to achieve desired vibe, poses and expressions
  • How you use the sun as a light source and know all the tools for this that can be used to get "the perfect shot"
  • Building the photographer's portfolio - with an exclusive and international twist
  • Entrepreneurship for better or for worse
  • Live photoshoots with professional models and 1:1 time with the model with your camera
  • Locations that you don't otherwise have access to at home
  • Scout "models" on the street and TALK to them and pitch the idea of a portrait (voluntary for both person and photographer)

much much more…. all the cool stuff! and everything that can start up the ability and desire to actually run it into a business.

On top of the hat is the network you never forget - it is truly an experience of a lifetime and the biggest investment in yourself and your photography.

So now I have my next one photographer bootcamp published and have also started selling the seats. Contact me directly if you would like to hear more details about this
