About the workshop

I bring the fantastic Darina Litvinova back to Frankfurt! This time in the new studio! She is always great to work with. She bring emotions, energy and passion to the shoot. I also think she has a great taste and a great sense of style so be prepared for some awesome styling!

On this workshop we will shoot natural light. This will give you a lot of photos you will walk away with from the day. On this workshop we will shoot mostly lingerie and nude. The best thing with working with natural light is that it is faster and easier to make changes and it is also easier to get a lot of variety in your photos.

Everything I will teach you at the workshop are my original ideas that have been tested over years of hard work as there are no short cuts in photography! Only five participants each day will result in much individual quality shooting time. Expand your portfolio with beautiful images of the amazing Dasha! The workshop will be in English and the model also speaks English.

Individual coaching

This is available on Friday February 6th. There are two slots available, 10.00-13.00 and 14.00-17.00. An individual coaching is tailored for your needs and it includes a lot more shooing time than a workshop. Great opportunity to get more deep knowledge and to make sure you get a lot of great photos of an amazing model with my guidance!

Some of the main topics

- How to achieve good colors and especially great skin tones
- The foundation of good and beautiful light
- How to change and manipulate natural light
- Knowing your limitations and advantages and work with them
- Shaping the model with the light
- Speed up your workflow
- Metering and exposure
- Getting it right in camera
- Posing and angles
- Interaction with models

Knowledge and equipment

To participate there is no special knowledge or skill level needed other than knowing about the basic camera settings such as iso, aperture, shutter speed, white balance etc. My way of working and explaining is very easy to understand. I can promise great results even if you have nerver worked a model before.
In terms of equipment it is not that much needed. I recommend 50mm or 85mm or 24-70mm or 70-200mm or similar lenses. Ideally you should have a lens with a focal length between 50mm and less than 100mm. Since we will shoot natural light it is an advantage to have a prime lens with a large maximum aperture or a zoom lens with 2.8 aperture.

Location

The workshop will take place in a studio in Frankfurt city. It’s easy to get to the studio by car or by public transport. The exact address will be provided shortly after booking. The Frankfurt airport is very well connected and it is easy to fly there from many cities around Europe.

About the event

My Bali events are really going well so I have decided to make another one on March 20th to 24th. Day one will be for check-in and introductions. The next three days are dedicated to shooting, with the fifth day for check-out. On the event there will be three absolutely fantastic models and they are all listed together with photos below. Only six photographers will join to keep the event personal and maximize shooting time. We will stay together in villas, which will also be our shooting locations. Each photographer will have a private room. We'll visit at least one beach location daily and have villa shoots.

Most of us will arrive a few days early to adjust to the time difference and rest after a long flight. I recommend this for everyone because it can be tough to come from Europe, for example, and go straight to the shoot. I have gathered some information about how to make the arrival in Bali easier and things that can be good to know. I will send out these details along with all the necessary information once participation is confirmed.

Feel free to contact me if you have any questions regarding the events.

Our first model is the amazing Dasha! She was one of the models on my event in March 2025 but she was the replacement model. I have worked with her before and she is always good. But this time in Bali she really shined so I decided to bring her again for this new event. The photos below was shot by me during the event in March this year.

When I was in Bali in March this year I met Liza. We shot together a couple of times in Bali and we also had some shoots after that. She is really great to work with and her movement and posing is top level. Most of the photos below were shot by me in Bali. Her unique look and red hair will bring some extra flavour to the model line up!

Last but not least we have the amazing Sonya! She is one of my favourite models to work and finally I can bring her to Bali. I wanted to have her on my other events but it didn’t work out those times and now we have finally confirmed! At the moment she is exclusive to my events only so keep that in mind.

Location

We will stay in the south of the island. I like this area because it is less crowded and the beaches are much nicer. This is more suitable for photography. Below, you can see some photos of the villa location to get an idea of what we can create there. It is a beautiful place with a lot of light, making it a perfect location! It is also a very comfortable and pleasant stay, which I think is important.

Inspiration

Almost all photos of the models for the event were shot in Bali so they can serve as inspiration. To give you some more ideas of what you can create I have listed some of my photos from previous travels to Bali. These are just examples and I’m pretty sure we will all get amazing content from this trip!

Knowledge and equipment

To participate, no special knowledge or skill level is required; however, you must be able to shoot independently most of the time. While I'll be there to help and provide advice as needed, it's essential for you to operate without continual assistance. When it comes to equipment, you don't need much. I suggest lenses of 50mm, 85mm, 24-70mm, 70-200mm, or similar. Ideally, your lens should have a focal length between 50mm and less than 100mm. As we'll be shooting in natural light, it's beneficial to have a prime lens with a large maximum aperture or a zoom lens with a 2.8 aperture. It is also a good idea to only bring the essentials since carrying a heavy bag when walking to the beaches can be hard, especially in the hot weather so keep that in mind. Feel free to ask me for advice.

When: March 20-24
Where: Bali, Indonesia
Participants: Max 6 photographers
Price and what is included: €2800 including accommodation, 4 nights in our luxury villas. You will get your own room. First to book first to choose. Visits to restaurants are not included. It is possible to split the payment so you won’t need to pay all at once. Contact me for more info about this!

About the event

The first photo event in Dongen in 2026. These are always popular so I continue to organise them and bring great models. This time is no exception! The first model out is the amazing Nici. We worked together many times. This might be the last chance to shoot her since she is about to stop modelling. Don’t miss this chance! Our second model is the great Sasha. We worked together once last year. She is professional, good with posing and pleasant to work with. Last but not least we have Karina. She is funny, energetic and always brings a good mood to the shoot!

This is a photo event, not a regular workshop, so the emphasis will be on shooting time. Participants will be grouped into pairs, each with a model. We will rotate the groups, ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to shoot with each model, which guarantees a lot of shooting time.

My role is to provide assistance, share innovative concepts, and ignite your creativity. My aim is to ensure you leave with extraordinary, one-of-a-kind photographs of our trio of exquisite, professional models. This unique setting further enhances the visual appeal and distinctiveness of your captures. Let's transform your vision into reality together!

The location

The highlight of this event, apart from the models, is the amazing location. Our expansive studio features several rooms, each with its distinct style. Additionally, there's a large "factory" section providing a rugged backdrop for our shoots. Take a look at the photos below.

Knowledge and equipment

To participate, no special knowledge or skill level is required; however, you must be able to shoot independently at all times. While I'll be there to help and provide advice as needed, it's essential for you to operate without continual assistance. When it comes to equipment, you don't need much. I suggest lenses of 50mm, 85mm, 24-70mm, 70-200mm, or similar. Ideally, your lens should have a focal length between 50mm and less than 100mm. As we'll be shooting in natural light, it's beneficial to have a prime lens with a large maximum aperture or a zoom lens with a 2.8 aperture.

Where and how to get there

The location is situated in a place called Dongen, near the Belgium border and not too far from Germany. For instance, it's less than a 2.5-hour drive from Cologne. If you're flying in, you can land in Amsterdam, Rotterdam, or Eindhoven, and cover the remaining distance by train. From Amsterdam and Rotterdam, the train to Breda is available. From Eindhoven, you can journey to Tilburg. Additionally, there are several hotels I can recommend for anyone planning to stay overnight and participate on both days. Don't hesitate to ask if you need any information regarding travel possibilities.

When: May 8-10
Where: Dongen, Netherlands
Time: 11.00-18.00
Participants: Up to 6 each day
Price: €699 each day

About the event

Due to a lot of requests I have decided to organise a big event in Europe! In the end of May I organise a 3-day photo event in South of France, set in a private historic stone house just outside of Nice.

The location is intentionally discreet — a characterful Provençal property on the road leading up to Saint-Paul-de-Vence, surrounded by texture, light, and the quiet rhythm of the Mediterranean. Old stone walls, terraces, shaded interiors, and open views create a setting that feels lived-in rather than staged.

It will be a small group of 6 photographers and 3 carefully chosen models. Shared meals, long conversations, and evenings over a glass of wine are as much part of the experience as the photography itself. This is an event away from studios and hotels — closer to a temporary life than an event. Following the spirit of my previous events, this edition remains intimate, collaborative, and experience-led — shaped by place, people, and time rather than production.

We will all stay together at the property. Each photographer will get their own private room. Me and the models also stay there. All drinks and meals are included in as well as the accommodation.

Our first model is the amazing Liza. Her red hair, freckles and flawless body makes her a joy to shoot. She is also a very experienced model and her posing is fantastic! The majority of the photos below was shot at the location for the event in when we were there in October,

The second model is Dorka. We worked together on an event in Netherlands earlier this year. She is great with posing but she is also a very fun and pleasant person which is important on this kind of event.

Last but not least we have the amazing Laure. I also worked with a couple of times before. She is great with posing and she has the perfect mix between sensual and artistic! The only French model on this event!

Location

Here are a few shots of the property. As mentioned earlier all participants will get their own room at the property. The location is just 15 minutes away from the Nice airport and it’s very easy to get an Uber there.
