We'll dive deep into Benin's vibrant cultural mosaic,
Descending to the Ouémé Valley, we'll be privileged to witness the Holli people's sacred scarification ceremonies. Our lenses will focus on intimate portraits, each image revealing the weight of history and identity etched into our subjects' skin.
The sacred forest of Ouidah will be our next stop. We'll tread softly among ancient trees, our cameras drawn to the mystical Vodun statues and shrines. In Bohicon's bustling streets, we'll find ourselves swept up in the energy of a Gelede masquerade. As masked dancers whirl past, we'll instinctively adjust our settings to freeze the motion, preserving the Fon people's joyous celebration in vivid detail.

Incredible destinations, great locations within the destinations, interesting subjects and places, the best photographic support and a positive day to day atmosphere. All this together with nice lodging and food. Most of our trips are Photo Tours, and a few Workshops. On a photo tour we spend about 80%of our photo time taking photos, and about 20% on analyzing them and honing our vision.
Far less academic than a photography workshop, these trips take place in remote areas that are beautiful and certainly intense, and you start in hands on from the get-go. A professional photographers will give you advice on the technical aspects of photography as needed, but above all, about the environment of the shooting: the way to approach the subject, the preparation, the equipment. Spontaneous lessons will alternate between set photo sessions,, analysis of photographic techniques and photo reviewing.

Unlike other tours, our trips offer depth through personal interactions with people that are many times difficult to access or to be introduced to.
The rhythm of each day balances structure with freedom. We plan photo sessions, typically lasting between thirty minutes to an hour and a half, punctuating the itinerary without overwhelming it. This approach prevents excessive fatigue and leaves room for you to do your own thing or work on personal projects.
