About the workshop
Join Giedo van der Zwan for a unique mentorship workshop in Northern Portugal. With only two or three participants, this mentoring workshop is designed as a deeply personal journey—beyond technique and into vision, style, and artistic direction.Throughout the week, Giedo will guide you step by step in finding, developing, and refining your own photographic voice. Through daily reviews, one-on-one mentoring, and inspiring photo walks in different cities, you’ll gain clarity on your strengths, refine your style, and define the next steps in your creative journey.The workshop combines inspirational presentations with moments of quiet reflection. We will photograph together in charming old towns, vibrant cities, and the stunning rural settings of Northern Portugal. Walks in nature will provide time to reset and refocus, while evenings are dedicated to image reviews, discussions, and curated inspirations.This is not just another workshop—it’s a chance to work closely with Giedo in a small, dedicated setting where you’ll receive my full attention and guidance.Local transportation, accommodation and breakfast are included, allowing you to fully focus on your creative development.
This workshop includes accommodation and private transportation to all cities we will visit. You will stay in a luxury village 'Casa do Alpendre' situated in between the hills of the Minho vineyards of Quinte de Luou (see images), you will have a large room to yourself with beautiful views and you have a private bathroom. The villa is exclusively for ourselves. It offers plenty of personal space to practice, reflect and grow!From our villa, few make daily tours to the cities in the region, like Porto (1 hour drive), Braga (35 minutes), Guimaraes (40 minutes), Ponte de Lima (10 minutes), Barcelos (25 minutes), Viana de Castello (25 minutes), Vigo in Spain (45 minutes).
