What our participants say about our recent photo tours?
We enjoyed the tour to Iceland so much that immediately signed up for the incoming tour to New Zealand with Inscape Photo Tours.
Martin and Jan are very professionals. They have the ability to teach at all levels with patience and encouragement.
I’m personally improving my photography techniques by capturing amazing images in some of the most incredible travel destinations under their direction.
We are also happy that we had the chance to meet nice people, especially on the New Zealand tour. We had fun and unforgettable memories that will stay with us forever!
I stumbled across Inscape Photo Tours on one of my many internet searches – and am I ever thrilled that I did! Right from the first contact by email with my initial enquiry, Martin was attentive and helpful answering all of my many questions. And my experience on the tour itself was no different. The tour was extremely well organised and ran absolutely smoothly. I have no doubt about how much work was put in behind the scenes by Martin and his team to make sure things went according to plan – and everything did – making the tour an absolute pleasure to be a part of.
Not only did I learn an enormous amount about landscape photography and editing techniques under Martin’s guidance – I had an absolute blast! (Made even better by the awesome group I was on tour with:-). I would have no hesitation recommending Inscape Photo Tours to both beginner and experienced photographers alike – and I for one will definitely book another tour with Inscape.
Thank you Inscape!
I am thankful that i was able to participate in your photo tour in Iceland. I was both a great learning experience and a chance for me to get out of my comfort zone. The student to teacher ratio was excellent! You and Jan were able to spend time with us, teaching, correcting, and sharing with us your expertise. I am glad that aside from the technical aspects which confuse me sometimes, you also taught us the value of the story behind the picture. I really appreciated that!
My sister and I joined Martin’s trip to the Lofoten Islands to photograph the northern lights. The entire trip was very well organized – lodging, transportation, and some meals taken care of just as described, and the accommodations were all very nice.
The locations we visited were amazing and we got beautiful photos, including photos of the aurora! We really appreciated Martin’s local knowledge that allowed us to find the best locations for shooting depending on light and weather. One thing that made this trip extra-special was the one-on-one post-processing that Martin provided to help us organize and edit the many photos we were taking. I came home from the trip with amazing photos and an improved understanding of how to work with lightroom and photoshop to get the most out of those photos. I also really appreciated the small group setting and the amount of communication that Martin provided. We always knew what the plan was and what factors might cause us to re-evaluate the plan, such as weather. The whole group was able to provide input on what kind of photos we wanted to take and what techniques we were interested in learning about.
Overall an incredible trip and a great opportunity to improve my photography skills!
What an incredible tour! I was able to get the most iconic shots I’ve been after for years. Each day was extremely well organized so that we were able to best make use of the light and location. Even when the weather wasn’t cooperating, there were contingency plans on what best to shoot so that no time was ever wasted.
Martin and Jan’s expertise and friendliness was over the top. Their unique ability to provide individual instruction on both composition and editing to photographers of various levels of experience was amazing. I’m thrilled having finished this photo tour with dozens of pictures I’m proud to hang on the wall and can’t wait to sign up for the next trip!
Thanks Inscape!!!
This was already my 3rd workshop with Inscape Photo Tours. Everyone of these trips are extremely well planned. Martin and Pedro made sure that everyone on this trip had a great experience. The group of photographers was very diverse and we all had a fantastic time. I am already looking forward to my next trip with them in the future.
I was a bit nervous regarding the extent of the physical and extreme environmental challenges of photography in Iceland at this time of year. However, Martin’s planning and attention to the details of the itinerary ensured a very enjoyable trip. Each and every day was fun and filled with learning regardless of what the weather dished out. Both Martin and Jan were committed to making sure everyone came away with great photos and the knowledge to continue in their photography journey. If we weren’t outdoors on a shooting adventure, we were indoors learning how to post process our photos to their greatest potential. Regardless of the level of ability, experience or camera equipment, everyone was equally inspired and encouraged by both Martin and Jan with genuine enthusiasm for our learning. I will treasure the memories of this adventure!
This was my first photo tour with Inscape tours and it won’t be my last. Everything was very organized. As traveling photographers, we didn’t have to think about anything but our camera gear. We had two guides (Martin, the owner) and Jan. Both were wonderful and always willing to help with any photography advice. On a couple of days, we had some local models which we got to photograph in various locations. We also received candid feedback during post-processing which is always helpful.
Martin had all the details worked out ahead of time and was quick to resolve any issues were encountered. Our tour was made up of solo travelers. We had a small group and everyone got along. Looking forward to joining about photo tour in the future!
“Attending the workshop in Iceland 2017 with Inscape Photo Tours was one of the most unforgettable experiences of my life. Jan and Martin are not only excellent photographers, but also great friends. They do much more than teaching you the techniques and art of photography. They know how to inspire and motivate the attendants. More than a group, it became a supportive team. I had lots of fun and I´ll never forget it.”
A once in a lifetime experience to the Lofoten Islands in Norway! Martin and the team at Inscape again delivered an awesome workshop. Despite bad weather, we had many opportunities to take incredible pictures worthy of any portfolio. Martin and Pedro’s advice on composition, use of light and post-processing were indispensable.
I’ve never been on a workshop where the guides don’t sleep, but are constantly checking weather and aurora conditions to ensure we get the best possible shots! The tour was filled with fun, laughs and great company. I am already planning my next trip with them!
Inscape Photo Tours provided one fantastic trip. Jan and Martin took us to the beauty of Iceland and we spent twelve days with ourselves and our camera shutter’s being busy catching the world thru their eyes. No matter what your experience level or equipment that you brought, they could both help you. Trip more than met my expectations. Personally, before this trip I primarily took pictures of birds and wildlife. Taking pictures of landscape and understanding Martin and Jan’s desire to create composition in your picture was ‘eye opening’ for me. I’m truly glad I went on this trip. At the age of 72 I was able to keep up with the ‘group’ and they pushed us to have as many experiences with our camera as possible. My time with my camera will be better, in the future, because of what I learned and experienced with Inscape during this trip.
Since my last trip with Martin and his crew at Inscape Photo Tours, and the wonderful people I was able to meet in Iceland. I was eager to make another one and it was on… Lofoten 2020 Wow such a blast having to meet all the same people and have one of my best time in my life with such a rich country with beautiful landscapes and vistas.
To me Inscape Photo Tours is not only about the actual photo tour and be able to be in front of outstanding landscape, it is about meeting with great people exchange knowledge and most importantly make friends with whom to spend more good times like this. Thank you all for the great time and experience, stay safe and well, for till our next photo tour <3
This Photo Tour with Martin was absolutely great! We did this in autumn, the colors of the fields and the woods were stunning. Under Martin’s guidance, I took incredible photographs, I never thought I would ever be able to shoot such beautiful pictures. Not only the autumn colors, the beautiful sights in Prague, Telc, and Cesky Krumlov, and Martin’s insightful photography advice made the tour a great success for me. A highlight was the (photographic of course) shooting of owls, a new experience, that also resulted in beautiful images.
Everything was very well organized, we stayed in excellent lodgings, and even had the occasion to taste Czech wines (which were excellent). Martin is an incredibly nice person, very patient and always in a good mood. I hope to join him on a photo tour again in the future. Thanks, Martin!
This trip was fantastic thanks to Martin’s great planning and enthusiasm. Every detail was well executed from the lodging to the photography locations. I did not know any of the participants beforehand other than Martin. The group was diverse, engaging and alot of fun. Everyone was willing to share their knowledge and enthusiasm for getting some great shots. Even when weather did not cooperate, there were plans for expanding our photo processing skills at every level.
I would not hesitate to book another amazing tour with Inscape Photo Tours. Hopefully, soon.
“I had a wonderful experience of joining Martin and Jan on a recent Iceland photography tour. The entire tour was well planned, good accommodations, safe transportation and spacious cars for 2 small groups. Jan and Martin provided knowledgeable in photography as well as the locations for the best ways to get amazing shots. It was a pleasant, fun, a lot of memories photo trip, I enjoyed every moment!”
It was a photography trip for the history books! Each day was filled with portfolio worthy images, a perfect combination of destination, subject, lighting and composition. Martin and Jan provided amazing guidance both at location and in post-editing to help me take the best images ever. The trip was filled with adventure, laughs and thrills. The memories and friendships our entire group made will last a lifetime. I’m looking forward to many more photographic adventures with Inscape Photo!
I cannot recommend Inscape Photo Tours more highly. I met Martin after doing a morning photography class in Prague and was so impressed with him that I decided to come on one of his multi-day package trips. I am so glad that I did! My sister, who is a much better photographer than me, met me in Norway and we visited the Lofoten Islands, which were incredibly beautiful. We met up with the rest of our small group and our two guides and quickly formed some new friendships. Everything was organized for us so we really didn’t need to think much, which was great! All of our accommodation was really nice and also within proximity of insane views.
At first, I thought I wouldn’t be taking great photos because I am such an amateur, but with the help of Martin and our other guide Pedro I got the MOST AMAZING PICTURES! I can’t even believe I took them!
Turns out when you have professionals teaching you how to take and edit photos, as well as chauffeuring you around to the best spots during the right times for the best light, you too can be an amazing photographer.
I learned so much and had a fabulous time. I will definitely be doing another trip with this company in the future. This was a once in a lifetime experience, and I am so thankful.
The October Czech Republic photo tour was a fantastic experience from start to finish. Martin is an exceptional photographer and understands how to communicate his skills in an easy-going and gentle way. He also makes sure to take care of the needs of his clients, ranging from airport/train station transportation to choosing comfortable and clean accommodations. During our photo shoots, Martin made sure to give each participant guidance and help with any questions regarding camera use or settings. He is also exacting on composition and emphasized how even very small changes to composition can improve an image significantly. Within Prague, Martin took us to locations where we could get both iconic shots and lesser known but excellent and interesting photos as well. As we ventured to other locations, we were given opportunities to shoot unusual and scenic landscapes, beautiful small towns, a castle with its lovely grounds, and owls and birds of prey. Martin encouraged us to use lines and curves within a scene as elements of composition and stressed the power of simplicity. The opportunity to photograph owls and a falcon was simply amazing and was my favorite part of the tour.
For the post-processing sessions, Martin preferred to work with each of us one-on-one. This approach allowed for personalized instruction and editing of a selection of each client’s photos. Other group members were welcome to observe.
On the Czech Republic tour, there is a maximum of five clients, which keeps the group small and allows each of us time with Martin. Our group consisted of people from four continents and it was a joy to get to know each of them. We all traveled well together, enjoyed sharing photos, and had interesting and fun discussions. I would highly recommend Inscape Photo Tours. Martin’s dedication to each photographer’s positive experience is evident. His primary intention is for photographers to be provided with the opportunity and guidance that will result in excellent photographs. It was a real pleasure to have such a conscientious and personable guide. Thank you for the exceptional experience!
The Lofted Photo Tour was not on my ‘bucket list’, but having gone I would recommend ALL make this trip sometime with Martin. At 74 years of age, I was the oldest on the trip. I joined my brother and sister-in-law and left with more photograph memories than I could imagine. From the minute we got to Norway, our trip began with building a memory…..one day at a time. Martin and Pedro had photography planned before we got to our hotel room. They monitored the weather and times to view the Northern Lights. We were told from beginning to the end of the tour, what to bring for warm clothing, weather, lens, shoes, jacket, etc.. If the weather changed, we changed with it to do post-processing or learn ways to improve our picture taking.
Many years ago I made up my mind to ‘find people doing and going where I want to go in life and grow old with them’. This was my third trip with Inscape and I can hardly wait for the next. You don’t need a large group to have a BIG memory. Martin keeps the size of the group at a size that you feel that you are treated personally with all your questions and desire to learn.
I have booked 2 photo tours with Inscape Photo Tours, the first was the trip to Iceland and the 2nd one was to New Zealand. Both tours were extremely well organized. Both Martin and Jan are excellent in assisting the clients.
I had a fantastic time on both tours and can only recommend taking part in these tours. I am already preparing for the next on in Lofoten!
