Day‑by‑day plan and meeting place

Day 1 — Nørrebro texture → city lakes 

Briefing at Torvehallerne (Nørreport Metro Station)
Meeting address: Frederiksborggade 21, 1362 København. Go to MAP
We lock in exposure/AF, a lightweight lens strategy, and safety/etiquette for festival nights for those who want to add the evening.

Work flow, layers and gestures on Copenhagen’s busiest bike route and favourite summer hang‑out bridge—clean silhouettes against water, benches, and railings on the sunny side.  Multicultural details across Red Square / Black Market / Green Park—a world‑objects park shaped by BIG + Superflex + Topotek1. Perfect for wide‑angle geometry and story fragments.

Exercises around Strøget side‑streets or canals to practise “work the scene” sequencing.

 

Day 2 — Harbour light: Nyhavn → Christianshavn → Refshaleøen

We meet at a Café named “Mormors”. Address:  Bredgade 45, 1260 Copenhagen.
Meeting address: Bredgade 45, 1260 København. Go to MAP

Nyhavn 
Pastel townhouses and historic ships; work reflections, leading lines and quiet moments along the canal.

Christianshavn canals & side streets
Bridges, bikes, and soft water light—layered people‑and‑place. Refshaleøen & Reffen street‑food market (lunch + candids)
Industrial backdrop, containers, and global food stalls; Reffen is Northern Europe’s largest street‑food market, typically open through the summer season. Great for low‑profile portrait sets and street action. Harbourfront / Amalienborg axis or Opera viewpoints.
Long tele for compressed silhouettes, or wide‑angle for scale; we close with a final on‑the‑street micro‑review.

If it’s Jazz Festival week: we’ll weave in open‑air sets (e.g., city squares, harbour pop‑ups) to work rhythm, hands, and crowd timing—your daily route includes a check of the official schedule/app.
