Join me for two days of street photography in Copenhagen
— a city of clean lines, shifting light, quiet side streets, elegant architecture, and lively urban rhythm.
This small-group workshop is designed to help you see more clearly, work with light more intentionally, and build stronger photographs with greater confidence.
Simplify your gear. Strengthen your eye.
Two days of street photography in Copenhagen, working through Nørrebro, the harbour, Nyhavn, Christianshavn, and Refshaleøen.
Copenhagen has Nordic simplicity and the old parts of the town, offering many opportunities for different kinds of photography.

Join me for a small-group workshop in one of Scandinavia’s most rewarding summer cities for street photography. Copenhagen offers clean lines, open light, canals, bridges, bicycles, quiet side streets, and a lively urban rhythm that makes the city ideal for observation, timing, and strong visual storytelling.

This workshop is designed to help you see more clearly, simplifying gear choices and focusing more on the scenes.
Whether you are new to street photography or already experienced, the teaching is adapted to your level and goals.

Part of the workshop is dedicated to understanding your camera setup, lens choices, and how to work confidently with your gear in real-life situations. Then we focus on observation, timing, composition, and learning to recognise the moments and light that give a photograph life. We review and talk during the day, and all workshops are organic, so we adapt to the group’s needs.

Description

What you can expect

Over two structured days, we will work in the streets of Copenhagen with a balance of guided shooting, practical exercises, and personal feedback. The aim is not only to make strong photographs during the workshop, but to give you a clearer way of seeing that you can take with you afterwards. 

You will work on:

  • seeing and using light more deliberately
  • composition and simplification
  • timing and anticipation on the street
  • building confidence in public spaces
  • making stronger visual decisions with your own camera and lenses

Who it is for

This workshop is open to all levels. If you are new to street photography, you will get a stronger foundation and a clearer approach. If you are more experienced, the workshop will help refine your awareness, sharpen your editing choices in-camera, and challenge old habits.

Small group format

The workshop is held in a small group of 4–10 participants, which means there is time for individual guidance, conversation, and feedback throughout both days. Before the workshop, you will receive a short questionnaire so the teaching can be better tailored to your experience, interests, and goals. 

Location

We will work around Nyboder, Bredgade, and the inner city, while also taking side streets and quieter paths in search of light, atmosphere, and unexpected moments. Copenhagen offers both classic and contemporary surroundings, giving us a rich mix of visual possibilities across the two days.

Schedule

Typical workshop hours are 10:00–16:00, with the option to continue longer if the group wishes. The two days build on each other, so progress becomes visible and practical rather than abstract. 

Practical information

Participants arrange their own travel, accommodation, and meals. Relaxed coffee breaks during the day are included. Please come prepared for the weather, with charged batteries, empty memory cards, or fresh film. All camera brands and formats are welcome. 

Accommodation

Participants arrange their own accommodation. For the easiest start to each day, I recommend staying in the Bredgade, Frederiksstaden, Nyhavn, or Kongens Nytorv area, all of which are close to the workshop meeting point at Café Mormors, Bredgade 45, and well connected to the inner city.

If you would like to stay nearby, good options include Phoenix Copenhagen on Bredgade, Hotel Skt. Annæ near Nyhavn, and Wakeup Copenhagen, Borgergade, for a simpler, more budget-friendly stay. 

Airbnb can also be a very good choice if you prefer an apartment or a more independent stay in central Copenhagen

Meeting point

We meet at Café Mormors Bredgade 45, 1260 Copenhagen

Booking

After booking, you will receive a short questionnaire about your goals, camera, and lenses, along with practical information before the workshop and follow-up information afterwards. If you have questions, need help with the order, or prefer an invoice, you are welcome to get in touch by email. 

If you would like two focused days of street photography in one of Europe’s most rewarding capitals, I would be very happy to welcome you to Copenhagen. Reserve your place while spaces are still available.
