Lake Bohinj Photography Workshop

Bohinj Jezero (Bohinj Lake) in Slovenia:

The jewel of the Alpine region, Lake Bohinj is a photographer’s paradise. Spend a day beside this beautiful alpine lake and learn photography at the same time. Nestled in the heart of the Julian Alps and the Triglav National Park, the lake rarely fails to provide outstanding photographic opportunities.

The lake is situated in a dead end valley, surrounded by towering alpine mountains. No matter the weather, Bohinj’s moods nearly always deliver stunning images.

On this one day photography workshop we will shoot Lake Bohinj from afternoon to sundown and finish with a sunset and dusk shoot.

For the early risers, a morning workshop is also available, starting one hour before sunrise.

Any time of year is a great time to photograph Lake Bohinj, so a morning or evening workshop is available.

Excellent one-to-one photography workshop at Lake Bled, Slovenia. Not just covering the techniques but also thinking about image composition and the impact of clouds on the final result. Thoroughly enjoyable and made me rethink the way I take photographs. Thank you, Shaun

We spent 1.5 days with Ian covering Lake Bled, Lake Bohinj and the surrounding areas. Ian knows the area incredibly well and was able to take us to the right places at the right times for the right light and did a great job of dodging the bad weather! He was incredibly helpful and informative and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend one of his workshops.

In spring the daytime can be very warm, but the temperature can drop quite a bit when the sun goes down. Summers can be quite hot. You may also need a raincoat.
