I went with Paulo on the Slovenia Workshop recently. Slovenia, especially in the Lake Bled region, is stunning and with Paulo's experience I was brough to great locations at the best times. Paulo has researched photographic locations and chooses one that suits the weather on the day. For example the photo of St Thomas church above the clouds took knowledge of the local conditions. Paulo is a great host and tutor and looks after guests very well.

I had the pleasure of attending a one-day private workshop with Paulo, and it was an outstanding experience. His deep knowledge of the area and expertise in landscape photography are truly impressive. Paulo is exceptionally friendly and patient, especially when guiding you through camera settings and new techniques. Not only did I come away with some fantastic images, but I also learned valuable skills that will enhance my future photography. It was a real pleasure meeting and learning from Paulo. If you’re traveling in Europe and have an interest in landscape photography, I highly recommend joining one of his workshops—you’ll come away with great photos, new techniques, and wonderful memories. •⁠ ⁠Brian S., Michigan, USA

Last week, I did a private Algarve workshop with Paulo trough the beautiful coastal landscapes. I had a great time and experience. Paulo is a good, wellprepared workshop leader! He knows a lot, easy going and is open to answer all the questions. I definitely learned a lot and I am motivated to make my own progress now. Thank you, Paulo!

We joined Paulo for an amazing photography tour of the Azores. Paulo had researched spots for both sunrise and sunset photography along with other stunning scenery on the island. This was a gift for my husband's birthday and it could not have been more perfect. The photography shots were incredible and the entire trip was handled very professionally. We will definitely book another photography tour with Paulo.

Testimonials

Landscape photography is not my favorite genre but I decided to do a workshop to force myself out of my comfort zone. Attracted by Paulo Silva's photographs, I signed up for the “Porto e Aveiro” workshop. I could hardly have made a better choice. The locations were perfect, alternating between the unavoidable and the lesser-known corners. Paulo, in addition to being a great photographer and an impeccable professional, was always available to help and stimulate us, and did not rest until all the elements of the group had taken “A” photograph in each spot. Landscape photography is still not the one that touches me the most, but when I do another workshop - and I will - it will be with Paulo again.

In the past 2 years I have been lucky to be able to do 2 photo workshops with Paulo, in Algarve and in Aveiro. Both tours were excellent. Paulo knows the area like the back of his hand, and also the suitable moments to be there to get the best possible images. On both occasions I returned home with a large number of good photos and I am very grateful to Paulo for making this possible. I hope to return to Portugal soon and visit a new area with him again.
