The tour starts at the top of the hill, a drink is offered to the customer at the meeting point in order to get in touch. The first part of the visit is focused on the theory, after that you will experiment the knowledge with exercises.
The photographic technique: Exposure (manual or controlled for under-over exposure), ISO (sensitivity vs quality of image) , aperture/ƒ-stops (depth-of-field effect); shutter speed (motion vs still image); focal length; focus points; white balance and quality of light sources; fill-in-flash; low light photography techniques, and many other useful tips and advices (sweeping, panning, zooming, ...)
The Image construction: The composition (framing, rule-of-thirds, fibonacci/golden spiral, strong points, geometrical composition, color "dialogue"), the "photographic speech", the genres (photojournalist approach, architecture, photographic essay, dynamic images), telling a story with images (single image vs set of correlated images), still-life, landscape, the abstract image...

Make the best of the photographic technique during an exploration of Lisbon after sundown.
The night photography, with its specific low light, it is a real technical challenge which opens a possibility to fields that could not be reached during the day (motion effect with low light, moving lights, creative special use of the flash, ...).
You can learn how to use your camera, set the proper exposure, and transform the "enemy" light to an "ally". The lights, the contrasts, and the moving elements allow a completely different approach of the opportunities that photography offer.
We will help you to choose what drives you and what you would love to explore with photography:

The Weekend-Atelier starts in the afternoon when you will learn the basics of photographic technique and the very-important framing and composition, which will take you to an afternoon of practical field-exercises. When the night starts to approach, the scope of the practical exercise changes setting and light, and a moment of night photography and creative techniques will be shown to you.
After such a full day the only thing you need is to charge you batteries and your camera.
