Thanks for a thoroughly professionally organized and executed landscape photography experience. As we discussed, the importance of logistics is essential and they were seamless.
Thanks to your hard work and scholarly, scientific and aesthetic approach to landscape photography we learned to create better images!
During the 15 years I dedicated to photographing landscapes all over the world, I was seldom as impressed as I have been by the Oregon Coast and its unique seascapes. Beach after beach, cove after cove, cliff after cliff you are met by a never-ending showcase of incredible sea stacks, arches and rock formations, ready to offer you enough inspiration to last for a lifetime. In 2023 I dedicated one and half month non-stop to the Oregon Coast, working both on photographing its unmissable iconic locations and on exploring it out of the beaten track, as I always do, to find those beautiful, unspoiled spots that I love to photograph for my personal work and that make our Workshops unique.
After running 1 Workshops on The Oregon Coast, in 2025 we retired this Workshop to dedicate our energies to exploring and adding new amazing destinations and locations.
Designing your The Oregon Coast Photography Workshop, leveraging on over a decade of experience leading more than 110 Workshops, one of which on the Oregon Coast, I prepared a fully comprehensive Portfolio of locations featuring the best natural locations, including sea stacks, sea arches, sandy beaches and bizarre rock formations, and mixing them with man-made ones such as bridges, lighthouses, shipwrecks and more.
A workshop with Vieri is like savouring your favorite dish. You look forward, you anticipate, you prepare, you pay attention to every little detail, you enjoy, and you learn through the interpretation of every little change and the minute adjustments made. These moments together are intensive and fun. You learn new styles and polish familiar ones. Simplicity and mastery of the tools are key. This was my second workshop with Vieri. One builds on the other since Vieri has enormous attention for detail, remembers one’s style and adjusts suggestions accordingly!
To make the most out of your time with us, we recommend you will bring to the Workshop:
