You will travel to Vaxholm, a charming town known as the capital of the archipelago, which features a picturesque waterfront and a rich history that dates back to the 1500s when it was established as a military defense point.


Originally a small fishing village, Vaxholm was transformed by King Gustav Vasa into a strategic stronghold.

You will learn to master manual camera settings, including aperture, shutter speed, and ISO, while exploring advanced composition techniques to make the most of each scene. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced photographer, this hands-on guidance ensures that you can effectively document the beauty of the archipelago and refine your unique photographic style.


Take a break for a local lunch with views of the historic citadel and fortress, allowing you to recharge before continuing your photographic journey. This tour perfectly balances historical discovery with technical skill-building, making it an excellent choice for anyone wanting to improve their craft while visiting one of Sweden's most iconic locations. By the end of the day, you will have a collection of stunning images and a deeper understanding of how to capture the spirit of the archipelago.
