This fall, we, Marieke and Suzan, are organizing the ultimate combination of intens photography and tropical rest.
Check out all the info below!
Who we are
MARIEKE
@mariekecanphotography

SUZAN
@suzanfastrephotography
.
We are 2 Belgian photographers who live in beautiful the province of Limburg.
We have been friends for years and love working together on new projects.
Hello Workshop Tenerife!!!
Together we went to the Dolomites to capture the most beautiful mountains and couples there.
(See Marieke's beautiful result below :)).
In addition, Suzan has also been to Santorini, Lisbon and the Azores for various photography workshops. Enough experience to now put together a workshop where work and relaxation go hand in hand.
We like authenticity.
Both chaotic, but hey, honestly, aren't you like that too?
That's why photography suits us so well.
Somehow we always make it work, right?!
Marieke is a mother of 3 and Suzan has her hands full with 2 :) We love our kids so much,
but a week in Tenerife, guiding a groep of creative people is the perfect escape for us.
We can't wait to meet you!
PLANNING
DAY 1 - 25 OCTOBER
Get Settled
- Arrival at the beautiful holiday home.
- Relax by the pool, explore the area, and do whatever you feel like.
- Welcome dinner to get to know each other.
DAY 2 - 26 OCTOBER
Let's Go!
SHOOT 1: GOOD MORNING MASCA
At sunrise, we head to the tropical and picturesque mountain village of Masca. This is a place you absolutely MUST see!
SHOOT 2: ELOPEMENT IN AN ABANDONED VILLAGE
After some rest and a good meal, we head to a mysterious abandoned village by the sea. We’ll use the harsh shadows and bright sunlight in and around the old buildings to create powerful images.
SHOOT 3: FAMILY AT THE BEACH
At sunset, we head to a peaceful spot by the beach. First, we’ll take a short walk past rocks and cacti, and then we’ll be rewarded with a stunning view of this beautiful beach. The exact location remains a secret for now... but you're gonna love it!
DAY 3 - 27 OCTOBER
READY FOR THE SECOND ROUND
SHOOT 4: DRAMATIC OCEAN & BLACK BEACHES
Early in the morning, we travel to the rugged north of the island, where black sand beaches and huge rocks meet the ocean. Truly breathtaking!
SHOOT 5: ENGAGEMENT SHOOT IN LA OROTAVA
In the afternoon, when the sun is high in the sky, we make our way to the charming town of La Orotava. There, we’ll split into smaller groups and work with the bright sunlight in the colorful streets.
SHOOT 6: ROCKS IN THE GLOW OF SUNSET
To wrap up the workshop, we visit Tenerife’s iconic rocky landscape. The evening light casts a magical red glow over the rocks and we’ll be there to capture it!
DAY 4 - 28 OCTOBER
You Did it!
- SLEEP IN — You’ve Earned It!
- Delicious brunch.
- Relax by the pool.
- Optional editing time if desired.
- And we will take you to the airport.
It's going to be fantastic!
Why Tenerife and why come with us?
Tenerife is an island of many contrasts. You'll find sun-drenched beaches and mysterious lunar landscapes, lush forests and imposing volcanic peaks fringed with black sand.
You can start by car in the north, exploring the green valleys and colorful villages. Then, in the evening, you can enjoy the sunset on the white beaches.
= MANY different locations and backgrounds.
We like to take a different approach than the usual "styled shoots." We don't hire real models; our couples aren't models, but they do love to express their love for our camera. Pure, genuine, and these photos are perfect for your portfolio.
= NATURAL images with epic landscapes
What to expect from this workshop?
This workshop is the perfect mix between adventurous photoshoots and completely relaxing in beautiful Tenerife.
On the first day we will completely relax! Following by an intense 2-day workshop, to end again with a relax day at the pool in our villa.
From the black beaches to a tropical mountain village. Through the smallest alleys of the villages to the rough rocks along the sea.
Bring enough SD cards because we provide new models at every location to get the most out of this portfolio workshop!
And by "models," we meant real couples, not actual models. It should look natural and genuine, no photos that wouldn't fit on your feed or website.
Everything is arranged for you from the moment you arrive at the airport.
We will drive you to the large villa that will be our home base during this adventure.
Here you can completely relax between the photoshoots and we will get to know each other better!
LETS GO!
01.
RELAX AND BE INSPIRED
For 4 days and 3 nights, you'll stay in a super cozy villa where you can relax and unwind. There will be a fully stocked fridge with drinks and snacks, and you can socialize or chill by the pool between shoots.
Sounds perfect, right?
02.
INTENSE SHOOTS
We'll set out for two days, starting early in the morning, to make the most of the stunning scenery. We'll explore the entire island, from tropical mountain villages to volcanic black landscapes and the crystal-clear blue sea.
03.
VARIATION AT IT'S BEST
It's not just the island that offers a huge variety of landscapes. We take it one step further and offer six different couples/families just for you!
This combination allows you to truly expand your portfolio filled with variety
04.
CREATIVE VIBES
Working with a group of people who all share the same passion creates a unique atmosphere! Everyone has their own perspective, style, and approach, and by working closely together, spontaneous creative ideas emerge and new friendships are formed.
