Alor Photo Academy

Every photographer has a unique camera set up, different skill level and individual interests. That‘s why we believe there is no one class that simply works for all.
Luckily, Alami is a small and personal resort which means we can 100% focus on you! To ensure this, all workshops start with an initial evaluation together with our photo pro.

Customized To Your Needs & Goals- Every workshop is one-on-one so that we can focus on your individual setup, experience & wishes -

Your Setup

What system are you shooting with?
How familiar are you with your camera & accessories?
What new gadgets would you like to try (i.e. strobe, video light or snoot)

Your Skills

What’s your current skill level?
Techniques you frequently use/have difficulties with?
What do you want to work on specifically/techniques you want to master?

Your Passion

The focus will be on your exact preferences.
