A photography weekend in Bruges and Ghent is a dream come true for those of us who are looking for stunning visuals and timeless architecture.
Bruges with its cobblestone streets, serene canals, and medieval buildings, provides endless opportunities for capturing postcard-worthy shots - whether it's the iconic Belfry tower, the charm of Markt Square, or the peaceful reflections on the canals at golden hour.
Ghent offers a vibrant blend of history and modernity, with its majestic St. Bavo's Cathedral, the enchanting Graslei waterfront, and the illuminated Castle of the Counts at night. Both cities boast an incredible ambiance, especially in early morning or evening light, perfect for photographers chasing dramatic compositions and unique perspectives.
A weekend in these two cities not only lets you hone your skills but also immerses you in their rich history, culture, and artistic appeal, it has all the makings of a creative weekends photography. What better way to explore Belgium and enrich your portfolio?

Join us on this long exposure taster session and learn to shoot long exposure using Kase Magnetic Filters. We will provide you with a set of filters you'll be amazed with! All you need to bring is your camera and tripod :) and of course a fun and experimental attitude!
Filters give you the ability to smooth water, blur clouds and make moving objects turn ghost-like or disappear. This type of photography is associated with fine art photography due to the surreal effects long exposures can bring.
