In the photo master class, we were joined by LDTA members, participants of the Baltic Nature Tourism project, and other interested individuals. The event began with a brief introduction on the importance of photography in the tourism industry, emphasizing the significance of high-quality visual materials in promoting tourism services and destinations.

This was followed by a section on photography basics and tips, where participants learned about composition, lighting, and other essential aspects of photography. After the presentation, participants took part in a practical photography workshop, where they could apply their newly acquired knowledge by photographing each other indoors or outdoors.

After the active workshop, participants had the opportunity to network and get to know each other’s services. The master class concluded with an overview of the Nature Tourism Association, its current projects, and future activities. This was a great opportunity to gain new knowledge and skills that help promote the development and competitiveness of tourism products.
