SPAIN PHOTO WORKSHOP 2026

Welcome to the Mark Hemmings Andalusia Spain Photo Workshop!
LOCATION: Andalusia region (Southern Spain) including Seville, Ronda, Cordoba, Malaga and trips to various smaller towns and Pueblo Blanco mountain villages such as Zahara, Zuheros, Priego de Córdoba and Carmona and Setinil de Las Bodegas.
DATE: Sunday March 22 to Sunday March 29, 2025.
COST: $4,995 USD per person (the single supplement is waived for this trip). This workshop is limited to only six guests for maximum teaching time.
DETAILS: The price of $4,995 USD includes all in-country transportation from the evening of March 22 to the early morning of March 29, all hotels, entry fees to select historic locations (see itinerary for details), walking tours , Mark’s workshop teaching fee and all hotel breakfasts and restaurant dinners.
The price doesn’t include transportation to the Malaga hotel on Sunday the 22nd, or return to your departure airport from Cordoba on Sunday the 29th at the end of the workshop. The reason for this exception is because each guest has their own time of arrival and departure, and also some may find that Madrid is an easier airport to arrive at (and then a local train to Malaga). For example, Mark arrives a day earlier in Madrid, and then he makes his way via high speed train to Malaga for Sunday March 22. If Madrid is an easier arrival point, please join Mark for a pre-workshop evening street photography session in Madrid on Saturday March 21.
Some lunch times are free time, so even though we will eat a number of lunches together as a group, lunch fees will be the responsibility of the participant. Alcohol at meals is also the responsibility of the guests.
Mark will show you the best of the three major cities and smaller mountain towns, and he will teach photography during the tours. Mark is a big fan of local food, so we will also be tasting local specialties.
