(…) This sounds so cliché (…), but this workshop has changed my life! The 35mm has not left my camera and I am really enjoying composing in a way that is more interesting. (…) A few things that you said about my photography really shocked me but shocked me more to realise that you were

Graciela Magnoni, Uruguay

I participated in 5 workshops with Nikos Economopoulos. He keeps guiding me so that I can keep defining my photographic style. Always pointing out and reminding to avoid cliches, déjà vu, mannerism, easy formulas, tricks, boring images and the list goes on. Always making sure we prioritize content and form to make strong images that

Hakan Gokbayrak, Turkey

I attended the workshop in Istanbul. My photograpic vision and the way of see is changed after this workshop. Nikos is a great teacher. I remember his words and comments even now. His comments are always friendly and honest. So I will attend another workshop as soon as possible.

Jan Gott, Austria

Nikos is a wayfaring man. He takes you on a journey which is neither comfy nor sluggish, but encourages you to witness the foreign and encounter your own limits. This way of traveling with the camera forces you to participate with the world around you and in the evenings during the workshop your participation will

Keng-Fun Loh, Singapore

I did not know what to expect from a Greek maestro who lives and travels half the year in his cool VW T3. From the first hour of meeting Nikos in Pristina, my perspective on human relations and photography changed. His no-nonsense approach, opinions and advice delivered always with respect, kindness and often times, humour

Esra Belgin, Turkey

I participated in just one workshop with Nikos so far, and now I see why people want to do it over and over again. It was a unique experience! It is amazing how my way of seeing things changed in one week.Nikos is a great photographer and an educator. I will certainly return.

Fernando Rituerto Pineiro, Spain

This is my fifth workshop with Nikos. It has became kind of an annual meeting with him. Every year I discover something new. In Lisbon workshop, different photographic issues have arised about the event and the anti-event, go beyond description or what happen or not in the picture. I have learned to find a balance between all these photographic topics or,

Gunseli Baki, Turkey

First of all, I am very happy to know a person like Nikos. Even if we worked until late hours, I enjoyed every minute of it. I guess my adventure of photography will be divided into 2 before Nikos and after Nikos and I am very excited to use what I learned from Nikos on

Anna Barlund, Sweden

Here is some feedback on the Oaxaca workshop. Simple and short – the workshop was absolutely amazing. Excellence defined. The feedback sessions in the evenings were transforming with deep inspiration continuing as a growth journey day by day. I highly appreciate the way Nikos gives feedback and shares his amazing vision and way of seeing,

Jun Javelosa, Philippines

People ask me why I keep attending Nikos’ workshops. Well, I can’t imagine a better way to experience and photograph a new place than through Nikos’ workshop! The regimen and discipline it requires is just impossible to duplicate if you’re otherwise simply traveling on holiday. What’s even better is that you get daily feedback and instruction. We see ourselves

Jerome Percherancier, France

It’s all about sensibility, involvement, balance and control. This is mostly what I have learnt from Nikos workshop. From my day-to-day photos, Nikos directed my feelings and revealed what is the best in me. I started to be more conscious about what I was photographing, what I should photograph, what approach I should apply and

Alex Wydler, Switzerland

This was my third workshop with Nikos. The Iran trip was a unique journey and we all had a great time. But more important, thanks to the up-front teaching of Nikos, I could made a big step forward in my photography. I’m looking forward going with Nikos “on the road” again!

Monica Trachsel, Switzerland

I sometimes felt like a first year violin player in a master class. I do not mind feeling a bit stupid at times and think I profit a lot by learning of the best. I have learned a lot and will continue to do so for quite some time. And hopefully, I will be able

Keng-Fun Loh, Singapore

“This is my third workshop with Nikos and even though I should know what to expect, it was still such an intense journey from agony, elation through awakening, without any bullshit. It was like a much needed spiritual cleansing to expel the bad habits for a simple goal to make a better photograph that’s visually

Stella Kellari, Greece

The expertise and clear vision of Nikos criticism is the best gift for any photographer attending his workshops. The last few years I had lost motivation for photography and all i was hoping from this workshop was just to awake my “eye” and to feel the magic of the photographic process. The “mission” was more

Fahri Yasar, Turkey

“Ethiopia was my second workshop with Nikos, at the end of each workshop I wish to be everlasting. Being in photographically gorgeous places with fantastic people in group and of course Nikos’s pragmatic approach to photography was a wonderful experience. I fell i made a big step up as a photographer. I would like to thank Nikos not

Enrico Donelli, Italy

Ethiopia’s workshop has been a wonderful experience for my photography. Nikos guides you on a very precise path: one camera, one lens, one format between black and white and color, and focus on the image. Just relax, react to what you see, without too much thought or preparation. This may sound obvious, but it was

Lars Just, Danemark

For me as a professional photojournalist, to be with Nikos takes me back to photography where surprise and curiosity are key elements, instead of telling the story as specific as possible – as many editors seek today. Working in a fast moving newsflow, photojournalism needs surprise to stop readers, and Niko’s photography does exactly that.

Linda Caldwell, USA

It was a great trip and although I worked really hard, I still had a lot of fun wandering the streets and trying to hone my eye. It seemed to me that Nikos explained more in this workshop (as compared to the others I’ve taken with him) and I think that is a good thing.

Margarita Mavromichalis, Greece

It all sounds not enough when I think of the incredible two weeks that I spent traveling with Nikos to Nepal and India. Those two weeks were filled with beautiful moments captured by all the participants, all inspiring each other and supporting our effort and common goal. We all bonded beautifully and hopefully created life-long
