Santorini Seminar Equipment List
Santorini is best known for its beautiful white Greek architecture with splashes of blue, the blue sky and the magical light. The seminar is now less than 10 days away and our sponsors Hensel, Chimera. Sunbounce and Capture Integration/Phase One have sent us several palettes of toys to play with. This is very exciting and the past five months of hard work and planning is finally coming together.
There is no other place on earth that offers the same play-background for a photographer like Santorini. Anywhere you lay your eye, you will see something worth photographing, and I am not talking about our beautiful models that will travel there to make sure that you won’t miss a thing!
To top things off, we will be shooting pictorial content and, who knows, some of you may end up in the pages of Playboy (hint, hint). So, the expectations are as high as they come. Below you will find a list of goodies that will enhance the epic experience.

Now if there wasn’t enough light in Santorini already, there will be soon!
And thank you in advance to all the great sponsors for the opportunity to use there fine products in a real world environment. I’d also like to apologise in advance to my better half for possibly, inadvertently purchasing some of it by accident. (He says, hoping she will not read this before I leave)
