This is an all-inclusive 4-day film photo retreat in Bergen, Norway.  We will be staying in home in the heart of Bergen with a magical rooftop and fireplace. All meals will be provided each day. However, there will be no styled shoots, no models, and no random brides in the street. This is going to be a real-life on film completely curated photo experience. We will have 2 passenger vans to get us around from the home to each location each day. Each attendee will receive all portraits taken by Jonathan Canlas after the workshop.  Each time slot below represents 1/12 spots available for the workshop.
