Golf and Photography Trip Lofoten Links with Jacob Sjoman
When Swedish photographer Jacob Sjoman drove to Lofoten a few years ago, he had no idea that he would capture one of the world's most famous golf course photos there: the signature hole of the Top 100 golf course Lofoten Links, the par 3 on the 2nd hole, with the Northern Lights in the background. Today, almost every golfer knows this picture – and Sjoman belongs to the absolute world elite of golf course photographers. Frode Hov, CEO of Lofoten Links, considers September to be one of the most beautiful travel times for his homeland – then you can enjoy the golf course and have a good chance of seeing the Northern Lights in the evening.
On this trip, we combine the golfing experience of Lofoten Links and the dreamlike landscape of the Norwegian archipelago with a photography workshop. None other than Jacob Sjoman himself will give participants tips on golf course, nature, and (if nature cooperates) Northern Lights photography. Therefore, bringing your own photographic equipment is expressly desired – whether it's a smartphone, a drone, or of course a camera. Sjoman will give participants tips on the right image composition during the golf rounds on selected fairways, in conversations on the sidelines of the trip, and during joint excursions.
Dag 1: Rejsen til Navrik
Du rejser til Frankfurt lufthavn på egen hånd. Om morgenen flyver du direkte fra Frankfurt til Narvik med Discover Airlines. Transporten til golfbanen Lofoten Links foregår i en moderne bus med aircondition. Her flytter I ind på jeres værelser for fire nætter - alle deltagere bor i lodges på Lofoten Links, som også giver fremragende muligheder for at observere nordlyset med deres glaserede opholdsområder. Efter en velkomstdrink spiser I middag sammen. Her møder du Jacob Sjoman, som leder fotoworkshoppen. Han vil lære dig det grundlæggende i golfbane- og nordlysfotografering.
Day 2: First Round of Golf - Kvalvika Beach - Reine
After breakfast, start for the first round of golf. During the round, Jacob Sjoman will give you valuable tips on how to best capture a golf course photographically. After an individual lunch break, drive to Kvalvika Beach and visit the beautiful fishing village of Reine. Joint dinner near the golf club. If Northern Lights are expected this day, a photo workshop with Jacob Sjoman will take place at the Lofoten Links facility after dark.
Day 3: Henningsvaer - Troll Fjord
After breakfast, you will first drive to Henningsvaer for a city walk and then depart from Svolvaer for a mini-cruise into the Troll Fjord. With a bit of luck, you can observe sea eagles and whales. After the return trip, joint dinner. The same applies today: if Northern Lights are expected, we will conduct a corresponding workshop in the evening.
Day 4: Second Round of Golf and Stokmarknes
After breakfast, start for the second round of golf and accompanying photo workshop with golf course photographer Jacob Sjoman. After an individual lunch break, drive to Stokmarknes with a visit to the Hurtigruten Museum. Afterwards, farewell with a joint dinner in a restaurant in Stokmarknes and return to the accommodation. We also ask for your flexibility in the evening, because if Northern Lights are expected on this day, we will offer all interested participants another opportunity for guided photography.
Day 5: Departure
After breakfast, transfer to the airport in Narvik. You will fly with Discover Airlines directly to Frankfurt, arriving in the afternoon.
The onward journey from Frankfurt Airport is your own responsibility.
