Take a trip
through Italy!
September 07-13, 2026
Full cost - $8,900 (+ spouse additional $1,700)
This includes all the hotels, breakfast, and very nice fine diners in some good restaurants that have been researched for good local cuisine and not a tourist trap!
I traveled a lot in Italy and this is one of my favorite countries. This is ideal to shoot beautiful landscapes and cityscapes, to discover the south with the culture, the food and the environment. It is a whole experience and I am sure you will enjoy it!
This workshop is limited to a maximum of 14 participants. I really want to keep a small group so you can enjoy this experience to the fullest!

- Your camera,
- a tripod,
- a wireless remote or cable release,
- a wide-angle lens (24mm or wider),
- a telephoto lens,
- a ND filter (10-stops or higher) for long exposures,
- a laptop with Lightroom or Photoshop (or both) for the post-processing.
-
(Optional) ND Filter 1000, 70 - 200.
The weather in Italy is pretty warm so I would advise you to bring pretty light clothing, but it can get cold at night, so bring at least a sweater and it can rain so be ready for this too! We will be walking a lot during our photo hunting so be ready for that, and make sure that you are in good health and bring some comfortable shoes.
I accept all level of experience in photography, but just make sure you have the gear needed; otherwise it will be no fun for you. If you are missing a lens or a ND filter don’t worry about it!
If you are planning on bringing your husband or wife and they are NOT participating in the workshop, the cost is an additional $1,700. This will cover city tax, transportation and meals.
