About this trip

4 Days, 3 Nights

Workshop start: March 7, 2024, Hotel in Venice
Workshop end: March 10, 2024, Hotel in Venice


Venice is famous for its beautiful location, its architecture and its work of art. The entire town is recorded as a Unesco World Heritage along with its lagoon. Venice is truly a photographer’s paradise with fabulous images to be captured at every corner. Join us for a captivating 4 day, 3 night workshop where we will photograph one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Our small group size allows for more quality time to be spent with each person and to help with whatever aspect of photography one wishes to improve. 

Activities

We are staying in an art-hotel located in a picturesque 17th-century building on the canal of Palazzo Ducal, only a 2 minute walk from St. Mark's square, in the heart of Venice. We will move around the city by foot and water bus, leaving early in the morning to capture the best light and morning mist. We will then return to our hotel for an inviting breakfast buffet and allow for time to rest. During the day, we will demonstrate and discuss shooting and processing techniques, share images, and venture out for some street photography. In the evening, we will explore more of Venice's beauty, enjoy the delicious Italian food and wine in wonderful restaurants, and complete the night with a captivating sunset and blue hour shoot. 

What will I learn?

During our workshop we will talk about workflow, composition, the best use of filters such as polarizers, neutral density and grads, exposures, how to read and interpret histograms, focusing methods, bracketing and much more. In our post processing sessions we will demonstrate our workflow, share images, and work together to learn from each other. Our small group setup gives everyone the opportunity to reach his or her photography goals and objectives. Our tours are always fun and allow for plenty of room for individualism and creativity. 

Fitness Level: Moderate

Steps up and down bridges and into and out of the water bus, a lot of walking on uneven streets.

I really enjoyed my day with Claudia. She is extremely knowledgable about the area, the wildlife and photography. I highly reccommend spending some time with her if you are in the area and are interested in getting some great images.

It was an interesting introduction to Portugal including the capitol, Lisbon, and locations in the Algarve coast. Our workshop leader, Paolo, brought us to some beautiful locations to photograph. Paolo was generous with his time and knowledge. And we certainly ate well!

Benefitted from Paulo’s years of exploring his neighbourhood and knowing where unknown picturesque locations exist and the best time to visit them. His knowledge of the use of filters was exceptional and he is so helpful to people of all levels of photography. A wonderful trip!

I thought the Madeira workshop was amazing. The island and photo locations were just stunning. The photographer Paulo was very knowledgeable and technical and while I am an amateur photographer doing it only as a hobby, he was very patient with me and spent a lot of time teaching me techniques for landscape photography. I am so grateful to Paulo for all I learned just in the 5 days. The small group in this workshop made for a more personal experience with like-minded individuals. Thank you to Paulo for taking us to jaw dropping photo locations and to the group for making the 5-days extremely enjoyable. Will definitely do another photo workshop with Photos Worldwide.

Medeira is a stunning location and unique. The workshop led by Paulo Silva took us to the best locations for sunrise and sunset each day. The hotel was good serving an excellent breakfast. Highly recommended.

Paulo is a wonderful guide and teacher. We thoroughly enjoyed his hospitality as he showed us the beautiful regions of his home country, Portugal. The value (price vs quality) of Paulo and Claudia's tours is exceptional. They treat their customers with respect and are extremely cordial. I highly recommend Photo Tours Worldwide!
