Venice Carnival – Workshop

Details: This is a two-day workshop designed for a small group (6 people). You will photograph not only the colorful carnival costumes, but also the best known attractions such St. Marco’s Square, Rialto Bridge, the Bridge of Sights, St. George Island, and the Grand Canale. If the weather is nice, we can also take a boat trip to the colorful island of Burano, known for its brightly colored fishermen’s houses. I will make sure that we will be out early (before the huge crowds), so we’ll capture the beautiful sunrise light which will increase our chances to take impressive shots. My aim is to help you not only to go back home with some great photos, but also to improve your photography technique in general. We will have individual and group discussions where I will guide you, we will generate ideas, and most importantly, we will have fun! 

Equipment: I  recommend a dSLR type camera with lenses which allow you to shoot subjects near and far (for example a 24-70mm and a 70-200mm), a tripod, spare batteries, and spare storage cards. All levels are welcome! 

Price: 590 CHF per person includes learning about your camera settings and capabilities (ISO, exposure, focusing), advise on how to get the best images (locations, composition, technique), and how to establish a rapport with the ‘models’ in carnival costumes, while at the same time dealing with other photographers present.  A non-refundable deposit of 250 CHF is due by 15th February 2019 in order to secure your place. If you bring a friend, you both get a discount of 50 CHF off the price of the workshop. The price doesn’t include international travel, meals, drinks, insurance, accommodation, or airport transfers. However, I can give you some recommendations for accommodation and means of transportation.

International Women’s Day – Celebrating the Many Facets of Women

Women are amazing! Celebrate this International Women’s Day with a special professional photo session showcasing the different facets of women.

Let’s face it, women are good at multi-tasking and they play so many important roles in society. However, even today, women are not always recognized for all they do, or they are labeled as having one role only. That is why, for this year’s International Women’s Day, I would like to show the many facets of women as they are: strong, beautiful, smart, accomplished.

Price: 350 CHF per session
