We will focus on the personal photographic practices of the participants and, through a thorough review of all the photographer’s means, we will discover the small wonders we can create in our photography through the art of visual improvisation and by breaking the narrow boundaries of “visual constructions”. Above all, however, the workshop is designed to provide practical tools and effective working methods to address any photographic issue, from concept stage to working method and editing.

This workshop is for advanced amateurs and medium to high level photographers, who know the basics and want to develop their photographic voice, need guidance in making better photos, forming their project, and finding their vision through a disciplined and focused way of working.
