Of all the world’s destinations, very few attract so many travelling photographers as Italy. No matter where you go, there is always something to photograph, be it a thousand-year-old Roman monument, a bustling street market, or a sprawling vineyard.
Two of the most popular destinations are Venice and the Cinque Terre – the former for its iconic canals and annual Carnival festivities, and the latter for its stunning coastal scenery and quaint seaside villages.
It is in these two places that well-known Italian travel/landscape photographer and Fuji X series user Ugo Cei and travel/wedding photographer Massimiliano Cremascoli hold their popular Italian photo tours.
Photo Tour – Venice Carnival 2017
Venice is a fascinating city to visit regardless of when you go, but there is nothing quite like the magical atmosphere during Carnival – or “Carnevale” as it is known in Italian – when thousands of people all over the world fill the city streets, their identities shrouded by magnificent costumes and masks.
During the “Venice and the Magic of the Carnival” photo tour, you will spend five days photographing all there is to see in Venice under the guidance of Ugo and Massimiliano, from the models in costume to the dozens of churches, palaces, museums, narrow side streets and small canals of the city itself.
There will also be the possibility to photograph some of the best models at exclusive locations, such as hotels, palaces, and theatres amidst ancient furniture and tapestries.
The photo tour will take place from February 15th – 20th 2017. You will be part of a small group of no more than 12 students, which ensures you will have plenty of attention from your instructors. All instruction is given in English.
