Do you have any questions or want more information about the workshop?
Experience Burano as you've never seen it before.
Let's discover this beautiful island together: imagine walking among houses painted red, yellow, and turquoise, while the warm afternoon light shatters on the canals, creating reflections that change with every step. Burano is a living stage, where laundry hanging in the wind, curious glances and perfect color geometries transform everyday life into a postcard in motion. It's the ideal setting for those who want to learn how to tell stories with a single shot.
Who is this workshop for?
You don't need expensive gear or years of experience. This workshop is designed for:
- Passionate amateurs who want to sharpen their eye and technique.
- Those who only shoot with their smartphone: the rules of street photography don't change, only the tool in your hand changes.
- Those who use DSLR or mirrorless cameras and want to take their technique outside the box.
The only requirement is the curiosity to look at the world with different eyes.
What you will learn and what we will do together
- Reading light and shadows: how to use Burano's natural contrasts to create stronger and more dramatic images.
- Composing with urban geometries: transforming colorful façades and canals into perfect frames for your subjects.
- Overcoming shyness when photographing people: the "invisible" approach to taking pictures on the street without being intrusive.
- Be ready in less than a second: the right settings (on any camera or smartphone) so you never miss the moment.
All guided step by step, with constant attention to each participant: the group is deliberately small to allow everyone to move freely and receive real support in the field.

Important information
This workshop involves taking the boat at the F.te Nove "A" stop, departing at 3:20 PM and departure from Burano at 6:10 pm. I recommend arriving at least 10 minutes in advance with your ticket ready.
Transportation to the venue is not included in the event ticket. Please remember to purchase your vaporetto ticket before departure.
If you need information about tickets or how to get to the meeting point, please don't hesitate to ask me!
Absolutely yes! Photography is not just about complex technique, but above all about eye, composition, and light. The workshop is structured to teach you to see the world differently, regardless of the device you use.
For this specific daytime walking workshop, a tripod is not necessary and would risk slowing down your movements. We recommend traveling light to enjoy the walk.
The workshop will take place regularly even in case of light rain (which offers fantastic reflections and atmospheres for street photography!). In case of heavy thunderstorms or weather alerts, the event will be postponed or a full refund will be issued.
The workshop is conducted mainly in Italian. However, if you speak English, I can absolutely guide you with basic instructions and help you with your camera settings. While there won't be fluent, continuous English explanations throughout the event, if you have an adaptable spirit, you are more than welcome to join us!
