Our Itinerary  

Day 1- Arrival Benvenuto!

Today you will arrive at Florence airport and will be met by a private chauffeur for a collective group pick up. You will be driven through the Tuscan countryside to our private Italian villa. Settle into your new home as we get to know each other and the grounds. We will be having our Welcome Dinner tonight prepared and served by our local private chef. After dinner, we will review the week’s plan and have our first photography lesson of the week.

Day 2- Florence

Our first full day in Tuscany begins with a breakfast prepared by our chef. After we eat, we will get ready to head into Florence. Today’s photography lesson will be focused on training your eye. We will spend the day in the city practicing storytelling. You will also have some creative free time to practice your skills, as well as exploring the city. An authentic Florentine lunch and dinner will be included.

Day 3- Wine Tour

We will start our morning off with a breakfast curated by our private chef. Today’s lesson will be “Romantic Couples Photoshoot” where you will learn to direct using natural light. We will have lunch at home prepared by our private chef, before heading off on a private Tuscan Sunset Wine Tour & Tasting in Chianti where we will photograph our couple. We will be picked up from the villa and visit the town of San Gimignano. Here we can visit the Great Medieval Tower, taste the famous Gelato World Champion at Antica Gelateria di Piazza, and photograph our couple before heading to our winery. Once at the winery, we will be able to practice shooting our couple, as well as have a wine tasting and dinner.

Day 4- Villa

Today, we will soak in all that the villa has to offer. This includes food, architecture, the swimming pool, a possible on site wine cellar visit and more. Today’s topic will be “Lifestyle Portraits”. Capturing models candidly around the villa. Lunch is included, followed by a lively evening of an authentic Italian cooking class led by our private chef. We will make and indulge in original cuisine! At the end of the day we will review our work.

Day 5- Departure

For our last day, we will start with an early rise for a tranquil sunrise photo session. After taking in the rising sun on the Tuscan hills, we will have one last breakfast together from our chef. After we say our goodbyes, our private driver will take you back to Florence airport departing at 11am.

HOW IT WILL WORK 
I'd love to get to know you before our stay. This retreat will be a combination of learning and enjoying. We will have days at the vineyard, swimming in the pool, & taking a cooking class hosted by our private chef. 

Over the course of five days, you will be building your portfolios alongside 7 other photographers in a private villa in Tuscany, Italy.

I will be guiding lessons that will teach you to create cinematic stories to evoke emotion and capture movement using natural light.

You will learn how to direct clients in a way that allows photos to feel free and natural.

Unfortunately, I can only take 8 people off the waitlist and I want to make sure all of the guests are on the same level of skill so each of you can get the most out of this experience.  

Please fill out the questionnaire. 

I will send out an e-mail to everyone whose portfolio matches the criteria with the date and time to reserve your spot. You will be sent two scheduling links where you can select a private or shared bathroom and schedule a time slot for July 22, 2024. After you'll be sent an invoice with a payment plan. You can choose to pay in full or pay in 4 installments.
