Can’t find the answer you’re looking for?

Feel free to write to me, I’m always happy to reply.

1) Do you have to be a photographer or photo enthusiast to participate in the trips/workshops?

Absolutely not. My trips and workshops are designed for anyone who wants to observe nature with respect, slowness, and curiosity. Photography is a means; the experience is for everyone.

It depends on the destination and the type of activity, but in general, good health and a decent ability to walk on natural trails are sufficient. Before each trip, you will receive a detailed program with the difficulty level and useful information.

The groups are always small: a minimum of 2, a maximum of 6 participants. This choice ensures a
more authentic, silent, and truly immersive experience in nature.

Yes. Bring what you have, even a smartphone. It’s not the camera that makes the magic; it’s the way you learn to look.

Of course.

During each outing, I will guide you step by step: settings, composition, animal behavior, choice of light. These are not classroom lessons, but natural learning in the field.

No animal is “programmable” and they do not cooperate with schedules. This is precisely why we choose periods and habitats where the chances of sighting are high and natural. Wildlife ethics are essential for me: no baiting, no disturbance, no shortcuts.

After contacting me, I will send you: – the complete program
– what is included
– what to bring
– any necessary documents.
Once you have decided to join the trip/workshop, I will send you the bank details to make the transfer.

You can also participate with a partner or a friend who is not interested in photography. The groups remain small and the experience remains pleasant for everyone.

The trips are calibrated: they alternate between exploration, photography, relaxation, and moments of discussion. The goal is not to “take as many shots as possible,” but to experience nature without rushing.

Absolutely yes.

Many participants start precisely to learn how to move with respect for natural environments.

Yes. Just tell me what you are looking for: specific fauna, atmosphere, photographic level, time of year. I will create a sensible path with you that is suitable for your expectations.

Respect for animals, participant safety, photographic ethics, sustainability, and authentic narration of the wild. No forcing, no exaggerated promises, no shows: just real nature.

Nature is not controlled, but respected. In case of significant changes, we reorganize the outings safely, without altering the experience.

For each trip, you will receive a detailed checklist: technical clothing, recommended equipment,Β  documents, useful materials. I want you to leave prepared, without stress.

Yes, in fact: the small groups make the trip intimate, quiet, never intrusive. Everyone lives the experience at their own pace: there is no competition, no pressure.

They are both.

Photography is the common thread that unites observation, atmosphere, and relationship with the environment. It is not sterile technique, but narration of the real.

Absolutely yes. In fact, it is one of the reasons why many participate: to feelΒ  art of a small, close-knit group.

Completely. Zero buses, zero crowds, zero confusion. Small groups, selected places, and a slow pace: the opposite of traditional tourist trips.

Because it is the most respectful way to experience wildlife and the only one that truly allows you to learn. More people = more noise = less nature. Fewer people = more silence, more attention, more emotions.

Always. I remain available for a selective review of the photos taken during the tour, so as to consolidate what you have learned.
