STREET PHOTOGRAPHY

Winter light: 7:00 – 11:00 a.m. or 7 p.m. –10 p.m.

The “theater” of the street is exciting and unpredictable in Rome, where the ancient architecture forms a backdrop to contemporary mini-scenes, interactions and colors. 

In this workshop, participants will learn the best strategies for capturing street life respectfully and unobtrusively, while learning new techniques in observation and fast captures.
