Venice is the living, breathing backdrop for this exclusive and iconic street photography workshop with photographer Marco Secchi or a seasoned associate. It’s designed to sharpen your eye and transform the way you capture city scenes. You’ll step into the rhythm of Venice—exploring hidden alleys, vibrant markets, and quiet canals, where light, movement, and people create ever-changing compositions. Throughout the experience, you’ll refine your skills in candid photography, composition, and visual storytelling, learning how to work with natural light to its fullest. Whether you shoot with a Leica, mirrorless, DSLR, or film, this hands-on workshop adapts to your level, helping you build confidence and creativity in real time. With expert guidance, you’ll discover the city beyond the postcards—capturing the moments locals live every day. It’s about seeing Venice differently, with fresh eyes and a deeper connection. A rare opportunity for those who seek special immersive experiences.

Venice is a city of fleeting moments—light on water, artisans at work, daily life unfolding in quiet corners. But capturing its essence demands more than technical skill. It requires an eye for the unseen and a feel for the rhythm of the city. Led by a working photojournalist and grounded in real-time observation and practice, this private photography masterclass isn’t about staged shots or postcard views. It’s about learning instinct—training yourself to anticipate movement, to look around corners, and to embrace imperfection in pursuit of something real. You’ll shift from settings to seeing—developing a more intuitive, responsive approach. Unlike typical photography tours, this experience immerses you in Venice’s unscripted moments. A fleeting glance in a market. A boatman lost in thought. Small things. Real things. This is an invitation to see Venice—and yourself—differently. To stop chasing the perfect shot, and start capturing life as it unfolds.
