What to expect

  1. Piazza San Marco
    40m
    We begin our workshop in the heart of Venice Piazza San Marco, bathed in the soft, golden light of the early morning. At this hour, the square is at its most magical quiet, atmospheric, and free from the crowds that fill it later in the day.

    Here, we will:

    • Capture the first light – Learn how to work with the golden hues and long shadows to create striking images.

    • Focus on composition – Using the grand architecture of St. Mark’s Basilica and the elegant arcades to frame your shots.

    • Experiment with reflections The early morning often brings beautiful water reflections on the piazza’s stone surface.

    • Refine camera settings Adjust exposure for the changing light conditions and optimize for depth and detail.

    • Embrace storytelling Capturing the essence of Venice waking up, from the first footsteps of locals to the quiet ripples in the Grand Canal nearby.

    This first stop is about setting the tone for the workshop. learning to observe light, and the scene
