A short story from the last Rome workshop

Day Two: The reflection that vanished.
We started early, crossing the Tiber into central Rome. The brief was simple: hunt the light first—how it falls on faces, defines space, and turns a plain wall into a canvas of contrast. At one corner, a window bounced a clean pool of light onto the street; we used it like a reflector—until someone opened the window and the light disappeared. A perfect lesson in staying responsive: moments (and light) don’t wait.

Monochrome mindset.
Later, in Trastevere, a woman with an umbrella, arms full and a newspaper tucked under, paused and looked up—a scene that became pure geometry in black & white: posture, presence, contrast. It’s a reminder that monochrome isn’t a filter but a way of seeing—stripping distraction to reveal light, shadow, form and emotion. (Yes, colour can sing too; the point is choosing intentionally.)

If you’d like a feel for the look and pace, have a browse through the Rome 2025 gallery Black-and- white as well as in colour.

Who this is for

Whether you’re new to street photography or refining your craft, the workshop is built to boost confidence, sharpen vision, and bring more joy back into your shooting—keeping gear simple so you can focus on light, timing, and story.

After we wrap

A few days later, we meet on Zoom for a friendly group critique. You’ll have time to post‑edit and share a small selection so we can discuss choices and next steps—turning the weekend into a repeatable approach you can carry anywhere.
