One Lens For All – ROME – May 5-6, 2028

675,00 €

Two-day Street Photo Workshop in beautiful Rome.

Location

We’ll explore the vibrant Trastevere neighbourhood and its charming side streets, seeking the best light and scenes. We’ll also cross the bridges over the Tiber for new perspectives and broader city views. Bring your camera and lenses, get fresh inspiration, and learn to control your camera for better photography.

Simplify your gear. Strengthen your eye.

This workshop explores how working with one camera and one lens can simplify the photographic process and strengthen the way you see. By removing unnecessary choices, you will learn to understand your lens more instinctively, anticipate the frame before raising the camera, and respond more quickly to light, composition, and unfolding moments.

Don’t miss this opportunity. Sign up now and secure your spot in an unforgettable photography experience!

Also, this workshop is designed to help you see more clearly, work with light more intentionally, and build stronger photographs with greater confidence.

Whether you are new to street photography or already experienced, the teaching is adapted to your level and goals.

Part of the workshop is dedicated to understanding your camera setup, lens choices, and how to work confidently with your gear in real-life situations. Then we focus on observation, timing, composition, and learning to recognise the moments and light that give a photograph life. We review and talk during the day, and all workshops are organic, so we adapt to the group’s needs.

Zoom online critique after the workshop is included.

Description

What to expect

The workshop is built around hands-on learning in real streets and real situations.

Across the two days, we will work with:

  • observation and visual awareness
  • light and timing
  • composition and simplification
  • working with intention in busy and quiet urban scenes
  • building confidence and consistency in your street photography

The first day begins with an introduction and visual direction for the workshop, followed by guided shooting sessions in the city. The second day builds on what you learned on day one, so your progress becomes visible, practical, and repeatable.

Typical workshop hours are:

Day 1: 10:00–17:00; Day 2: 10:00–15:00

Small group format

The workshop is limited to a maximum of 8 – 10 participants. This allows time for personal feedback, individual guidance, and space to work at your own pace.

Before the workshop, you will receive a short questionnaire about your experience, goals, camera, and lenses, so the teaching can be tailored more closely to you. All camera brands and formats are welcome.

After the workshop

After you return home, you are invited to a free group Zoom critique. This gives you time to edit, reflect, and continue the learning together with the group.

Practicalities

Participants arrange their own travel, accommodation, and meals. Relaxed coffee breaks during the day are included.

Please come prepared for the weather, with charged batteries, empty memory cards, or fresh film.

All camera brands are welcome. Bring your favourite lenses.

Meeting point

We will start at 10 AM at Piazza di Santa Maria in Trastevere, 15, 00153 Roma RM, Italy.  

The exact meeting spot is at the fountain placed in the centre of the square. We’ll find coffee after the meeting there.

It is recommended to stay in the area or somewhere with easy access to the meeting point.

Booking

After signing up, you will receive a short questionnaire about your goals, camera, and lenses, plus practical information before the workshop and follow-up information afterwards.

If you have any questions before booking, feel free to get in touch.

Suggested Hotels in Trastevere

Participants arrange their own accommodation, but I recommend staying in or close to Trastevere. This allows you to experience the atmosphere of the neighbourhood outside workshop hours and makes it easy to reach our starting point. Feel free to search further for other options, but here’s a starting point.

Hotel Santa Maria

A charming and peaceful three-star hotel in a historic 17th-century cloister, just a few steps from Piazza Santa Maria in Trastevere. It has only 19 rooms and offers a quiet retreat in the heart of the neighbourhood.

Hotel Trastevere

A straightforward and centrally located three-star hotel overlooking Piazza di San Cosimato. It is a practical choice for participants who want to stay close to the streets, cafés and daily life of Trastevere.

Trastevere Roma | UNA Esperienze

A modern four-star hotel with rooms overlooking either the rooftops of Rome or a quiet inner courtyard. The hotel also has a panoramic rooftop restaurant and terrace.

Horti 14 Borgo Trastevere

A stylish hotel beside the Botanical Garden, with 25 rooms, a garden setting and a rooftop area. A good option for participants looking for a quieter and more contemporary place to stay while remaining close to the heart of Trastevere.
