Rome is one of the most incredible cities in the world!
We'll be strolling through the historic center of Rome taking photos of people and ancient architecture. Hungry?
We'll stop to eat and drink the thrilling food on every lane.
Why go with us?
Rome isn't clogged with people in Autumn.
Escape and meet new friends, 4 to 6 people in each workshop.
Discovering how to take photos is a true joy without hordes of humanity blocking your view with selfie sticks.
We'll stroll the streets of Rome learning how to see in a new way.
You'll get one on one hands-on guidance in Light, Composition, Angle, and Timing.
This is for you if you would love to see Italy but don't want to go solo.
This isn't for you if you want to have a daily regimented schedule with no free time to breathe or allow this new dimension to melt into your being. This will ignite your heart and mind and suddenly you'll be seeing in a new way.
You'll come home with remarkable photos that you took with any camera you have (yes you can shoot with your iPhone or android)
Are you lusting for Italy?
The best time to see it is when the crowds get lighter. And the weather is still pleasant.
Guaranteed to be one of the most fun adventures of your life.
And you'll take the best photos you've ever captured with me, a 35-year award winning photographer in Palo Alto, California, the heart of Silicon Valley and worldwide.

We'll go slowly, savoring every view, and falling in love with the romantic Trevi fountain, seeing Michelangelo's Pieta, Vatican City, and walking the cobble-stoned streets of Rome smiling at life and dreaming of our next dinner exploding with love on our lips.
Hi, I'm Mary. I've been leading worldwide photography adventures for 16 years, see video testimony here.
We'll dig deep, learn new photo skills, and enjoy luscious Rome and the seductive Amalfi Coast.
