What Happens On Photography Workshops?

Charlie has been based in the beautiful area of Cortona for 15 years and is enviably well-connected with restauranteurs, hoteliers, aristocrats, winemakers and the contadini (farmers) nearby. Her wealth of connections has allowed her and Lillie to organise the ultimate photography holiday in Cortona.

The five-day photography workshop Italy includes four morning sessions focusing on composition and camera mechanics. However, the afternoons are for exploring and using your new skills to capture the beauty of the area.

During the workshops Lillie will cover:

• The exposure triangle: aperture, shutter and ISO. This will teach you to take great photos while understanding camera exposure.
• The functions on your camera and how to use them: Lillie will work with you to understand your own camera and encourage you to use different settings for different types of shot.
• Composition ideas and rules: Every day of the photography holiday in Cortona Lillie will look into famous photographers work to inspire you to go out and capture beautiful images. Assessing others work will help you to master the rules of composition in each type of photography.
• Where to look for light and how to make it: You will be taught how to control light in the camera using aperture, shutter speed and ISO. Lillie will explain how to use direct light, indirect light and shade to your advantage.
• How to create scenes that take your work to the next level: Afternoons will be spent with Lillie guiding you and the other students as you practice enhanced skills in the beautiful Tuscan setting.
