Majestic mountain peaks

A 7-day photography tour of the incredible Italian Dolomites.

Join me for a fabulous photography tour of the Dolomites. The tour will be based in two separate areas so that we can maximize the photo locations of this beautiful area of northern Italy. The photo opportunities in the autumn and winter months up in the Dolomites include images of high-jagged mountains, misty mornings, vineyards and forests full of colour.

Autumn colours and misty mornings

During October, we start to see the first colours of autumn as well as those beautiful misty mornings. We will endeavour to make the very best of the morning and evening light during the photo tour of the Dolomites.

You will be taken to some of the very best photo locations such as the Alpe di Siusi and Santa Maddelena but I’ll also lead you to explore lesser-known hidden gems, so you can photograph a wide array of classic landscape imagery, from breathtaking landscapes and vineyards to lifestyle and close-up photography.

Winter tours

The photo opportunities in the winter months up in the Dolomites include images of high jagged mountains, frozen lakes, and frozen forests full of snow.

During January, we will have snow-covered mountains and stunning mountain valleys all out our fingertips. We will endeavour to make the very best of the morning and evening light during the photo tour.

You will be taken to some of the very best photo locations and also lead you to explore lesser-known spots, so you can photograph a wide array of classic landscape imagery, from breathtaking landscapes to stunning jagged mountains.

High mountain views

We will use one or two cable cars to get us up high to photograph some of the mountain vistas. These average around 20€ or 30€ for a return trip and are included in the fee. I can assure you that the views are incredible and well worth the ride up.

Our stay is based in four-star and three-star hotel accommodations. The hotels provide us with breakfast in the morning.
