Photography in Italy

Where we photograph - click on a region

With so much inspiration, the problem is not what to shoot but what not to shoot!

We offer two very different landscapes for our photography holidays in Italy.

Our photography trips in Tuscany are based in San Quirico d'Orcia, in the heart of Southern Tuscany. This is quintessential Tuscany; the view from our hotel is that of the famous Belvedere, one of Tuscany's most iconic images.

The village of San Quirico offers plenty more inspiration right on our doorstep and then it's only a short journey to other photographically rich locations such as the hilltops towns of Montalcino, Montepulciano and the stunning abbey of Sant Antimo.

At every turn there is yet another picture crying out to be taken; a green hilltop simply defined with a lone cypress, a crumbling palazzo, the evening skyline of a medieval hilltop town, an elderly couple working their garden or quietly snoozing in the shade of an olive grove - I could go on and on..!

Our photography holidays in Abruzzo take us to the high mountains of the Appenines. This is Italy's primary National Park, and home to the brown bear, lynx, chamois and wolf.

We will not only walk and photograph amidst this grand wilderness, but also within the intimate streets of the many medieval villages that abound.

Our hotel is set beside a lake so there is no shortage of reflections and hotel manager, an ex singer, is usually ready for the odd and slightly raucous, late evening!
