About this experience
Double exposure photography Florence: walk the city with Leo and capture two moments in one frame
You start at Fatacadabra, where Leo explains the technique. Then you head out.
Double exposure is a photography technique that shoots two images on the same frame: a portrait fused with a street, a building layered over the Arno, two moments in the same photograph. It is not post-production. It is multiple exposure photography Florence visitors rarely try on their own, and it produces results that look both planned and unpredictable at the same time.
Leo leads you on a photo walk Florence through the streets and hidden corners of the city. Along the way he gives you the technical and visual knowledge you need to make the technique work. You choose the subjects. Leo shows you how to think about what you are combining before you press the shutter.
Back at Fatacadabra, you review the images together and choose the strongest ones. Leo helps you post-produce the file to optimize it for printing. This double exposure workshop Florence combines a creative photography Florence session with genuine technical guidance from a working professional at a real craft studio. It is a photography workshop Florence visitors do with someone who has spent 30 years making images professionally.
Leo grew up in Florence, spent over 30 years in Milan as a documentary photographer and educator, and returned in 2018 to open Fatacadabra with his wife, an illustrator. After 25 years of teaching, he makes complex techniques feel immediately accessible.
For anyone looking for unique things to do in Florence with a camera, this photography experience Florence offers one of the most original afternoons in the city.
