Frequently asked questions

Are the workshops suitable for children?

Some are. The Gel Plate Printing for Kids workshop is built for families and welcomes younger children alongside a parent. The other sessions use photographic chemistry and fine handwork, so they suit older teens and adults. If you are booking for a family, the kids workshop is the one to choose.
None at all. Leo guides you through every step by hand, and each workshop is built for complete beginners as much as for keen photographers. You bring the curiosity, he brings twenty years at the bench.
The piece you make yourself, finished and ready to keep. Depending on the workshop that is your own print, emulsion lift, or cyanotype, made by your hands in Leo’s studio. You leave with the work and with a process you will recognise anywhere afterwards.

See Tuscany through a different lens

These workshops go beyond taking photos. With local guidance, creative practice, and carefully chosen settings, each session becomes a personal way to observe, understand, and capture Tuscany.
