As a full time photojournalist my images appears on a regular basis on top newspaper and magazine from around the world. At the same time I have many books published some with just my work other that include my images; like many Lonely Planet Guides (including Venice) from Religions to Social unrest from Justin Bieber to Michael Buble, from Prime Ministers to Leaders of the opposition or Pope! My official website is here.



My links with Venice goes back a long time so I know streets, bridges, calli and churches but more importantly I know the soul and life of this city that will try to pass to you during our Venice photo walk tour. My Venice photo walk tour is a full immersion in the REAL Venice.



During my Venice Photographic Walk I will point out details invisible to the untrained eye and reveal the best vantage-points on your chosen route, as only a Venetian will be able to do. Learn to tell a story through images, take great shots of iconic monuments and capture atmospheric images off the beaten track.

Touring Venice can be a very exciting experience, but it can also be quite an adventure if you are unsure of which places to visit and how.
