An exceptional experience - Our morning session with Marco was exceptional. Not only is he extremely knowledgeable but also he is a very good teacher. He took us to several spots around Rome where we could practice taking pictures and he would critique them and offer suggestions on how to take a better photo. A very enjoyable day with a very nice man.

Sunrise photography in Rome - Marco was extremely professional and passionate about photography and passing on his expertise. He spent time getting to know exactly what I was interested in learning and taught me how to utilize my camera settings to improve the focus, clarity and composition of my images. He provided an honest critique of the images, the techniques I had under control and those that would improve with time and practice. I highly recommend Marco if you are interested in learning about photography in an unforgettable setting.

Amazing Photo Tour with Marco! - My wife and I had a fantastic photography tour in Rome with Marco. He is very experienced and knowledgeable in photography and photographic techniques. I was shooting medium format with a Fujiflim GFX 100S and my wife was shooting with her phone camera (Samsung Note 9). Marco taught my wife how to better utilize her phone camera as well as improve her photographic compositions and techniques. He helped me understand some of the unique aspects of shooting with medium format. We did the combined day and night photo tour, and we highly recommend that tour so you can practice your techniques during the day to be prepared to take some beautiful photos at blue hour and nighttime. Marco has lived nearly his whole life in Rome, so he knows some great locations for photos that tourists will never know about. We give Marco our highest recommendation!

Good time and great photos - Marco was full of professional tips that have improved my photography. We spent time with him on a very cold day, yet had so much fun going to the places he shared with us. He told us about Gigetto, a wonderful eatery where we had a delicious lunch (the fried artichokes are amazing).

A generous teacher, willing to share all his photographic knowledge - Beforehand, Marco asked me what I wanted to learn and what type of places I would like to photograph. He then planned a wonderful individualized itinerary that allowed me to achieve my goals for the day. Marco is a great teacher, repeating certain principles which helped me to evaluate every subject as a photographer rather than as a picture-taking tourist. I therefore learned a great deal about the aesthetic as well as the technical side of photography. Marco is also a very generous teacher, not holding back knowledge as he said some of his teachers had done. Finally, Marco is a very amiable person, easy to get along with. He was attentive to my personal needs, helping me to look for my lost glasses and taking me to a money exchange with a great exchange rate. He did everything to make my day profitable and enjoyable, and I came away eager to take another photo tour with him. Thanks Marco!

Amazing Opportunity to Learn the Language of Photography in Rome - Marco brings an intensity and professionalism I would expect from a college professor. His English is excellent and he knows where to go throughout the city in any time of the day to get great photographs. I'm looking forward to my next class with him.

Must-do in Rome for a photographer! - I'm so happy I found Marco's workshop, it was a highlight of my Rome experience. Marco is very thoughtful, he personalizes the experience to meet all your needs and expectations and perhaps even overcome them, like in my case - I was shooting with my film camera so I didn't know the results until I got home and developed the film and I absolutely love it. He is a professional who knows photography craft and understands it on many levels. We had a great conversation and time flew! I definitely recommend to take a private tour with Marco, next time I'm in Italy I'll do it again!
