We are a team of working professional photographers. Our field of expertise encompasses many areas in the photography business. We shoot on assignment and personal projects. We shoot editorials, portraits, events, still life, travel, architecture and basically anything from small assignments to commercials. Strangely enough none of us specializes on food photography. It must be because we love to eat it. Some of us are photography teachers, journalists and certified experts.
-
Actually, we don’t have one. Our tours are available every day and at any hour, on your request.
-
Our photo tour groups are very small. Most often it’s going to be you and your photo teacher. Very rarely we will merge small groups if schedule is tight. We never try to build large groups because we like to have a personal approach and to spend time with you and your photography.

We know, your flight can be late, your schedule can change and your plans can go to… Well, don’t worry, we will try to rework our schedule with you. If you have time constraints or we cannot allocate another slot we will do the photo tour all the same. Milan is a fascinating city in the rain too; it is different but nonetheless enchanting. If you’re lucky enough to be in Milan during a snowfall, you’re going to love it!
-
Please ask and we will try to satisfy your request. Since we can be traveling or busy on assignments we don’t know who of us is going to be available on your required dates.
-
Yes it is. As long as you don’t leave your belongings unattended there will be no problems. Our photo tours go through busy and central areas which are well protected by law enforcement. During night photo tours we will be walking in central and well lit areas. We never had a problem.
-
As for the photo gear, you can find specific informations in the ‘Info’ section of each photo tour. Basically, the camera, or smartphone, you are familiar with. Bring a light backpack because there will be some walking. You will need comfortable shoes and clothing, water, warm clothes in the winter and sunscreen and a hat in the summer. For night photo tours a tripod is essential. Please remember to check that your camera is properly working before the beginning of the photo tour, recharge your batteries (bring a spare) and bring as many cards as you need.

Yes. We both do. Correctamundo.
