Testimonies
I’ve been to a number of photo workshops. I have to say that the hours my wife and I spent with Angelo were the most valuable by far. We employed the techniques we learned from him during the rest of our trip and captured images we were truly excited about. We were uncomfortable with street photography but now it is one of our favorite pursuits. Plus, he is very patient and helpful, and we also had a lot of fun.
Great guy—great workshop. Highly recommended!
Richard
It was my first exposure to street photography and Angelo masters this discipline. It really gives a new dimension to my work. Will never look through my lens the same way again. Really enjoyed it. Worth every penny.
Thibault Van Stratum
This was not only a great workshop but also a lot of fun working the streets of Lisbon with Angelo. He’s not just a great creative/artistic photographer with deep experience but also a master of the craft of street photography. His one hour intro was a guide and review about camera basics but reinforced for the workshop ahead with pointers on how to hold the camera and resetting shutter speed etc as you move from sun to shade to open areas to narrow streets. Angelo pulls up demonstrative photos from his laptop to emphasize some of the points. Then he leads you into the street and you see the master at work! He makes it all look easy an inspires you to “I can do that” level of confidence and forget inhibitions. I enjoyed the whole session which is worth every penny. The debrief and review of the work at the end was very illuminating. Apart from being a great photographer Angelo is also a wonderful ambassador of his city.
Alex Attard
It was a pleasure to take part in the workshop with Angelo. It started off with a small introduction into photography basics.
He was very easy to talk to and made me feel at ease instantly. During the workshop Angelo took me on a guided tour of Lisbon, showing me various spots that he would often use to capture candid photos. He was very generous with his advice and would gladly answer any questions that I asked. Halfway through we stopped for a light lunch and a much needed refreshment break, before continuing on with the tour. We ended the workshop, with Angelo reviewing and editing my photos. I wanted to come away with a better understanding of street photography, so that I could become a better photographer and I feel that it was accomplished. I will definitely be taking Angelo’s advice on board to help improve my photography in the future.

This is a superb workshop for anyone who wants new inspiration or needs a few tricks to get started Angelo is a considerate, unpretentious photographer who will give you a (gentle) push and guide you towards much better pictures. AND he is a great guy to hang out with for four hours. Highly recommended!
