What to expect
Expect a practical lesson, not a lecture. Giulio walks you through actual scenes—piazzas, alleyways, markets—stopping to break down why a moment works or how to position yourself for better light. You'll shoot continuously, getting immediate critique on framing, exposure, and the harder part: the nerve to point a lens at strangers without flinching. He'll demo techniques, then watch you apply them, adjusting your settings and suggesting angles. By the end, you'll have a folder of your own work and a clearer sense of what street photography actually demands.
