This was my second small group workshop and it didn’t disappoint. In crowded National Parks, once again, Vieri showed the high level of preparation and planning that goes into each workshop as went to incredible locations not as common in the park. And those famous locations? Vieri found his own path to explore them with fewer people (often none) and better photographic opportunities. Educational, fun, well executed and a wonderful way to explore and photograph the many unique landscapes in Death Valley. I look forward to my next workshop!
I started exploring and photographing the Southwest USA in 2010, during the one-month trip that inspired me to become a professional landscape photographer, and I have been back many times since. Few areas around the World offer such a number of incredible locations so relatively close together, all iconic and visually powerful. Few areas of the world have been immortalised in movies and photographs to such an extent and yet are still full of undiscovered locations and places where you can photograph incredible, otherworldly landscapes and be by yourself for hundreds of miles on end. Since my first visit, the Southwest USA’s landscapes got an indelible place in my heart, and every time I go back my soul feels right where it belongs.
After running 6 Workshops in The Southwest USA, in 2025 we retired this Workshop to dedicate our energies to exploring and adding new amazing destinations and locations.
Designing your Southwest USA Photography Workshop, leveraging on over a decade of experience leading more than 110 Workshops, 6 of which in the Southwest USA, I focussed on the challenging task of creating new interpretations of these iconic locations that we all know and love, adding to our comprehensive Portfolio of locations some much less known ones, places where almost anybody ever goes but are equally as amazing.
