“I had always wanted to attend a landscape photo workshop, as a chance to combine the delight of discovering dream places with the possibility of improving as a photographer, learning from professionals. Among several options, I eventually chose SLPW, relying on the solidity of Riccardo Improta, whom I met during one of his many courses. Having an eight-day-experience in Brittany has definitely increased my technical knowledge and my expressive skills. Riccardo is a thoughtful professional, a great connoisseur of incredible locations, a wise planner, and an amazing fellow traveler. I’m going back home satisfied, keeping with me a deep breadth of the Breton landscape, a memory of wonderful group experiences and a desire to plan the next workshop!”

“My SLPW with Riccardo Improta have been special photo and life experiences. You feel carried away with enthusiasm in a group event that was surely educational and entertaining. Riccardo is able to immediately find out every student’s inclination. The high technical competence and a traveler’s spirit he fully shares help everyone improve their way of photographing with a better awareness. In other words, you feel supported and motivated in a growth path where you feel free but directed by a skilled hand to express your potentiality."

“I started travelling with SLPW several years ago, after meeting with Riccardo Improta, my teacher of Technique, Travel and Landscape at the academy. I attended workshops in the green Ireland, in the intriguing Middle East, and in Namibia, the land of a thousand colors. Every time, I grew both from a personal and photographical point of view. I learnt a lot: I was taught to see the light, to be in the right place at the right moment, to be demanding of myself, and at the same time to let loose searching for my purest instinct. During these workshops, I saw and photographed wonderful places; I slept in enchanting settings and made friends with a lot of beautiful people. Surely, this is an experience I suggest everybody does. Riccardo is a pro and an excellent teacher, who can convey his passion to all levels, making it yours too.”
