Live in a medieval manor house during a four-day intensive photography workshop in Fontevraud where you work with experts and participate in a photo shoot. Following your homestay, return to Paris to create a photography exhibition. Classes in technique deepen your mastery of light, ambience, and storyline. Explore the colorful neighborhoods of Paris equipped with your camera and French language skills, then join your group to develop the images that tell the story of your Paris exploration. Your journey culminates with an exhibition of your work in southern Paris.
