Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before booking your spot.

The workshop is designed for beginner and intermediate photographers. If you know how to operate your camera and want to develop your eye for street photography, you'll get the most out of it.

Bring your own camera (DSLR, mirrorless, or bridge). For the best experience, I recommend a 28mm, 35mm, or 50mm lens. If you'd like to try additional focal lengths, feel free to bring them along. Also pack water, sunscreen, and comfortable walking shoes — we'll be on our feet for most of the day.

The 6-hour street photography workshop is $30 USD per person. There are no hidden fees — the price includes guided instruction, real-time feedback, and the final photo review.

Workshops are held in the historic center of Bogotá, every day, from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM. We'll confirm the exact meeting point by email after booking.

Yes. I work in safe, well-known areas of the historic center and know the routes personally. I never work alone and I keep the group together. I'd recommend bringing only essentials and keeping an eye on your gear — same as in any major city.

Absolutely. I offer private sessions for individuals or small groups, and I can tailor the route and focus to your interests and skill level. Reach out through the contact page to discuss options and pricing.

Depending on the intensity, we'll either proceed as planned (rain makes for excellent street photography) or reschedule at no extra cost. I'll notify you at least 12 hours in advance if anything changes.

If a participant is unable to attend the workshop, they are not entitled to a refund. However, they have the following options: Find a replacement to take their spot in the workshop. Request rescheduling to another workshop of equivalent value within the same calendar year, subject to availability.
