Every shot taken with the pinhole camera is literally unrepeatable: there is no viewfinder or autofocus, just a hole of light that records reality on Fuji instant film. The result is a dreamlike image, blurred at the edges, full of vintage atmosphere — your signature Arezzo postcard. We will walk slowly through medieval squares and hidden alleys; Luca will teach you to read light, choose the frame and calculate the exposure time by hand, transforming photography into an act of meditation. The group of maximum 5 people guarantees space for questions and experimentation. Each participant receives their own set of original prints and a signed pinhole portrait, a souvenir not found elsewhere. No equipment to bring, no skills required: just curiosity and desire to see the world with another time and another look.
