June 6 - 11, 2027

Experience Tuscany through two of its greatest traditions, beautiful art and exceptional wine. Join award-winning photographer Randy Van Duinen and wine expert Thaddeus Buggs for an unforgettable journey through the rolling landscapes, vineyards, medieval hill towns, and historic architecture of one of Italy’s most beautiful regions.

​

Our photography will be planned around the best light of the day, with early morning and evening shoots throughout the Tuscan countryside. We’ll photograph cypress-lined roads, vineyards, ancient villages, historic landmarks, and the classic landscapes of the Val d’Orcia while Randy provides hands-on instruction in composition, technique, and creating stronger travel and landscape images.

​

During the day, we’ll turn our attention to Tuscany’s celebrated wine culture with two winery visits and tastings each day. Thaddeus will guide us through the wines, winemaking traditions, and characteristics of the regions we visit, from Brunello di Montalcino and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano to the wines of Chianti. Along the way, we’ll experience the food, history, and relaxed pace that make Tuscany such a special destination.

​

Limited to just 12 participants, Tuscany Uncorked is designed to be more than a photography workshop or wine tour. It’s a small-group experience combining photography, wine, food, culture, and time spent exploring Tuscany with two instructors who bring different areas of expertise to the journey. A pre-workshop online meeting will help you prepare, while a post-workshop session will focus on image processing, image review, and your photography questions.
