Bella Guatemala Photography Tours for 2018

 

Bella Guatemala Travel is launching a new series of photography tours in Guatemala led by editorial travel photographer Brent Winebrenner. Tours will run March 24-April 2, Oct. 27-Nov. 8, and Dec. 1-10, 2018.

The tour aims to help guests improve their visual storytelling abilities and develop their photography skills to capture beautiful and timeless pictures. Photo opportunities will include colonial architecture, street life in Antigua, the Mayan market town of Chichicastenango, indigenous life and culture in Quetzaltenango, and the surrounding countryside for views and landscape photography.

Each day, photo lectures and skill building exercises will be held in order to reframe the way travelers see and tell a story through pictures and improve the way they work in the field. The tour will also include one-on-one critiques, peer reviews, and question and answer sessions to give guests an extensive, personalized learning experience.

Bella Guatemala Travel’s guides will work together with Winebrenner to provide context to the photography sessions by explaining the history and culture of the locations on the tour.

Brent Winebrenner is a professional travel and location photographer and videographer with experience in over 65 countries. He has taught editorial photography and location lighting in the Visual Journalism Department at the Brooks Institute. His work has appeared on many publications, including The Splendor of Cuba, an exhaustive survey of Cuban architecture by Rizzoli Publications.
