TRANSYLVANIA (Gypsies villages) Dates: September 28 - October 5, 2023

Are you ready for an unforgettable photography adventure in one of the most photogenic countries in the world? Join me on a journey through the unique villages of Transylvania province, focusing on human documentary photography. We will spend extended time in the rural areas, with a focus on special populations that are almost inaccessible to photographers. Our goal is to explore the lives of the Saxon community living in the villages of the area and to follow different populations who specialize in disappearing crafts and professions such as blacksmiths and artisans.

Our tour is tailored efficiently to save unnecessary travel time and is divided into two regions. In each base area, we will stay for Four days and set out each morning to different villages with unique characteristics. To ensure the success of the trip, we will be accompanied by one of the best local photographers in the world, who is an expert in leading photography workshops in special places that few people can access and photograph. Together, we will go out like professional photographers for intensive days of shooting full of experiences and diverse photography opportunities, creating a documentary archive that reflects the human aspect of one province that time has stopped in.

Please note that the group size for this trip is intentionally kept small, limited to just 7 photographers. To secure your place on this extraordinary journey, feel free to contact me today via phone at +972547633932 or email at felixlupa@gmail.com.
