Overview
Cairo - 3 - 7 May
We begin in Cairo, where history and modernity converge. We’ll spend our first four days photographing in and around this storied city that absolutely pulsates with life. From our base in Zamalek, a centrally located island-neighborhood on the west bank of the Nile River, we’ll set out each day.
Our itinerary in Cairo includes a deep dive into distinct and ancient regions of the city, including the Coptic and Islamic quarters; Downtown and Tahriri Square—which also includes the monumental Egyptian museum; and Zamalek itself, a vibrant and architecturally significant neighborhood. In Zamalek, we’ll have the unique opportunity to spend time with Tintera, Egypt’s first and only gallery devoted to photography. We will have an exclusive and intimate evening with the photographers and gallery director, who will make a presentation just for us. We’ll also see Cairo from the Nile, as we set sail on a Felucca in the late afternoon.
Each day we’ll have time to discuss, sequence and edit work, create books for those who wish, and discuss all things photography. Our home base will be a beautiful and centrally-located four star hotel with vast, lush outdoor space, and a pool.

We'll spend four nights at a hotel in Zamalek, Cairo

Egypt - 3 - 11 May
This workshop will be a transformative experience, creatively and culturally. Participants will spend time exploring and shooting urban and desert environments in these two extraordinary countries.
Dan and I will guide you in shooting a variety of subjects and locations through assignments focusing on intent, technique and composition.
With us you have access to two working artists and educators, with decades of experience in long form and single-image story telling. Hands-on personalized instruction as well as private and group reviews will significantly expand your creative skills. We also discuss individual focus/creative intent during the workshop, as well as steps to take once it’s over.
This workshop is open to serious amateurs and professional photographers only. Working knowledge of editing programs such as Photoshop, Bridge or Lightroom is required to attend. This will be a customized experience limited to a small group of students. We’ll ask interested participants to submit a portfolio of images.
​
Wide Angle’s philosophy is to provide deep creative and cultural experiences in historically significant countries.

Tirana
The capital, with a population of over half a million and growing more cosmopolitan with new restaurants, shops, and galleries joining the almost surrealist pastiche of testaments to the city’s past. Here, eras collide. We’ll visit Skanderbeg Square, recently renovated with new fountains and rosy granite paving, and home to an 18th-century mosque and minaret, a domed Albanian Orthodox church, a set of government buildings that echo the fascist architecture of Mussolini’s Italy and a Brutalist monolith that houses the National Historical Museum. We'll see the newly opened Secret Surveillance Museum and Bunk’Art, Dictator Hoxha’s five-story underground nuclear bunker.
We’ll spend the first two nights at the centrally located Rogner, an extremely comfortable hotel with a pool and spa.
