Join Colby Brown on this incredible Cuba photography workshop adventure of a lifetime. Located in the heart of the Caribbean, Cuba is an island paradise that has eluded many US-based travelers over the years. It is here that you will find a large variety of unique and engaging photo experiences that are nearly impossible to come by in any other country. From the classic cars of Havana to capturing the mountainous region of Vinales to walking the cobblestone streets of the Trinidad (a world UNESCO site)…Cuba is truly a photographers paradise. With the recent US Government changes to the VISA process for US citizens, my team is here to help you secure your VISA so that you can join this incredible adventure.
When it comes to travel destinations, Cuba is currently one of the most popular countries for travel photographers worldwide. While the local landscapes are beautiful, it is the Cuban people that make the country so unique. Throughout our time in Cuba, you will find plenty of opportunities to talk with and engage with Cubans (we will help translate as necessary) as we explore all that the country has to offer. On this trip of a lifetime, we will spend our time traveling between three main cities: Havana, Vinales, and Trinidad. While Havana offers incredible opportunities to photograph classic cars, city skylines and the amazing people that call it home, Vinales takes us into a mountainous region of Cuba where we will dedicate some of our time to the tobacco farms and farmers that inhabit the valleys. Last but not least, we have the picturesque city of Trinidad. With its colorful buildings, cobblestone streets and proximity to a variety of amazing experiences with some Cuban cowboys.
Throughout your Cuba photo workshop, we will be staying at local Casas rather than the government-run hotels. This not only provides us with a much more intimate experience as we interact and engage with local families each day, but it is one of the few ways where we can make sure that the money we spend in Cuba goes to the families that need it. Also, while your workshop tuition covers Breakfasts and Dinners, there will be times when you have free time to explore during the middle of the day, where you will then be responsible for purchasing your lunches.
At the end of the day, Cuba is one of the safest and most photogenic countries in the world, and I look forward to having you join us for an incredible island adventure that you will never forget!
