About this Adventure
Dotan grew up in Paris. This is your chance to discover his favorite areas and let him share the history, culture, and culinary treasures the French capital has to offer.
From a central and festive 4-star hotel located in the Latin Quarter, part of the historical center of Paris, we will be exploring the Paris of Parisians. Our photography curriculum will concentrate on street and travel photography. Gail will infuse into this photographic exploration a healthy dose of story telling to help you weave your images into an impactful, properly sequenced reportage. The itinerary is designed to take you off the beaten path, deep into the Paris of Parisians. All meals will be included with a carefully curated array of French cuisines and delicacies. We will be dining at some of Dotan's favorite Parisian restaurants. Everyone’s best images from the workshop will be included in a book that Gail and Dotan will craft and make available to participants afterwards.
