Italy Wedding Photography Workshop at Castello Ceconi

Italy Graphi Studio Workshop

Wedding Photography Workshop Italy

If you’ve been dreaming of building a luxury destination wedding portfolio in Italy — with a real castle backdrop, styled couple shoots, and a finished album you can take home — this is the workshop you’ve been waiting for.

Join us for an unforgettable 4-day wedding photography workshop at Castello Ceconi, set in the stunning Friuli region of Northern Italy, with arrivals and departures via Venice Marco Polo Airport. This experience blends high-end shooting, creative direction, business growth, and wedding album education — finishing with an exclusive GraphiStudio factory visit, where you’ll collect your printed workshop books.

This is designed for photographers who want more than “pretty pictures”. You’ll leave with refined shooting techniques, a stronger luxury portfolio, real-world album knowledge, and the confidence to sell premium products back home.

What makes this Italy workshop different?

A real Italian castle experience

Castello Ceconi gives you the look, feel, and variety of a destination wedding — all in one location. From romantic architecture to elegant interiors and textured outdoor backdrops, it’s the perfect setting for modern, editorial wedding photography.

Models + Hair & Make-up organised for you

To keep things simple and stress-free, models are arranged for the workshop, along with professional hair and make-up, so you can focus purely on creating your best work.

You’ll take home a finished hardback book

You’ll work on two hero images from Tuesday’s shoot and prepare them on Tuesday evening. Those files are sent for printing first thing Wednesday morning, so your hardback book is produced in time for collection on Thursday.

Graphi Studio factory tour + book collection

Thursday includes a behind-the-scenes tour and the moment everyone loves — collecting your finished workshop book(s). It’s a brilliant way to understand premium album production, quality, and what it takes to sell luxury printed products.
