About Paris Travel Photography Workshop Program

Join Travel For Teens on a 7-day immersive photography program in Paris, where you'll explore one of the world's most photogenic cities while developing your skills under the guidance of professional photographers. Whether you're a beginner learning to think like a pro or an experienced DSLR shooter looking to refine your craft, this program divides participants by skill level to ensure personalized instruction and meaningful growth.

You'll spend your days mastering photography fundamentals including composition, lighting, ISO, shutter speed, and aperture adjustments. Daily photo challenges and critiques from expert instructors will push you to capture stunning urban scenes, portraits, and landscapes across Paris's most iconic and hidden locations. The program emphasizes learning to see light in all conditions—from bright daylight to low-light indoor settings and nighttime photography—so you can apply these skills anywhere in the world.

Beyond the camera, you'll experience Paris like a local. Bike through hidden back streets with a local guide, explore the Louvre and its masterpieces, visit the Palace of Versailles and its Hall of Mirrors, climb to the artistic heights of Montmartre, and descend into the historic Catacombs. You'll enjoy authentic French experiences: fondue in the Latin Quarter, escargot at classic bistros, crêpes along the Seine, and visits to spots where Van Gogh, Picasso, and the film Amèlie came to life.

Accommodations are carefully selected 3-star hotels in safe, centrally-located neighborhoods within walking distance of major attractions—small, family-run establishments where staff build personal relationships with guests, not impersonal chain hotels. Your tuition includes all ground transportation, meals (breakfast and dinner daily), accommodations, professional guides and chaperones, and program activities. You'll return home with a personally reviewed portfolio of excellent images that capture the essence of the City of Light and showcase your growth as a photographer.

This program is ideal for high school students (grades 9-12) from around the world who want to combine cultural immersion, skill development, and artistic growth in one unforgettable summer experience.
