A travel photography retreat with Beth Ruggiero-York

Capture the 'essence of place' in the Dordogne region of southern France staying in Marouatte Castle and exploring the charming medieval towns, castles, gardens, and surrounding countryside. Our castle home during this week-long workshop is set on 270 beautiful acres that offer endless photo opportunities.
Our week will consist of day trips to the surrounding towns, castles, monasteries, markets and countryside, photographing around the castle and its grounds, including the full Moon rising over the castle on October 13th and the Milky Way on October 17th, classroom sessions and critiques, and fabulous meals at the castle or in the towns we visit.
You will fly into Paris and take the bullet train to the local train station, where you will be met by castle staff.
