Carnival in Venice. It’s been a dream of mine as a photographer for years to go! So why not the next one?! Call me crazy or call me brilliant to organize something spectacular like this in the midst of winter, but I did it! Only 4 spaces available. FOUR! It’s a spur of the moment...

Spoleto is one of my favorite places to wander indeed. From overlooking city and church, to walking the cobblestone streets and window shopping, there is an endless supply of things to look at in awe. I love getting “lost” in a city…through the commercial shops...

On my very first Follow Your Heart Travel Experience, we went to Italy. And to my delight my father (and mother) joined that trip! My dad is the reason I do a lot of what I do today. No, not cuz he was involved in the process of MAKING me, which is true. But in the reason that it...

Nicole was just getting into photography when she came on our first Travel Experience to Italy in 2010. It was so awesome to see her capture the world around her as we traveled through the rolling hills of Tuscany and wandered the medieval towns of Umbria. I follow her today on...
