Photography in the Dolomites Wonderland
bar
The Dolomites of northern Italy are among the most breathtaking mountain ranges in the world, offering dramatic peaks, rolling meadows, and charming alpine villages. While they are spectacular year-round, October is without a doubt one of the best times to photograph this region. The fall colors paint the larch trees in glowing shades of gold and orange, and the air often carries mist and fog, creating the kind of atmosphere that landscape photographers dream of. Even better, October brings fewer crowds compared to the busy summer months of July and August, allowing for a more peaceful and immersive experience.
Accessing The Best Locations
One of the wonderful things about photographing in the Dolomites is that many of the most scenic spots are easily accessible without strenuous hikes. Beautiful alpine lakes, sweeping valleys, and panoramic viewpoints can be reached within minutes from the car, making it possible to spend more time behind the camera and less time on the trail. This is especially appealing for those who want to capture stunning landscapes without long or challenging climbs.

Horses in Dolomites NP
This past year, I discovered a few locations where horses roam freely against the dramatic backdrop of jagged peaks. Horses grazing in alpine meadows, especially at sunrise or sunset when the light is soft and golden, add an incredible sense of scale and story to photographs. These moments—majestic animals in front of towering mountains—are often among the most memorable images one can bring home from the Dolomites.

Experiencing and Photographing Dolomites
When I design my Dolomites Photography Workshops, I keep accessibility and comfort in mind. Many of my clients are retired, and I want everyone to feel at ease while still experiencing the thrill of photographing these world-class landscapes. We'll stay in comfortable accommodations, enjoy good meals, and I'll take you to the best spots at the best times of day for light and atmosphere.
