📍 Venice-Based | Getty Images Photographer | Leica Shooter

Ciao! I’m Marco Secchi, an editorial and travel photographer with over 20 years of experience, currently based in Venice and Budapest. I tell stories through images: quiet moments, shifting light, and the everyday poetry that makes Venice unlike anywhere else.

As a Getty Images contributor and photography workshop leader, I offer private 1-to-1 experiences for travellers, creatives, and visual storytellers — whether you're drawn to foggy mornings, blue hour magic, or timeless black-and-white frames.

🗺️ I’ve also created a deeply personal guide to The Real Venice — not a tourist checklist, but a curated experience. It’s about mood, silence, reflections, and the kind of beauty you only notice when you slow down.

With over 200 locations, from secret canals and quiet bridges to authentic bacari and artisan workshops, this guide helps you explore Venice with intention. 📸 If you’re a photographer, you’ll find exact coordinates, best light suggestions, and hidden vantage points — ideal for capturing moments most people miss.

✨ Every place in the guide is there because I love it, not because I’m paid to feature it. No commissions, no ads — just honest recommendations from someone who knows the city deeply.

Join me for a workshop or photo walk — or download the guide and start seeing Venice differently.

This is Venice — not just visited, but felt.
