WHO'S BEHIND

My name is Alessandro Di Modica, I was born in 1992 and I am originally from Camerino, a small village in the heart of the Marche region.

Since I was a child I have always been passionate about mountains and photography. In these years, I have become more and more passionate and immersed myself in nature in order to take shots in the most fascinating places in central Italy and beyond.

As time passed, this passion became a need, and I finally transformed it into a job. My goal is to make you fall in love with the places that I will show you and that I myself have fallen in love with.

Wildlife is becoming an increasingly part of my life, so much so that I trained professionally in this very stimulating sector, and I undertook business trips to Europe to immortalise the most interesting animals to photograph.

I'm always looking for new ideas, and places where I can create new content, in any type of season. I'm always looking for new ideas and places to create new content, whatever the season. My main goal is to help you fully experience the world of wildlife, drawing on my field experience and respect for nature and the animals we photograph.

Excellent one-week lynx and raptor observation course in Spain. The animals were observed in good conditions and the group atmosphere was very good.

Die «Wild Spain» Fotoreise war meine erste überhaupt. Denn ich wollte unbedingt die seltenen und extrem schönen Iberischen Luchse sehen und fotografieren. Dieser Wunsch wurde bereits in den ersten Tagen mehr als erfüllt! Verschiedene hübsche Singvögel haben Wartezeiten im Hide überbrückt. Die Unterkunft war recht einfach, dafür aber nur ein paar Schritte vom Hide entfernt. Am zweiten Standort war das Hotel sehr viel besser, dafür mussten wir einige Minuten zu den kleinen Hides fahren um verschiedene Greifvögel aus kurzer Distanz zu fotografieren. Milane, Steinadler und sogar Geier haben ihre Flugshows direkt vor der Linse aufgeführt! Das Vesprechen, all diese Tiere fotografieren zu können, wurde zu 100 % erfüllt! Gefallen hat mir insbesondere der Humor der Teilnehmer, der Fokus auf das gemeinsame Hobby und die Disziplin in den Hides. Sich mit einer fast nur italienisch sprechenden Gruppe zu verständigen war zwar nicht ganz einfach. Mit einem Mix aus verschiedenen Sprachen ist es aber doch ziemlich gut gelungen. Es war sicher nicht meine letzte Fotoreise – und ich suche bereits jetzt nach weiteren Reisezielen. Dabei ist mir aufgefallen, dass die Wild Spain-Tour eher ein günstiges Angebot ist – und absolut preiswert.

The "Wild Spain" photo tour was my very first. I was determined to see and photograph the rare and incredibly beautiful Iberian lynx. This wish was more than fulfilled in the first few days! Various pretty songbirds kept me entertained while waiting in the hide. The accommodation was quite basic, but only a few steps from the hide. At the second location, the hotel was much nicer, but we had to drive a few minutes to the small hides to photograph various birds of prey at close range. Kites, golden eagles, and even vultures performed their aerial displays right in front of the lens! The promise of being able to photograph all these animals was 100% fulfilled! I particularly enjoyed the participants' sense of humor, their focus on their shared hobby, and the discipline shown in the hides. Communicating with a group that spoke almost exclusively Italian wasn't always easy. However, with a mix of different languages, we managed quite well. This certainly won't be my last photo tour – and I'm already looking for other destinations. I noticed that the Wild Spain tour is a rather inexpensive option – and absolutely good value for money.

Ho partecipato al workshop 'Abruzzo selvaggio' ed è stata un'esperienza unica e inaspettatamente sorprendente. Grazie ad Alessandro ho avuto l'opportunità di vedere e fotografare animali meravigliosi come volpi e cervi; è stato bello condividere giorni fuori dall'ordinario con tutti i partecipanti del gruppo, immersi nella bellissima natura abruzzese. Alessandro non fa solo splendide fotografie, ma è anche un grande professionista: assistenza tecnica, disponibilità, affidabilità, gentilezza e suggerimenti utili sono garantiti; ha la capacità, inoltre, di trasmettere passione e amore per la Natura e la Fotografia, sono tornata a casa con la voglia di riprovare a scattare per la Wildlife. Consiglio a tutti un workshop con lui.

I participated in the "Wild Abruzzo" workshop and it was a unique and unexpectedly surprising experience. Thanks to Alessandro, I had the opportunity to see and photograph wonderful animals like foxes and deer; it was wonderful to share these extraordinary days with everyone in the group, immersed in the beautiful Abruzzo nature. Alessandro not only takes splendid photographs, but is also a true professional: technical assistance, availability, reliability, kindness, and helpful tips are guaranteed. He also has the ability to convey a passion and love for nature and photography; I came home eager to try wildlife photography again. I recommend a workshop with him to everyone.

Mi sono trovato molto bene con Alessandro, la sua conoscenza del luogo mi ha permesso di portare a casa tante emozioni e tante belle foto, mi ha dato ottimi consigli su come usare meglio la mia atrezzatura e anche per la postproduzione. Mi sarebbe piaciuto essere in un gruppo più "allenato" alla montagna, in questo modo avremmo perso meno tempo negli spostamenti a piedi ma questo non dipende ovviamente da Alessandro. Detto ciò posso ritenermi più che soddisfatto, mi porto a casa una bellissima esperienza e tanti bei ricordi, grazie mille.

I had a great time with Alessandro. His knowledge of the area allowed me to take home so many emotions and so many beautiful photos. He gave me excellent advice on how to best use my equipment and also on post-production. I would have liked to be in a group more "trained" in the mountains, so we would have wasted less time walking, but that obviously isn't Alessandro's fault. That said, I can be more than satisfied. I'm taking home a wonderful experience and so many wonderful memories. Thank you so much.
