"Who am I? Well, as a photographer it is never about me, but about you.
However, I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself.
They are Jeroen Noordzij, a wedding, fashion and portrait photographer working all over the world. From a wedding on a beautiful island near Cambodia to an editorial in the crowded streets of New York".
"Together with you as a client, my goal is to document your wedding, brand or editorial in the purest, most unique and stylish way. My work can best be described as timeless and elegant, with the ability to capture raw, unfiltered emotions.
What started as a dream is now home. It started with a small holiday at Borgo Del Balsamico and quickly turned into a photo opportunity that ended with a fantastic publication in Vogue Living. I am the second after Gabriele Balsilico to have taken a photo of Mr Crotti... the most difficult and private part of the family."

In a three-day workshop from 28-30 March, we will immerse ourselves in the art of lifestyle photography. Together, we will explore the magic of using light as a companion to create extraordinary visual stories, from capturing authentic moments to mastering the technical side of editing. But we won't stop there: we'll also talk about how to set goals, pursue your dreams as a photographer and dive into the world of marketing to help you share your unique vision with the world.
Over these three days, we will get lost in the enchanting gardens of Borgo Del Balsamico, drive through the rolling hills of Italy to capture the glow of a sunset picnic, and visit a beautiful ancient Italian city to complete the story. This is more than a workshop; it is an unforgettable journey into the heart of photography, storytelling and connection.

Betty Soldi Studio is a design and calligraphy agency with consultancy projects ranging from packaging to brand content, from creative thinking to art direction.
Situated in the heart of Florence, Italy, Betty Soldi's unique and original calligraphic style combines a heritage of design references with modern intellect for emotionally compelling branding, graphic design communication, lifestyle objects, stationery and creative collaborations, engaging like-minded collaborators for customised designs and sensory 'ink experiences'.
"Vinegar production, like handwriting, is an alchemical process.
From raw material, bacteria and little more, with time, care and experience you get a wonderful liquid, a perfect example of balance of flavours.
Thus writing transforms invisible thoughts into visible words by passing from our heads through our hands to write at heart level.
Betty Soldi Studio in collaboration with Balsamico's Borgo offers a calligraphic Inksperience dedicated to the importance of time and inner transformation through handwritten words.
The workshop will be divided into two parts, the first aimed at rediscovering familiarity with the gesture of writing and all its nuances.
The second, after a visit to the vinegar factory The Borgo, will focus on personal transformation and the importance of nurturing one's inner self to let our creative side blossom.
It is only through our attention to the passage of time and our ability to grasp and notice the elements around us that we are able to transmute and flourish the wonderful raw material that resides within each of us."

Steffi Bauer is an illustrator and textile designer from Munich.
Her greatest inspiration are plants, which grow in her studio and all around her.
She applies her artwork and illustrations to many different contexts and media, such as packaging, wallpapers, magazines and textiles.
While he works with a variety of techniques, his most common technique is to combine fragile black lines with coloured surfaces and always a hint of natural accidents.
Â
Steffi discovered Balsamico's Borgo and met Cristina a few years ago: she came for a long stay for inspiration.
After a while, Cristina asked Steffi to design the new Satin bottle decoration and thus 'Dalia' was born.
Dalia is one of Cristina's favourite flowers and Steffi was perfect in this.
Satin Dalia is one of the most romantic packages in the Borgo range.
We have a surprise for you that we cannot tell you about yet, you will find out during the workshop
