"As many of you already know, my trip to Cuba in October was amazing. Spending time with women I love and discovering a place with Adria who is so in tune with the Cuban people was a memory making experience. If you are considering going to Cuba, see it through this woman's eye's. The intimacy you will achieve is far more touching than with an ordinary tour guide.”

Going to Cuba with Adria is nothing like going to class, rather you are somewhere with a dear friend that just happens to know the people, places and things all around you. Her teaching feels like you are being let in on something so accessible and useful, you wonder and wish you’d known it on the last five trips you’ve taken. The learning done isn’t just about your phone either, it’s about Cuba, Cubans, and as a result, yourself. Just go.

“Adria is an amazing guide and teacher. Her eye is superb, her instincts are spot on, her warmth genuine. If you want to really SEE Havana - the colors, the streets, the architecture, but most of all the people - join Adria Ellis. Because the Cuban people are in her heart, she makes it easy to engage with iOS Cubanos in the most extraordinary ways. Not only did I learn an amazing amount about iphoneography from Adria, but I learned to see in a bigger and better way.”

"Why on Earth would you want to go to Cuba for an iPhone photography class? The excellent food! The weather! Beautiful scenery, beautiful kind people, being outside in the sunshine every day. A casual but productive learning environment. Adria! Who leads you from where ever you are to the next level. A true learning experience where the learning is never strenuous and never stops. The mojitos! The culture? Did I mention the food?

"This past October I spent a fantastic week in Havana with a wonderful group of women. We were led through the city's streets (and through Vinales / tobacco farmland for one day) Adria is an amazing street photo-grapher. I can't imagine a better way to explore one of the most interesting cities in the world. If you are at all interested in photography and Havana, Cuba, you should seriously consider Joining Adria on her next Havana Adventure."

"Me and João, my husband, visited Cuba for 3 times since the late nineties. We decided to join Adria's was because we were curious to come back to the country with someone that could share her experience. And it was great in all senses: we learned a lot about photography, about apps, but above all it was her knowledge of the country, the way she moves in Havana, the way she talks with local people that made the difference. We highly recommend this experience because it is SO special! Don't miss the next opportunity".

"Adria is the best photography teacher I have ever had. She's so passionate that it gives all of her instruction energy and gets you more excited about photography. In one day she helped me get comfortable with editing pictures as well as taking drastically better pictures on my phone. Because of her I have taken some of the best pictures of my life.”

I cannot say enough about how wonderful this experience was for me. Adria is an amazing photographer, a fabulous guide and a wonderful human. If Havana is on your bucket list, GO!

"Got me out of my comfort zone with photography and interacting with local people. Adria has a gift with a camera and a gift with people, if you want to take better pictures with your iPhone you should go to Cuba with her - it was awesome!"

“If you have even the slightest desire to travel to Cuba and/or to practice your street photography, I suggest you sign up with my friend Adria Ellis for one of her photo workshops in Havana. You'll thank me later.”

"I learned things about iPhone apps I had no clue about. Adria has great suggestions for angles, light, and ways to shoot on the streets I hadn't thought of. Adria got skills! I highly recommend this trip!”

"I absolutely LOVED this experience and the way you treated everyone and the way you taught us so many techniques! I also appreciated the fact, you gave us and allowed us all freedom to move at our own pace or go on our own whenever we wanted to break free. You are an amazing teacher, and woman, and photographer!"
