ANALOG INSIGHT ONLINE
The Camera and Attention to Observation

1-3 persons   •   per part 2 meetings   •   meetings are set individually   •   English / German

Something catches your sight and you take a picture. What do you look at? What do you see in it?

Learn how to see the way your camera does and learn how to help your camera capture what is in your eyes.
Analog photography means taking the time for this.

In this personalized online workshop we will look into the basics of analog photography and put theory to practice by photographing indoors and/or outdoors.

This workshop is also available in person at the Atelier in Berlin.
If you have any questions, would like some consultation, or want to sign up contact me!
This online workshop is a great fit for you if:

  • analog photography is totally new for you and you want to embark on the journey with a solid base that includes theory along with practice (if you prefer to dive into practice with minimum theory, check out Analog Impressions Online).  
  • you already have a little knowledge or experience and would like to solidify or deepen your understanding and your experience with the different aspects of photographing. In this case topics from different parts can be combined. 

WORKSHOP CONTENT

This online workshop in three parts is conceived to give you a rounded and whole experience.
You can also book any one of the parts separately.

If you already have some previous knowledge, the contents of the parts can be adjusted accordingly. Let me also know if there is any particular topic you’d like to learn that is not listed. 

Contact me if you’d like some consultation as to what fits best for you.

You will receive the course notes as PDF from me, so that you can go back to them any time later on.
