Street Photography workshop
In this immersive course, our goal is to introduce you to street photography and help you become a creative and confident photographer through practice.

During the workshop there will be a brief introduction to street photography and you will learn some useful tips to elevate your skills. We will also discuss what we can learn from looking at the work of renowned photographers.

We will then stroll through the historic city of York, capturing images to put our learning into practice. Following this, we will review and discuss our images helping you refine your techniques.

Beyond simply capturing random street scenes, you'll learn how to create eye-catching and distinctive images that tell stories, conveying emotions and narratives.
