Join the Leica Akademie for this weekend Street Photography Masterclass with legendary New York City based photographer Phil Penman.
This weekend workshop will take you on a journey with Phil as he shows you the techniques that go into mastering street photography and how you can begin composing striking images in the street. The practical element of the workshop is an intensive weekend of shooting in the bustling streets of central London. Beginning early in the morning and shooting into the evening, Phil will be sharing stories and experiences and discussing his tips and tricks along the way.
In the classroom-based elements of the workshop, Phil will discuss his working process, from how he selects his equipment to the techniques he uses for post-production editing, how he manages his social media and website and much more. Lastly Phil will take you through the process of creating a fine art photo print from an image you shoot over the weekend.
For those feeling energetic and adventurous, Phil will also host an optional evening shoot on Sunday from 5pm onwards and drinks at a local pub to finish off the weekend.
The workshop is strictly limited to a maximum of 8 participants.

The photo walk element of the workshop requires participants to be capable of walking at least 5 miles each day as a group. Please take your personal ability and wellbeing into consideration before booking.
