Photography workshop

Become an expert in photography too!

The main purpose of the workshop is to learn the fundamental techniques of photography with a greater emphasis on recording and storytelling as well as the portrait. After being taught fundamental rules that make up a powerful photograph, children will be trained to create a photo-story by writing short descriptive captions. They will become familiar with photographing people (street photography) and finally they will set up a workshop with a photo booth, so that people in the city can come to be photographed.

Where and when?

The workshop will take place in Pyrgos from December 2 to 6, 2024, from 11:00 AM to 14:00
