Workshop

Streets of Germany Photowalk/Workshop - Explore. Observe. Photograph.

Join Sebastian for a photowalk and discover your surroundings with new eyes and a fresh perspective. Together, you’ll explore the streets, look for unexpected moments, work with light, composition, color and timing, and learn to see photographic possibilities in everyday situations. A big part of the experience is also getting comfortable photographing in public — approaching strangers, getting closer to the action and overcoming the hesitation that often comes with street photography. There is no fixed pace or formula. The intensity of the walk depends on you: whether you want to take it slow and focus on observation and composition, or push yourself further and become more spontaneous and involved in the environment. Sebastian will share his experience from years of photographing and traveling through very different environments in Asia, Africa and Europe, while helping you develop your own way of seeing rather than following a set of rules. For now, photowalks and workshops are available in Düsseldorf, Cologne and Berlin only.
