Discover the enchanting world of pinhole photography in this captivating workshop.
A pinhole camera is a mesmerizingly simple device that transcends modern lens-based approaches. Instead of a traditional lens, it employs a single, minuscule aperture - the "pinhole" - as its lens, which unveils a unique perspective on image creation.
As light gently filters through the pinhole, it delicately exposes an ethereal image onto the film nestled within the camera. The inherent charm of pinhole photography lies in its extended exposure times, offering a departure from the rapidity of modern cameras. These exposures range from fleeting seconds to contemplative hours, inviting you to embrace a patient approach to image crafting. The manual operation of the shutter becomes an intimate ritual, engaging you directly with the photographic process.
Our workshop illuminates the core of photography by stripping away complexities and placing emphasis on its foundational element: light. You will explore the nuances of light management, learning how to gauge its optimal entry and duration to craft stunning images.
By the workshop's end, each participant will proudly hold their meticulously crafted pinhole camera, a tangible symbol of their journey into this enchanting world. Beyond the camera, you'll carry with you a wealth of ideas, ready to shape your path in the realm of pinhole photography. If you're inspired, feel free to bring your own materials to create a unique pinhole, though rest assured, we're fully equipped to provide everything needed for this transformative experience.
