Two days of street photography in Berlin, working through the evolving neighbourhoods, wide streets, quiet corners, and layered atmosphere of the city.

Join me for a small-group workshop in one of Europe’s most visually diverse capitals for street photography.

Berlin offers contrast, texture, movement, solitude, architecture, history, and an ever-changing rhythm that makes the city ideal for observation and visual storytelling.

Over two focused days, we will work with light, timing, composition, and awareness in the streets of Berlin — learning how to simplify scenes, recognise stronger moments, and build more confident photographs with intention.

This workshop is about seeing more clearly. We will explore how colour, light, shadows, backgrounds, and small visual relationships influence the strength of a photograph, whether the final image is in colour or black and white.

The goal is to simplify the process, become more aware of the whole frame, and make photographs that feel intentional, personal, and alive.

Description

What to expect

The workshop is practical, hands-on, and built around photographing in real streets and real situations.

Across the two days, we will work with:

  • observation and visual awareness
  • timing and anticipation
  • composition and simplification
  • layering and working with movement
  • light and shadow in urban spaces
  • building confidence and consistency in your photography

The first day begins with coffee, introductions, and a brief visual overview of the workshop before we head into the city. We will work through different streets and neighbourhoods, discussing scenes, framing, timing, and visual choices along the way.

The second day builds further on what we explored on the first day, allowing you to refine your approach and work with greater intention and awareness.

Typical workshop hours are:

Day 1: 10:00–17:00
Day 2: 10:00–15:00

Small group format

The workshop is limited to 4–10 participants. This creates space for personal feedback, individual guidance, and a more relaxed pace throughout both days.

Before the workshop, you will receive a short questionnaire about your experience, goals, camera, and lenses so that the teaching can be tailored more closely to you.

All levels are welcome. All camera brands and formats are welcome. Film photographers are also very welcome.

After the workshop

After the workshop, you are invited to a free group Zoom critique. This gives you time to edit, reflect, and continue the learning together with the group.

Practicalities

Participants arrange their own travel, accommodation, and meals.

Please bring weather-appropriate clothing, charged batteries, empty memory cards, or fresh film.

You will receive practical information before the workshop, including details to help you prepare and recommendations for staying close to the meeting point if desired.

Meeting point

The meeting point is:

Café Latrio, Monbijouplatz 4, 10178 Berlin, Germany.

We begin with coffee or tea and a short introduction at 10:00 on the first day.

Booking

After signing up, you will receive a short questionnaire about your goals, camera, and lenses, as well as practical information before the workshop and follow-up information afterwards.

If you have any questions before booking, you are very welcome to get in touch.
