Three days of street photography, post editing in Lightroom and/or Capture One, and daily evaluation.
Join me for a small-group masterclass in one of Europe’s most visually rich cities for street photography.
Lisbon offers tiled façades, steep streets, vintage trams, river light, shadows on the hills, and a rhythm that constantly invites observation. Over three focused days, we will work on shooting, seeing, editing, and shaping a more personal photographic voice.
The workshop also includes editing and developing black-and-white and colour photographs in Lightroom and Capture One. You will learn how to control tonal relationships, contrast, highlights, shadows, and local adjustments while preserving detail and atmosphere. The aim is not simply to apply a monochrome look, but to make careful editing decisions that strengthen the original idea behind the photograph.
Part of the workshop is dedicated to understanding your camera setup, lens choices, and how to work confidently with your gear in real-life situations. Then we focus on observation, timing, composition, and learning to recognise the moments and light that give a photograph life. We review and talk during the day, and all workshops are organic, so we adapt to the group’s needs.

Description
What to expect
This is a three-day workshop that combines shooting, reflection, editing, and feedback.
Across the three days, we will work with:
- developing a more personal and recognisable style
- shooting with more intention and confidence
- understanding camera control and lens choices more clearly
- timing, presence, and visual awareness
- creating photographs with more emotion, story, and personal expression
- building an editing approach that supports your vision
- shaping a clearer workflow, you can continue using it afterwards
Day 1 is about foundations and vision. We begin by setting intentions for the workshop: what draws your attention, what you want to express, and what you want your photographs to feel like. We also work with camera setup and practical choices, so you can move more intuitively through changing situations. From there, we head into the city for a guided shoot where you begin applying the day’s ideas in real streets and real moments.
Day 2 is about story, timing, and presence. We continue building on your direction, with supportive feedback and practical exercises focused on storytelling, anticipation, gesture, and stronger commitment in the moment. The aim is to help you move beyond single good frames and towards photographs with more meaning and personal character.
Day 3 is about style, editing, and your next steps. We look at what you naturally do well, how to recognise recurring strengths in your work, and how those qualities can become part of your signature. We also work with editing in Lightroom and/or Capture One, so your editing supports your style with more consistency, mood, and coherence.
Small group format
The workshop is held in a small group, allowing time for personal guidance, feedback, and a calm working atmosphere.
Before the workshop, you will receive a short questionnaire so the teaching can be tailored more closely to your level, your goals, and the way you work.
All camera brands and formats are welcome, including film.
Practicalities
Please bring a camera you know well, along with memory cards, charged batteries, and weather-appropriate clothing. Comfortable shoes are recommended, as Lisbon includes hills, stairs, and cobbled streets. If you plan to join the editing sessions, please also bring a laptop with Lightroom or Capture One installed.
Participants arrange their own travel, accommodation, and meals.
We will have an apartment available for meeting and editing during the workshop.
