Photography Workshop

This is a private street photography course where you learn while walking through the back alleys of Kyoto, not the typical tourist photos.Drawing on my experience of over 20 years as a commercial photographer in France, I will not only provide technical guidance but also work closely with you on the areas where you are currently facing challenges.You can freely customize the content according to your level and purpose, including portraits, how to make the most of natural light, flash photography, and how to capture that decisive moment.This is a practical four-hour session for tourists to find their own unique perspective and style, breaking free from conventional tourist traps.
