Who is the workshop for?
This workshop is for anyone over the age of 18 who’s curious about the world of film photography. Whether you’re completely new, a digital photographer wanting to try film, or someone who once shot on film and wants to revisit it.
You don’t need to own a film camera, or even have shot film before.
Although, having a basic knowledge of manual settings (shutter speed, aperture, ISO) to expose an image can be helpful, but it’s not essential.
