Analogue Workshops
The tradition of film photography is alive and well at Leica! If you have recently purchased a Leica M film body, or are considering buying one, this is the place to start. Led by photographer Quinton Gordon, these three-day workshops explore the creative advantages of a hybrid workflow that partners film based photography with modern editing software. Discussions, field assignments and critiques will focus not just on the technical aspects, but on ways to improve your approach to creative photography.
