photography workshop

Lens skills seminar

A photography workshop is an instructional session where participants learn photographic techniques, often combining classroom teaching with hands-on shooting practice.

Workshops range from beginner sessions on camera basics to specialized intensives on portrait lighting or landscape composition: I signed up for a street photography workshop in Brooklyn.

Unlike formal courses, workshops are typically short—a few hours to a few days—and focus on practical skills.
