DESCRIPTION
Join Phil Penman, the Leica Akademie and Leica Store and Gallery Boston as we explore Historic Boston.
Phil will guide the group through the streets, highlighting many of his favorite locations, while demonstrating his approach to "seeing", metering light and creating the dramatic compositions found in his work. From practical, hands-on sessions in the field to editing and review of the images created, his weekend intensive will provide insights into his creative process from start to finish.
There are thousands of stories to be told in Boston, learning to find these visual stories is the focus of this Masterclass weekend.
WHAT SHOULD YOU KNOW?
This is a physically demanding workshop. Working “in the field” can often mean walking over 5 miles a day. Participants are expected to have good understanding their cameras as well as an understanding of basic image editing. We will have a selection of Leica Cameras available for you to try throughout the weekend. This is a rain or shine workshop, so you will need to be prepared for the weather.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
Those willing to wake up early and chase the light should sign up now. This class is not for the faint of heart or those who fear fatigue. Anyone interested in honing their skills as a street photographer will get to see creative insight from Phil Penman through this rare opportunity.
