Held during KYOTOGRAPHIE, this masterclass explores street photography in Kyoto through guided hands-on shooting, short lectures, and group critiques led by a festival staff photographer.
Step into the layered energy of the street where overlapping gestures, shifting light, and fleeting encounters are abundant. Participants are encouraged to notice how relationships unfold within the frame, rather than seeking them out, to develop an understanding of how different elements can connect emotionally or atmospherically.
Layering, patience, colour, light, and intuition form the core of this masterclass. The camera is approached as a bridge: a way of responding to what is already happening.
Open to all experience levels and equipment, the masterclass emphasises observation, reflection, and exchange. Through sharing and discussing their work, participants deepen their visual awareness and explore how everyday encounters can become meaningful photographs.
