Photography course in Berlin: Cinematic Street Photography

Street photography is particularly attractive at night due to the colorful light of car headlights, neon signs and street lighting. Berlin never sleeps and we set off to capture moments that show urban life in all its oddity and banality.

Berlin at night: your playground for cinematic street photography

In this photo workshop, you will learn to capture scenes in the city that are as atmospheric as individual images from a movie. Through the interplay of light and shadow, exciting image composition and choosing the right moment, we create unique snapshots of the urban night.

Skilful staging of street scenes and moments allows our pictures to tell small stories: storytelling is a central part of street photography and in this photo course we look at how we can use it to conjure up captivating images from everyday situations.

Berlin at night never stands still and I'll also show you how you can effectively incorporate the movement of passers-by into your photos and what else needs to be considered in street photography in general and at night in particular.

You will learn about the possible uses as well as advantages and disadvantages of color and black and white photography in this genre and I will help you get the most out of your camera in difficult lighting situations, even in difficult lighting situations.
