Dive into the world of film photography.
Join me for an analog experience in Amsterdam.

All you need to get started with film photography

  • Film Fundamentals Workshops

    If you're drawn to analog photography but unsure by where to begin — you're in the right place. I’ve created a Film Fundamentals Workshop that covers the basics of 35mm film.

    We’ll review which film to choose and how to load it, plus lighting and composition tips to help you create great photos.

    It’s suitable for beginners and for those with past experience who want to brush up on skills and reignite their creative spark.

    You’ll leave with new skills, creative confidence, and discover an intuitive way to observe the world around you using a mindful analog process.

    Classic SLR models like the Canon AE1 are available to rent and include a roll of 35m film (additional €50 fee). You’ll shoot the roll during our photowalk and I can suggest where to get your film developed in Amsterdam.

    Once we’ve covered the essentials down, we’ll head out on a guided photowalk through Amsterdam's charming Jordaan neighborhood.

    The Jordaan has a timeless charm for capturing authentic Amsterdam, with cozy cobblestone streets, 17th-century houses, quaint canals, and hidden courtyards.

Learn film photography from a professional

With over 20 years of experience shooting film, I’m passionate about helping others fall in love with the mindful analog process.

My straightforward approach encourages you to learn by doing, ask questions, and focus on enjoying this mindful, creative process instead of perfectionism.

Curious about developing and printing by hand? I also teach analog workshops at Doka107, a film photography collective and darkroom studio in Amsterdam. We host monthly group workshops and 1:1 sessions are available on request.
