PORTRAIT BASICS WITH CARA✨📸
Slow down, get curious, and fall in love with film.
Join us for a beautifully gentle introduction to film photography, perfect for girls who want to get hands-on and try something a little bit magical 📸 This workshop is all about slowing down, noticing the details, and learning the foundations of capturing moments on film.
Led by Cara, a professional photographer who specialises in film, you’ll be guided step-by-step through the basics. Cara will start with a relaxed introduction at BOOKS N’ CUP in Stockbridge before we head out on a guided walk, with creative prompts to help you see your surroundings in a whole new way.
What you’ll learn
How to load and use a film camera
The basics of composing a photograph
How to work with natural light
How to shoot with intention (and confidence!)
Each girl will have the chance to take her own photographs on film. Because film is a slower, more thoughtful process, your developed photos will be sent to you around 10 days after the workshop ✨ (the anticipation is part of the fun!).
What to expect
A calm, slow-paced and supportive environment
Gentle guidance and encouragement throughout
A relaxed creative walk with prompts
Plenty of time to ask questions and experiment
A cosy, welcoming girls-only space 💕
