Let Paris be your classroom for 5 days in March, when you step onto the streets with Magnum photographer Richard Kalvar. Designed for photographers who seek honest feedback, artistic challenges, and creative transformation, this street photography workshop promises to be intellectually demanding, yet filled with humor, curiosity, and inspiration.
This workshop is not only about learning valuable techniques, it’s about shifting the way you see. Through personalized feedback, group critique, and intensive shooting, you will develop the mindset required to photograph the streets with confidence and purpose. Richard will guide you through the art of framing and composition, providing techniques on navigating crowded environments and capturing compelling images.
With decades of experience and a distinct visual philosophy, Richard will share his sharp, insightful feedback, always aimed at helping you grow. You will have a chance to directly apply this feedback in real-time as you explore the streets of Paris for your shooting sessions.
“The workshop greatly exceeded my expectations, mostly because of Richard’s customized guidance for each participant. He’s approachable, funny, and unafraid to give honest, constructive critique.”

“If you compare the photos I took on Day 1 and Day 5, the transformation is evident. We all experienced a real shift — not just in how we shot, but in how we thought about photography. You can see it now in the work we’re sharing. There’s a new sense of weight and intention in every frame.”
