Photography Workshop With Leica
Two years ago, I walked into the Leica Flagship store in Amsterdam, just browsing for a small camera to take on my travels. But as I looked around, something caught my eye—and I suddenly realized I might be ready for a bigger change. After some thought, I decided to switch up my entire gear and take my photography to the next level. It felt like a big step at the time, but I went for the Leica SL-2—and I haven’t looked back since. The quality has been incredible, and I honestly feel like my work has improved as a result.
So, I’m really excited to share that I’ve been invited by the Leica Akademie Nederland to teach a few workshops for their community! It’s such an honor, and I can’t wait to share my experience with the attendees.
Our first workshop will be on Saturday, May 10th at my favorite interior store in Rotterdam: Pantoufle. Pantoufle was founded by my dear friend Esther Blankers, who has a unique eye for style, color, and materials. In her showroom, she’s created various corners that feel like home, with stunning timeless designs—all of which you’ll find beautifully displayed in the space. It’s the perfect environment for us to explore and capture a wide range of beautifully curated settings together.
Join me for an inspiring day filled with theory and hands-on assignments that will help take your interior photography to the next level. Don’t worry if you don’t own a Leica camera. You’re more than welcome to join us with whatever brand of camera you currently work with. The goal is to share knowledge and inspire each other!
Workshop Details
On May 10th I’ll be hosting a unique Interior Photography Workshop at Pantoufle Rotterdam, surrounded by stunning design and timeless furniture. During the day, I’ll walk you through my workflow, focusing on capturing interiors with natural light and simple, minimalistic aesthetics. Whether you're a pro or just starting out, this workshop is perfect for anyone wanting to capture spaces full of detail and beauty.
We’ll shoot with the Leica SL system (or your own favorite camera brand), and I’ll be there every step of the way, giving you tips and guidance to make sure you’re getting the most out of your gear. After the shoot, we’ll dive into post-editing in Adobe Lightroom, where I’ll share my favorite techniques for taking your images to the next level. Lunch and refreshments are included.
