1. Private Street Photography Workshop at Tel Aviv Streets With Anedrew Coburn

Activities

This is a workshop that is great for beginners or novices who are trying to improve their skills as photographers. Street photography is an art that is best when it is candid and raw, giving a realistic view of the people and locations that you are capturing. With the skills that you learn in my workshop, you can learn this art. You can even learn what apps you can get for your phone to get incredible pictures even without a DSLR camera.
