Street photography
on your "own terms"
Live online sessions for photographers who want to read a street, not just photograph it. Group cohorts, private lessons, and a community that keeps you shooting.
Two ways to learn, one community
Group sessions keep you accountable. Private lessons move at your pace. Both use the same streets as the classroom.
Group sessions
Cohorts of 6–10 photographers meet weekly for live critique, shooting assignments, and discussion. You see how others think through the same scene, which changes how you think about yours.
see schedulePrivate lessons
One-on-one sessions built around your specific gaps — whether that's timing, composition, or confidence approaching strangers. The instructor reviews your actual files, not generic examples.

No commute required. Sessions run over video with screen-share for image review.
get in touchFrom first session to independent eye
Each learner follows a path shaped by where they actually are, not a fixed syllabus. The steps below show the general shape of that journey.
Intake review
You share a set of recent shots. The instructor identifies what you're already doing and where the friction is.
Focused assignments
Short, specific tasks — one element at a time. Light, timing, or subject distance. Not everything at once.
Live critique
Your images reviewed in real time with the instructor. Questions welcome, wrong answers rare.
Adjusted path
After each block the plan updates based on what you've actually improved and what still needs work.
84 photographers have completed at least one full learning block since 2018.

Who runs the sessions
"Street photography rewards patience and curiosity. The technical side is learnable in weeks. The harder thing is staying present long enough for something real to happen — and that's what we actually work on."
Marta has been photographing cities for over a decade and teaching online since the platform started. Her sessions focus on decision-making in the field: when to wait, when to move, when the light is worth the awkward angle. She reviews student work directly, no assistants, no automated feedback.
read more about the team"The weekly assignment structure kept me shooting on days I would have otherwise skipped. Critique sessions were direct — no vague encouragement, just specific observations."
"I'd been shooting for years but never understood why some frames worked and others didn't. After three sessions it became much clearer. Mostly it was about what I was doing before pressing the shutter."
"Convenient that it's all online — I live outside the city and never had access to this kind of feedback before. The community in the group cohort was a genuine surprise, people actually share what they're struggling with."
