Never before has photography been such an widespread and accessible medium. The rise of digital technology enables us to capture moments and memory in a much freer way. Many of film's limitations -such as ISO and the number of exposures- have disappeared. However the basic principles of photography remain the same whether one uses a digital compact camera, a pro analog camera or an antique medium format camera.

I teach in various workshops not only the principles of photography but the understanding of how anybody, with any type of camera, can create great images. The most important thing to grasp: it is not the camera one uses but how well one knows his/her own camera!
