Fourth Annual London Summer Photography Group Workshop

Limited Spaces! July 5th to 11th, 2026. Passionate Photographer Masterclass with Steve Simon & Edmond Terakopian

Very much looking forward to welcoming you to London next month, for our fourth group workshop on street and travel photography. If you’re interesting in honing your skills in spontaneous street moments, street portraits, the play of light, interesting buildings or objects, as you are immersed in a week of photography, then this is the place to be!

We still have a few spaces left, so for more information and to book your spot, please visit: Passionate Photographer Masterclass LONDON

As on previous years, we’re most thankful for FUJIFILM UK’s continued support by providing us a classroom facility at the FUJIFILM House of Photography in Covent Garden. During these two hour daily sessions we share the group and tutors’ work and have constructive conversations about the imagery. It’s always an extremely positive and hugely beneficial part of our workshops.

What To Expect?!

The easiest way is to share an album of my work from the past few years of our workshop. You may recognise a few, as they went on to win awards. We always have a very hands on way of hosting our workshops, so we will travel together to various locations hand picked by me. You’re then welcome to shadow either of us, or to wonder freely, making pictures. Here’s a link to my Flickr Album of Workshop Images.

Regardless of your level of experience (we always have a small group so a varying level of experience is easily catered for), which camera format or system you use, hope to see you in London! Just pack comfortable footwear, spare batteries and memory cards!

London Street Photography Workshop, July 7-13, 2024

London Baby! Our Third Joint Summer Workshop

***Update***

Absolutely thrilled to share the good news that with the generous support of Fujifilm UK, our week long London street photography workshop will culminate in a group exhibition in London’s Covent Garden at the Fujifilm House Of Photography gallery. The exhibition fits in perfectly with the current theme of “Life As You See It” at the venue’s prestigious gallery.

We’re equally thankful to Fujifilm’s support of the workshop by kindly providing us with a classroom at the House Of Photography to use during the week, for our daily editing and feedback sessions, where participants show the best work from the day before for constructive critique and feedback. Always an opportunity for great conversation and self growth.


Thrilled to share that my dear friend and colleague Steve Simon and I will be back on the streets of London this summer, with our third joint workshop, looking for those special moments and juxtapositions which make beautiful street photographs; a document of daily life.

We have only THREE places left, so for more information and to book, head over to: Passionate Photographer Masterclass LONDON – with Steve Simon & Edmond Terakopian.

The biggest gain in one’s level of photography never comes from just new equipment; it comes from learning to see deeper, being mindful and reacting in a visually cohesive and aesthetically communicative way. We keep our group sizes down to a maximum of eight people, to allow for more personal interaction. It’s a truly international workshop, open to all. We’ve so far had attendees from Canada, US and UK.

Our fully immersive workshop will be focused on street photography and travel photography, with direction and feedback from us both, on a daily basis. Steve and I will share our own approaches and philosophies to capturing daily life, on the streets.

The best way to really advance our craft, is to have a totally immersive experience. To dedicate the week and really focus the mind and soul, our observational skills, as well as sharpen camera skills. Photographing, exchanging thoughts, sharing of images, not just with Steve and myself, but amongst fellow workshop attendees too, is one of the absolute joys of such a photographic workshop. If you’ve never done a week long workshop, you will be amazed by the gains one makes after such a fully immersive experience.

Hope to see you in London in July!
