Join us for a hands on workshop with Lenny Medina who will walk you through how to operate a large format film camera! 

Photographing with a 4x5 camera is an unparalleled experience that requires patience and a refined sense of composition but delivers images with incredible clarity, often exceeding the resolution (or megapixels) of most digital cameras.

Each participant will be given (2) sheets of Black and White 4x5 film to photograph outside along the lawn of the historic Andrew Freedman Home. Lenny will guide you through loading the film into holders, using a light meter to properly expose your image and composing your photographs through the glass viewfinder.
