"Jonathan's workshop in the Kyoto area is exactly what any aspiring street photographer should be looking for to improve their skills. Besides being an amazing street photographer and teacher, Jonathan is also fond of Japanese culture and customs which he likes to share. He speaks Japanese fluently which brought us closer in our interactions with locals anywhere we went and made our experience more authentic.
This workshop is an excellent learning and development opportunity at a great price value in a unique environment. I would definitely recommend it to others without any hesitation" - Mehdi Zouari

Behind The Scenes
Photos of Florian, Mehdi, Vica and Jonathan out shooting and enjoying Japan. The size of this workshop is kept smaller than other workshops due to how crowded Kyoto is during this time of year as well as how small restaurants are. Each day is full of 1-1 time with Jonathan, both discussing and practicing photography from morning until night. Because of the limited size and high demand, it sold out right after being announced publicly.
