Every month a half day street photography workshop is organised for a small group of street enthousiasts. To get your first taste of street photography, to learn to see the world around you differently.
These street photography courses offers a dynamic and immersive experience during several month of training. The series ends with a Sharing Evening of your work at GC Elzenhof in Ixelles ( Projection and/or Exhibition).
Street photography isn’t just a walk — it’s theory, tactics, ethics and storytelling. It deserves months of practice to master.

For those with a lot of patience, curious about street photography? Here are the projections we did on the walls of GC Elzenhof with the students work. After every course we organise a viewing evening or vernissage where you can see the best works of the students made during the course.
Street photography images from the 2026 students, of which some ended up in the physical exhibition at GC Elzenhof.
The works of one of the first courses worth watching. Talented photographers walked the streets of Brussels for month and this is what they saw.
A double expo pop up evening we did showing street and hybrid photography.
Part of the students followed the street photography course while another part of the students worked analog and hybrid in the experimental photography course that I organise every few years.
F.A.Q. on street photography courses
-
No, street photography is about seeing, reacting on your environment. If you freeze time with a compact, a point & shoot or your smartphone… It’s all ok.
-
No problem whatsoever. All classes are being repeated the next class, and I guide you individually depending on your level.
-
These courses focus on street photographers, some known, some unknown. The fact that we are learning together in a group gives you new input, new views on photography for sure. I have students that did this course three times! Just for fun and to keep on learning.
