Led by Layla from Media Bokeh, this hands on workshop is designed to make film photography feel approachable and easy to understand. Whether you are completely new to film or looking to strengthen your foundation, this session focuses on clarity, confidence, and practical skills you can use right away.

During the workshop, Layla will walk through the key differences between 35mm and 120 film, how film physically works inside a camera, and what that means when you are shooting. Participants will learn how to confidently load and unload film, how to use a handheld light meter to determine proper exposure, and how to choose the right film stock for different lighting conditions and creative goals.

The workshop will also cover what to look for when buying or testing a used film camera, along with best practices for caring for both film cameras and film stock. Live demonstrations using real gear will help turn concepts into hands on understanding, making the process feel less intimidating and more intuitive.

If you own a film camera or handheld light meter, you are welcome to bring it along. If not, no problem. Demo gear will be available during the workshop.
