FUJIFILM Lens Festival: Street Photography Session

If you’re interested in exploring the best camera lens options for street photography, we have the perfect session for you. As part of our Lens Festival, this day of hands-on activities showcases the camera lens features that will help you get the most out of your street photography.

Before we dive into the Street Lens Festival itinerary, let’s meet the FUJIFILM Product Specialist who will be accompanying you.

Carl Hare

Carl Hare pairs creative experience with technical know-how as a freelance photographer and FUJIFILM UK product specialist. His photography spans many genres, and while his professional roots trace back to weddings, Carl is equally adept at studio portraiture, street, macro, landscapes and wildlife.

Keen to share his wealth of knowledge, Carl has delivered photography workshops for close to a decade. His passion for the outdoors is a constant source of inspiration, and when he can combine it with his teaching skills, there’s simply nothing better — for him and his students.
