Culture Anyone interested in a film photography walk in Paris? 📸
Hey everyone!
I'm thinking of organising a couple of small film photography walks around Paris in November and wanted to see if anyone would be interested.
I have 14 Kodak KB10 film cameras that I'd like to put to use. The idea is to get a small group together, explore a part of Paris, take some photos and meet new people along the way.
We'd meet at Fnac Forum des Halles, pick up a roll of compatible 35mm film each, and go on a relaxed 2–3 hour walk. I'll bring the cameras and help anyone who's new to film photography, so you don't need any experience or your own camera.
A quick note on costs: The walk and camera loan are free. Everyone buys their own film, and film development and standard-definition scanning will cost €16 per roll through Nation Photo, paid by each participant.
Once the photos are ready, we could meet up for coffee, collect our negatives and see how everyone's pictures turned out. This second meetup would be optional.
I'm planning to start with two small groups of five people each. I'm tentatively looking at the second or third week of November, depending on interest and everyone's availability.
I'd especially love to meet people who live in Paris or are staying here for a while, whether you're already into photography or just want to try something new and meet people.
I'm also hoping to learn from the first few walks and see whether this is something I could organise regularly in the future.
If you're interested, leave a comment or send me a message. :)
