One camera one lens one year  

Why do you photograph? Do you take or make your photographs?

How can you make your photography more fullfilling?

All we need is one camera and one lens for one year to change our photography forever. Get away from the same images you always take, free yourself from too much gear and go into a world of new and exciting possibilities. Learn everything with new eyes and find your true love for photography.  Professional or beginner doesn’t matter. It’s all about the journey.

Break the rules, embrace the grain and create your images instead of just taking them. Shoot less and keep more.

We all see the world a bit different, let’s try to see it from a new perspective.

Be apart of something fun, inspiring and join a friendly community for photographers by photographers.

Fill the boring days with passion and projects.

All you need is one camera and one lens and a bunch of small projects for a year.
