Discover the power of one lens.
This immersive, field-based workshop explores why the 50mm lens, affectionately referred to as the Nifty Fifty, has been a foundational tool for generations of photographers. We begin in Downtown Portsmouth, NH, at Market Square and walk into Strawbery Banke, where historic homes, heirloom gardens, and traditional farm animals create rich storytelling opportunities, all photographed with a single focal length.Â
