Kodak XX Cinematic Film London Street Photography Photo walk

A relaxed, four‑hour or so photo walk that starts at Bank Station, threads through the heart of the City, and lands you in Soho by 7:00 pm – perfect for capturing the post‑work buzz without feeling rushed.

## Overview

• Start: 4:00 pm – Bank Station (Royal Exchange side) and areas nearby
• Midway: 6:00 pm – Walk through St Pauls, City Thameslink, Fleet Street and then wander through Covent Garden
• Finish: 8:30 pm – Central Soho (Carnaby Street / Berwick Street area)

The route balances iconic landmarks, spontaneous street moments, and the gradual shift from daylight to evening neon, giving you a rich visual story in a single evening.

This walk will be about 3 to 4 miles, so please bear this in mind. You may choose to do the first half or the second half instead of the full walk :)

We will sign off the evening over drinks / food (for those able to stay back)

## Key Shooting Opportunities

• Office exodus: Capture groups spilling onto the pavement, coffee in hand, with the City’s glass towers framing the scene.
• Market ambience: Stalls and lanterns in Covent Garden add texture and warmth.
• Neon nightlife: Soho’s iconic signage provides bold contrasts for low‑light portraits.

## Gear & Practical Tips

• I will provide one roll of KODAK XX 35mm film for you to use. Each roll has 36 exposures. You may choose to use it at your ISO of choice. I personally tend to stick with 800 ISO, using a slower aperture (5.6 to 11 ) in day light and faster aperture (1.5 to 2.0) in low light. However, this film can be shot at 250, 400, 800 and 1600 ISO easily
• Please make sure you can manually select the ISO on your camera, else this film roll will default to 100 ISO and unless you have an automatic flash, you will struggle with your camera
• You can join us at any point of time in the walk . I will share our Live location on WhatsApp (will create a WhatsApp group 2 days before the walk, including the meeting point)

Please note: The aim of the walk is to shoot at least one roll of Kodak XX, which will be provided to you. If you do not intend to use XX or not use a film camera kindly do not join this particular walk

The cost of the walk includes the film roll and payment required upfront via PayPal to ensure commitment to the walk

If you require a film camera for the walk please let me know in advance and I could get one for you to use for the evening
