The heart of our project

The community

Welcome to the Club! At our core, we're a community of analog photography enthusiasts brought together by a shared love for film.

Our mission is simple: to foster a space where photographers can connect, learn, and grow together. A space where you can find support and inspiration no matter where you are on your photographic journey.

In a world often marked by fleeting interactions, we are trying to offer something a bit more enduring, a bit more real.

LOCAL EVENTS

In-person meetups to gather, connect, showcase our work and build relationships with other photographers.

SHOP OPENING

06-07.11.24 | 6 rue Julien Lacroix Paris

On November 6 and 7, we are finally opening our doors in Ménilmontant. Join us for an evening of celebration — grab a glass of wine, explore our books & zines collection, browse through prints, chat with a stranger, wander around the darkroom, check out some cameras, and flip a record in between while you’re at it.

Thibaut Piel has been working on a "local" exhibition to mark the occasion. No spoilers though.

Got a photography buddy? Bring them along!
Got a camera at home? Bring it too!

This place is the culmination of everything we’ve built over the past few years, but most importantly, it’s about bringing people together around a shared passion for film. Whether you’re into analog photography or just curious, we can’t wait to welcome you in.

THE ANALOG DAYS

23.11-03.12.23 | Paris

Imagined as a 10-day immersion into analog photography, our most recent event aimed to provide a complete experience around this medium by offering a wide range of activities.

On the program: free daily workshops on how to use a film camera, exhibitions by Gil Rigoulet and Guillaume Holzer, the launch of Agathe Berjaut's first zine, a bookshop featuring 30 books and zines from the community, free portfolio reviews, a end-to-end workshop on the Afghan Box (shooting, developing, printing), a print sale, a camera shop and old school portraits by our dear friend at Bruzklyn Labz.

In the press:

TRIPTYQUES LAUNCH

14.06-18.06.23 | EST Galerie

TRIPTYQUES offers an affordable access to the work of some of our favorite photographers through a triptych of small prints.

Over 5 days, people were able to delve into the intimacy of various series through slide projections in the basement and an adapted scenography, in addition to the triptychs on display.

AFGHAN BOX WORKSHOP

07.05.23 | CENQUATRE-PARIS

We partnered with Les Trois Bains (@lestroisbains) and The CENTQUATRE-PARIS (@104paris) to give kids an introduction workshop on analog photography.

30 curious youngsters gathered around a few Afghan Boxes to learn the basics of photography and how analog pictures come to life.
