Elevate your photography to high-end campaign level during this exclusive Porsche & Leica Akademie day at Porsche Centrum Gelderland. Led by automotive and advertising photographer Mirko Westerbrink (using his Leica Q & Leica SL3), you’ll explore how to translate the character of an iconic automotive brand into powerful images.
 
We start with a focused theory session on light, reflections, and the design language of cars, followed by a guided tour of the museum and Classic Center featuring unique classics from the private collection of Mark Wegh. After lunch on site, you’ll work hands-on in two teams: at the iconic Porsche pump station and in the high-tech workshop. You’ll practice viewpoints, lens choice, and framing, and learn to work with gloss, paint, and metal with precision—so you head home with portfolio-worthy images.
 
Mirko is known for his clean, narrative visual style and shows you how to bring precision and emotion together in a single frame. Ideal for Leica photographers who want to refine their craftsmanship in a setting that is rarely accessible
 

For photographers who want to experience how to create automotive images with style, professional light control and powerful clean compositions.

 

Topics Tailored to Your Needs:

  • Light & reflections: controlling paint, glass, and metal.
  • Composition & lines: reading Porsche’s forms, curves, and design accents.
  • Viewpoints & lens choice: creating dynamism without distortion.
