Whether you’re taking your first steps into ICM or looking to deepen your practice, you’re in the right place. Intentional Camera Movement photography (ICM) means moving your camera during the exposure. It is a playful approach to photography that invites you to let go of strict representation and start creating images that feel as much as they show.
Our on-demand, self-study courses are led by two of the world’s leading ICM photographers, Morag Paterson and Kaisa Sirén. Together, they bring over 40 years of experience and a deep love of creative exploration to guide you as you grow your own visual voice.
