The first master class of the Slow Life Workshop was held in Mamison—a conceptual photography shoot with Rada Sadigova.

Twenty participants gathered from Vladikavkaz, Nalchik, Pyatigorsk, Grozny, Makhachkala, and even St. Petersburg.

Each had their own route to the mountains and photography.

Tatyana from St. Petersburg came on her birthday for a new experience. Gulshat came with her husband: he to ride, she to relax.

Among the participants were both professional photographers and those who only take pictures on their phones. They were united by one thing: the desire to see and feel more.

“Rebooting, slowing down, and creative energy — it all happened. When you take pictures, it's as if you're outside of time,” the participants shared.

It was a powerful start — and this is only the beginning. Workshops will be held every Saturday: zines, sketches, literary meetings — everything about attention and process.
