Welcome to Lomography!They are a global community whose strong passion is creative and experimental analogue film photography. Lomography is about being in the moment, capturing it with your favourite Lomographic tool – producing effects like light leaks, vignette framing and deep saturated colours! Our approach to photography, along with the 10 Golden Rules, was inspired by the discovery of the Lomo Kompakt Automat aka the LC-A in 1991. Ever since then, we have been active in countless exhibitions worldwide, showcasing millions of Lomographs in galleries and festivals, as part of our aim to keep analogue photography alive and in full swing.Currently, They have over one million members across the world, and this number is growing all the time!
