The Lomography Story

The Lomography story dates back to the early 1990's...

A group of students from Vienna stumbled upon the small enigmatic Russian camera, Lomo Kompakt Automat. They were astounded with the mind-blowing photos that it produced – the colors were vibrant, with deep saturation and vignettes that framed the shot – it was nothing like they had seen before! Lomography is a globally active organisation dedicated to experimental and creative visual expression, a playful combination of lo-tech and hi-tech, and a cultural institution involved in commercial photographic and design company. Lomography is dedicated to the unique imagery and style of analogue photography, and will continue to contribute to its development.
