Lomography is a Magazine, a Shop, and a Community dedicated to analogue photography.
It began with a fateful encounter in the early 1990s, when a group of students in Vienna, Austria, stumbled upon the Lomo Kompakt Automat -- a small, enigmatic Russian camera. Mindlessly taking shots from the hip, and sometimes looking through the viewfinder, they were astounded with the mindblowing photos that it produced -- the colours were vibrant, with deep saturation and vignettes that framed the shot -- it was nothing like they had seen before!
Upon returning home, friends wanted their own Lomo LC-A, igniting a new style of artistic experimental photography that we now know as Lomography!
