Storytelling workshops
Everyone has a story to tell—whether it's your own or that of your subjects. Personal projects or photo-journalistic assignments carry unique challenges. Stories must have depth, sensitivity, and authenticity. Additionally, a story must have structure; a beginning, a middle, and an end, (though not necessarily in that order.) Tackle these challenges with experienced, working photographers to guide you.
