Do you write and photograph for online publications, blogs, social media or local newspapers, but feel your photos could be stronger? Join us for this live online photography class to improve your photography storytelling and environmental portrait skills. Together we'll analyze how a good photo story is structured and what to consider when photographing people. Improve your photographic “seeing” with weekly, hands-on exercises. Works by a variety of documentary photographers are discussed to inspire you for your own photo stories.
Exciting guest speaker: Gianni Cipriano (The New York Times, The Guardian, Wired, The Wall Street Journal) will share his expertise on environmental portraits.
Co-presented with Forum Journalismus und Medien Wien (fjum) in Vienna, Austria (this class will be in English).
As a photographer, I had many stories to tell but I didn't know how to evolve from photo-taker to storyteller. Anja generously shared her experience and through weekly assignments and her constructive critiques, she gave me the knowledge and confidence I needed. I'll always value her guidance as a turning point in my photography career.

I want to tell you again that your class was great. I'm very inspired. Is there any chance you and Edward can continue this class? I don't want it to end!! It encompasses everything I love.
—Lee (California)
