A new, monthly group for students who work with environmental portraits and are looking for long-term support and continuity while developing a project. As in our weekly portrait class, we’ll cover how to tell stories about people by photographing them in their own environment — their neighborhood or home, indoors or outdoors — and how to incorporate space to reveal intimate details. We delve into ways to make your subjects feel comfortable (including social distancing), so that your images both illuminate their personalities and engage the viewer on a deeper level. We’ll also discuss the importance of collaborating with your subjects and how to combine environmental portraits with a documentary-style project. Work by other photographers will be presented. A guest speaker (to be announced) will share their work and experience. This class is limited to 6 students only and each session runs for 3 hours with a 10 minute break. Includes a private 1-on-1 session.
