Feeling a little stiff in your photography practice? Need a push to try something new? Let’s stretch our creative muscles together!

Unique weekly exercises will challenge you to experiment with new techniques and ways of taking pictures, and creative approaches to storytelling — no matter if you’re a beginner or are years into your photographic practice. Through group critique, we’ll analyze composition and we’ll also seek inspiration by examining the work of a variety of photographers. At the end of the class, students will be energized and inspired to expand their photographic vision.

A special highlight of the course will be a live, online guided tour through the exhibition “Tyler Mitchell” at C/O Berlin.

Thank you both very much for a great course. I loved watching the movie clips and seeing students' interpretation through your talented guidance. See you again soon!

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.
