Feeling a little stiff in your photographic practice? Need a little push to try something new, especially now when you probably can’t be in public much? Let’s stretch our creative muscles together in this live online photography workshop.

Unique weekly exercises will challenge you to experiment with creative approaches to storytelling and to try out new techniques and ways of taking pictures. 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 workshop will be a live, online gallery tour with commentary of the exhibition “Francesca Woodman . On Being an Angel” at C/O Berlin (currently closed due to COVID-19 restrictions). Woodman’s visual language often encompasses interiors — just the sort of imagery available to many of us now.

This live online workshop is designed for our current #stayhome period.

 

 
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.

What a great class — I learned a lot and found it very inspirational!
