Documentary Street Photojournalism: Seeing Stories Others Walk Past
A practical masterclass on reading situations, timing your shot, and building a body of work that functions as a credible news source for real events.

A practical masterclass on reading situations, timing your shot, and building a body of work that functions as a credible news source for real events.
For photojournalists preparing to cover protests, civil unrest, or humanitarian situations where every decision carries weight beyond the photograph itself.
A focused masterclass on building multi-image narratives that work as journalism, not just as photography. Covers selection, sequencing, and the relationship between image and text.
