Create powerful photography through connected ideas

We'll explore

Do you want to create a meaningful series of images? Do you have an idea for a series but need support finishing? Welcome to Finding the Red Thread. The concept that will help you create a body of work where each image supports your idea, story, or specific photo technique.

In this workshop you will explore an idea that you already have or you can choose from my extensive list of fun prompts. With your idea in hand we will start with creative brainstorming and move into exploration. I will guide you as you approach your theme from a variety of viewpoints, eventually creating 12-14 images. As the workshop progresses don’t be surprised if your original concept grows and takes you in unexpected directions. This is where the fun and magic happens!

In this workshop we will practice creative brainstorming, curation and presentation. You will leave this workshop with many creative ideas that you can use for future exploration.

What they say

“I learnt so much about my ability and about my creativeness through out the workshop as well as finding out that I have so many ideas inside me…“

“I really enjoyed all the different activities that we had every class, but mostly to see how every participant approached the task for every activity and the comments all gave about the photographs I presented.”
— Luis
The feedback from the group was most helpful to me. The other members were unfailingly supportive. They also provided wonderful suggestions when I got stuck with some aspect of my project.
