Our Photo Stories

Option 1 – Our PhotoStories Workshop

Put into practice what you have learned and also learn while you do it

 

Our PhotoStories Workshop is a traveling photography workshop which teaches rural communities and photography enthusiasts how to create a photo-story using the cameras and devices available to them. Our PhotoStories begins with a three-hour workshop which defines what a photo-story is, gives examples and explains what type of images are needed to create a visual story.

 

 

By creating a photo-story participants learn different photography skills such as portraiture, capturing action, wide-angle and close-up photos. Participants then have the challenge of photographing their own photo-story. Throughout the photography project, guidance, feedback, and inspiration are given online and the end result is an online slideshow presentation. Our PhotoStories is about putting to practice what you learn but more importantly learning while you do it and being part of a creative project with an end result.

Option 2 – Photo Stories Workshop and Community Exhibition

Bringing rural community together through the power of photography and storytelling

 

Our PhotoStories Workshop and Community Exhibition is an immersive photography experience for rural communities. After attending a Photo Stories Workshop your community will be encouraged to put to practice what they learn using the cameras and devices available to them.

 

No experience? No problem. We teach you how to look at your backyard through new eyes and use your camera or smartphone to capture memorable images that tell a story.

 

Throughout the photography project, guidance, feedback, and inspiration are given online and the end result is a community exhibition and multimedia presentation. Community stories photographed by the locals themselves.
