In this workshop, we will dive into what defines a photo editor and what they actually do. We will discuss what that entails and where it can be applied. Either as a career option, to see your own photography in a different light, or to get a better understanding of how photo editors think.
Photography offers so many opportunities, and most of them don’t involve actually taking the photographs. Also, we will have guest speakers from the photo industry joining us and sharing their expertise and experience. Let’s explore together how we can grow your visual strength.
