WORKSHOPS
Photography is not just about making images—it’s about building systems for how images are made.
Workshops extend this practice into learning environments centered on clarity, participation, and real-world application.
APPROACH
I approach workshops the same way I approach photography:
• Build clear systems
• Work within real constraints
• Prioritize human interaction
• Learn by doing
Workshops move quickly from understanding to action. Participants are active makers, learning through continuous adjustment and feedback in real time.
FORMAT
Workshops are available across a range of contexts:
• Institutional programs (universities, museums, organizations)
• Community-based workshops
• 1-on-1 and small group intensives
• Guest lectures and virtual sessions
Sessions range from 2–3 hour short-form workshops to half-day formats, full-day intensives, and multi-day engagements. Each is developed in conversation, with timing and structure adapted to the context, group, and goals of the experience.
