We start the workshop with an online presentation and review session on the evening of Sunday 3 September 2023, before a day of shooting on the streets (on Thursday 7 September 2023).

Julia will deliver a presentation on street photography where she will talk about ways of producing more interesting and memorable street photos. 

Using her own images and the work of other photographers to provide context and inspiration she will discuss different ways of working as well as getting you thinking about your goals for the workshop and beyond. 

She will also discuss various techniques including layering to create stories, how to overcome fear and gain the confidence to get close to your subjects. She will also talk about different styles and approaches to street photography and why we are each drawn to particular kinds of photographs.

During the online session Julia will review up to five of your images and encourage feedback from all students. 

We will meet at 8:30am at a location to be confirmed.

After a quick technical check-in we head out to various locations to make photographs. Julia will be shooting alongside you, offering tips and suggestions. You'll also get to see how she approaches working on the street. 

After a break in the middle of the day we'll continue shooting in the afternoon. 

Throughout the day, Julia will encourage you to work on mini assignments or practicing techniques and approaches that are linked to goals you identified in the online session. Assignments are tailored to suit your level of experience.

To get the most out of the day we'll finish shooting around 6.00pm. After we finish feel free to hang around for a drink or dinner and to continue talking about street photography!
