What You'll Learn
Each day will include shooting sessions in different parts of the city followed by review and edit sessions. We will talk about story structure in photography, the difference between a collection of images and a coherent body of work, sequencing, what to include and what to leave out, finding a consistent point of view, and working with light and time of day. We will also cover composition, framing, and the specific challenges of working in a dense, visually complex city.

About
Bangkok does not give you one story. It gives you twenty, happening simultaneously, in every direction. The skill is not in finding something to photograph. The skill is in deciding what the photograph is about. This workshop is built around that question. Over three days we will work specifically on narrative, on what it means to build a body of images that holds together, that moves, that says something beyond the single frame. December is a good month in Bangkok. The heat eases, the light softens, and the city continues to do what it always does, which is offer an almost unlimited supply of human life happening in public, with a kind of unself-conscious openness that is rare anywhere else in the world. We will shoot in the markets, the lanes, the temples, the streets in between. We will review and sequence every day. By the end, the goal is not a folder of photographs. The goal is the beginning of a story you can call your own.
Why This Workshop?
Story First
Most workshops focus on individual images. This one focuses on what comes next — building a sequence of photographs that holds together, moves, and means something. Bangkok provides the material. The workshop provides the method.
Small Group
Eight participants only. Every review session is personal. Every edit is discussed. You leave knowing exactly what your photographs are doing and why.
A Body of Work
Three days of focused shooting and daily reviews means you don't just take photographs home. You take a coherent set of images with a point of view, images that belong together.
Limited Slots
This workshop is limited to 8 participants to maintain an intimate and immersive experience. Apply early to secure your spot.
