Have you created a set of photographs but aren’t sure how to assemble them into a coherent series and present them? Do you find yourself distracted by comparisons with others, unsure of what is truly yours and what is shaped by others’ gaze?

This workshop is designed for photography enthusiasts who have already taken their first steps in portraiture and want to go deeper — to learn how to create meaningful portraits and build coherent visual stories from them.

This programme is set on both of my long-term projects: One People Story and Beautiful People.

During the Q&A session I will give a behind-the-scenes look at the work of a portraitist, talk about my inspirations and what motivates me to create portraits. Anecdotes and interesting backstage stories will enrich the meeting with a photo show in the background.

In the second part I will give the floor to the participants. I invite photography enthusiasts, especially those interested in portraiture, to present their photos and talk about them. This is a chance for valuable tips, advice and inspirations, to develop your photographic passion and exchange experiences.

How to overcome the fear of talking to and photographing a stranger? What to pay attention to in the composition of a portrait photo? How do I use both still and flash light? How do I present my photographs? Is it important what we photograph with? – These are just some of the topics which will come up in our discussions.

I organise these workshops periodically in my Portrait Studio, they are also held at the invitation of galleries or institutions of culture.
