The Intimate Portrait
Jess T. Dugan
Tuition $1,225
Code P0819-25
Making a photographic portrait is an intimate endeavor, requiring both photographer and subject to work together to create a compelling image. In this workshop, participants investigate their motivations for making portraits, strengthen their skills working with people, and engage deeply with issues in contemporary photography through lectures, demonstrations, and critique. While we address some technical aspects of photography, this workshop focuses primarily on the emotional and conceptual elements of portraiture.
