Bring Your Photography Project: A Hands-On Feedback & Support Session

✅ Perfect for you if you are

• Sitting on a photography project you’ve been meaning to start but keep putting off
• Needing photos for your social media, portfolio, product catalog, or professional profile
• Looking for a bit of guidance, feedback, or structure to finally get it done
• Wanting a supportive space to make progress on your creative work

📍Location

• We will meet at the Royal Academy of Art and move around depending on participant's project needs

📷 What to Expect (60-minute session)

🔹 10 min – Photography Review

Review photography project plans and discuss projects as a group:

🔹 50 min – Photo Project, with time for Q&A and Networking

Optional demo:
If you would like a polaroid portrait, I am happy to take one of you and send you a digital scan (no negatives, for social media use, with credits)

📱 What to Bring

• Your photography equipment e.g. mobile phone, DSLR or mirrorless camera.
• A friend to photograph you or a model you are photographing — each ticket admits up to 2 people. Of course, you are more than welcome to come by yourself. If you would like some help doing self-portraits on a tripod, selfies, or product photos, I am happy to offer some tips for you as well.
• Some photography lights provided but feel free to bring the equipment you normally use as well as any props you would like to be photographed with.

⚠️ Please Note

This is a group workshop focused on guidance and feedback. While I'm here to support you, I won’t be able to take the photos for you!

I moved from New York to London not too long ago. After my book tour came to a close, I decided I wanted to go back to my contemporary art practice part-time. I have had an electic career: in tech and research, at the United Nations, but I was also a fashion week photographer at one point. I hold a B.F.A. from the Parsons School of Design, and an M.A. from Johns Hopkins University. I was a Departmental Visiting Student at the University of Oxford as well. I still mentor at Yale University's Tsai Center for Innovative Thinking. Photography is a lot of fun! Nowadays I focus on polaroids, but the principles of photography apply no matter what you use to photograph with. I also co-organize the Instant Film as Contemporary Art Monthly Series, which is a free online community-building event that features renown guest speakers.
