The Poetry of the Street: Boston Photography Workshop with Jeff Larason

@ Discover the art of capturing fleeting street moments in this five-part workshop for photographers looking to hone their street photography skills. This course will help you sharpen your eye, build confidence, and capture the rhythm and poetry of everyday life in the city. We’ll begin with a classroom session exploring the storied history of street photography, highlighting influential photographers and introducing styles and techniques for working in public spaces. Participants will take part in two guided on-location photo sessions in Boston, putting these ideas into practice while photographing the city in real time. Each on-location session is followed by a thoughtful, student-centered critique class. Participants will share and discuss their images and other students’ work in a supportive group environment. These critiques will focus on visual storytelling, composition, sequencing, and personal approach, offering time for reflection, feedback, and growth. Thoughtful feedback is key to understanding one’s own work and provides the next steps for continued growth as an artist creating work in public spaces.  Join us to deepen your street photography practice and connect with others who see the city through a creative, visual lens.
