Stella Kramer: Two-day workshop


  • Durham Arts Council, Duke Rehearsal Hall 120 Morris Street Durham, NC, 27701 United States (map)

You’re too close to it: Building a story with your work

Whether you’re trying to reorganize your website galleries, submit to a portfolio review, a contest or a gallery, how you sequence your photos matters. Photo Editing is NOT an app!

Selecting and sequencing your images is a skill, and can be the difference as to whether your work gets the proper focus you want. It is difficult to be objective about your own work, but taking a step back can make all the difference.

In this two-day workshop you will understand how to better allow your work to tell the story you choose. There will be a group critique and hands on help to get a better perspective on your work, and how others perceive it.

Stella Kramer is a photo editor and the publisher of STELLAZINE, a photozine featuring unique photography that deserves a larger audience. She is a Pulitzer Prize winner, and worked as a photo editor at such publications as The New York Times, People, Entertainment Weekly and Sports Illustrated (to name a few). She also teaches in the Masters of Digital Photography program at the School For Visual Arts in New York City.
