New York Photography Workshop
September 26 & 27 2026
Two days of walking, observing, registering, and experiencing New York with a small group of photographers.
$880
About the Experience
Most of us photograph between obligations. Between work, family, schedules, and responsibilities, photography often becomes something we fit into the spaces that remain.
This workshop is an opportunity to do the opposite.
For one weekend, photography becomes the priority. You will spend two days walking, observing, photographing, and sharing with a small group of people who value photography as much as you do.
There are no assignments and no expectation that everyone photograph the same subjects. What matters is not what you photograph, but the opportunity to reconnect with your own way of seeing.
New York provides the setting. Yor instructor provides guidance. The experience remains your own.
Our Approach
We believe photography is learned through observation before technique. Technical knowledge matters, but it becomes meaningful only when it serves a way of seeing.
Throughout the weekend, your instructor provides individual technical and editorial guidance while encouraging participants to develop their own photographic voice.
Conversations, image reviews, and time spent photographing are all part of the learning experience. Following the workshop, each participant receives a one-hour private online session to revisit the photographs made during the weekend, reflect on their work, and gain a deeper understanding of their own creative process.
Who this is for
This workshop is for people who want to dedicate time to photography, observation, and creative exploration. People who share a genuine curiosity about photography and the world around them.
Throughout the weekend, each participant receives individual guidance while benefiting from the conversations, photographs, and perspectives of the group. Together, these exchanges create an environment where everyone can deepen their own practice while learning from the way others see.
There is no prescribed subject matter. You're free to photograph what genuinely captures your attention, allowing your own way of seeing to emerge naturally.
