Within my 6 years of experience as a photographer, I have learned that incorporating emotion in your work can not only allow for you to create powerful art that can connect with your audience, but can also help with your healing journey as well. With my portrait project, "Self Portrait Sunday" I felt I was finally giving myself the opportunity to be seen and for my story and journey to be documented. It has transformed the way that I look at myself and through this class, I will teach you the tips that helped me grow in this space.

In this class, I'll cover how to go from being a technical photographer to becoming a visual storyteller and how vulnerability can be used as a tool to create powerful self-portraits.

You’ll learn how to:

• Use vulnerability and emotion as a tool in your art
• Source inspiration, prepare for, and shoot your own self-portrait 
• And of course, how to bring your images to life through editing in Adobe Lightroom & Photoshop

This class is perfect for creatives that are looking for ways to present emotion and vulnerability in their work, and anyone who wants to become a better visual storyteller. All you need is a camera (yes, your phone will do!) and a little creativity and courage—see you in class!
