Developing A Portrait Series (Online)

In a workshop-style environment, students in this course explore the process of developing a portrait series. Together, we identify narrative threads that weave through a collection of portraits, delving into the technical, artistic, and topical considerations essential to developing a cohesive series. Participants receive guidance from the instructor to refine their imagemaking, and they are encouraged to present their ideas, inspirations, and works-in-progress. We also reference renowned photographers, such as Chester Higgins, Deana Lawson, and Richard Avedon, to provide diverse perspectives on making a portrait series. Final student presentations feature works that celebrate the culmination of their creative endeavors.
