3-day street photography workshop in Istanbul, Turkey on August 25th-27th, 2018. The workshop will be led by myself, Forrest Walker, and Dmitry Stepanenko. 

Workshop Description:

Istanbul sits towards the top of my list of favorite cities in the world. That especially goes for street photography. Not only is it one of my favorite cities, but it’s also a city I’ve lived in and know well. I’ll be teaming up with talented photographer Dmitry Stepanenko once again so we can provide you 2 instructors instead of 1.

I don’t know of any city that has more to offer a photographer than Istanbul. Culture, history, religion, politics, people, life, diversity, conflict, architecture, water, sunlight, color, old world, new world, and the list goes on. All of this in a city that spans two continents. For even more info on this amazing city, you can look at the street photography guide I created for Istanbul.

The workshop will include a mixture of daily photo walks, photo critiques, portfolio reviews and interactive lectures (details below). This is an intensive workshop with multiple instructors fully involved each step of the way to make sure you get the most out of your time. There will also be an emphasis on helping you fully immerse yourself in the city through street photography, so you can learn, while also having a great time experiencing Istanbul.

What’s Included?:

• A variety of guided street photography walks giving a wide view of photo opportunities and exploration in the beautiful city of Istanbul.
• 1-on-1 shooting with each of your instructors to provide you constant feedback, tips, guidance, and allow you to observe how we work. We will also mix up activities and photography assignments into small groups to give you a chance to work on your photography without distraction.
• Multiple educational and inspirational lessons covering different aspects of street photography.
• An initial portfolio review followed by daily critiques of your photos taken during the workshop.
• Constant access to both instructors, including outside of the workshop’s scheduled time. We’re here to make sure you get as much as possible during your time in Istanbul.
• Small number of students to better provide for each of you. 
• Activities planned to give time for bonding with other photographers, while having a great time in Istanbul.
• A memorable experience not only improving your photography, but also enjoying one of Europe’s most amazing cities.

Additional Information:

• The workshop will be limited to 8-10 people so we can keep the groups small and give plenty of personal attention. With two instructors, we can have a 1 to 4-5 ratio and allow more quality interaction.
• The workshop fee covers not only the time during the workshop schedule below, but also the time spent on workshop preparation with each individual, and any time needed outside of the daily schedule while in Istanbul.
