Ho Chi Minh City, or Saigon as many locals still call it, is not only one of my favorite cities in the world, but also one that I’ve lived in and know well.

The workshop will include a mixture of daily photo walks, photo and editing critiques, portfolio reviews and interactive lectures. This is an intensive workshop with an emphasis on helping you fully immerse yourself in the city and find yourself through street photography, so you can learn, while also having a great time experiencing Ho Chi Minh City.
