The goal of this seminar is to help you access the stage, which you are now in your photographic journey. Determining what is working for you, what needs to change drastically, what needs intensification. Lunsford will lead the group in analysing your images and discussing your own intentions. Different edits of each participants work will be worked on and reviewed. Lunsford will present other artists work, books and projects and consider what makes them appealing. Steps crucial to activate or improve your professional status in the arts such as presentation, selling, public relations and documenting your work will also be introduced.
