Self-portraiture is vulnerability made visible. This class starts with self-exploration: what story does your life tell? Then you orchestrate a photo session where you're the subject, using your own imagery and narrative as the medium.
The teaching acknowledges the difficulty: it's hard to put yourself in the spotlight. But that's where growth lives. Sharing your self-portraits with a community of makers deepens both your practice and your confidence.
In this class we'll dive into a self-exploration exercise to define a story we can tell about our lives through self portraiture.
For the class project you'll need to choose a theme from your life to portray and then orchestrate a photo session where you are the subject!
I've included several tips and tricks throughout this course to help you along the way. I've also shared a collection of my own self-portraits that I've taken over the years as examples.
I hope that you choose to share your images with us! It can be hard to put yourself in the spotlight but we grow so much through sharing our art with others.
I can't wait to see what you create!
