About
In-Person Learning
An intimate portfolio-review evening exclusively for Los Angeles Center of Photography Members
Join acclaimed portrait photographer Andrew Southam for an intimate evening devoted to looking at, discussing, and thinking about portrait photography.
Designed exclusively for LACP Members, The Portrait Salon offers photographers of all experience levels an opportunity to bring their work and receive thoughtful, direct feedback from Andrew in a small-group setting.
Participants are invited to bring 5–10 portrait photographs, either as prints or digital files, for review and discussion. Andrew will engage with each photographer’s work, offering his perspective on the photographs, editing, approach, and the larger ideas behind the work.
This is not a traditional lecture or class. It is an informal, intimate salon built around looking at photographs, sharing ideas, learning through conversation, and developing forward going projects.
