Take what lives in-between the words and underneath the surface of your everyday life and turn it into visual poetry through self-portraiture. This six-session course teaches you how to use photography as a tool for healing and transformation. Learn how to create visually what might be difficult to articulate verbally, turning what’s triggering you or feels emotional and turning it into a powerful visual treasure. This class will help you connect more deeply with yourself and give you the tools to create powerful self-portraits with intention and meaning.
