This is a 1 Session Zoom Workshop
Portfolio Review season will be upon us in no time.
Portfolio Reviews are key events for photographers to show their work to industry experts. They offer valuable feedback, help build professional networks, and create chances for exhibitions, online showcases, book deals, and gallery representation. Attending can be challenging but very rewarding, and doing well means preparing your work carefully to make the best impression.
This workshop will help you improve your presentation skills, including editing, sequencing, portfolio layout, and engaging reviewers. We'll cover key questions: understanding your audience and purpose, selecting your best work, structuring your portfolio for a cohesive flow, artist statements, CVs and bios, digital vs. physical portfolios: pros and cons, leave behinds and follow up.
Michael PAnnier
Opening his first gallery in the Washington, DC suburbs in 1987, Michael has continuously been involved in the art and photography gallery circles. Initially concentrating on works on paper and multiples, he has been focused on photography for the past 20 years.
Based in his Greenville, SC studio, conveniently located between the Charlotte and Atlanta metro areas, he frequently travels to Los Angeles and New York maintaining studio relationships in both locations. Working on personal projects, Michael may be found wandering the streets of major cities or the desolation of the desert southwest.
Michael hosts and conducts fine art photography workshops in his studio and on location in Death Valley, the Alabama Hills and the Owens Valley, and Joshua Tree.
As Founder and Executive Director of the SE Center for Photography in Greenville, SC, Michael is a frequent speaker on the business of fine art photography, exhibition curator and juror, and portfolio reviewer.
