BEFORE YOUR FIRST FRAME: Photo Workshop in Marseille, France

FEBRUARY 11 - 14, 2026

Click on the photo for all the details.

This workshop, with Eyes in Progress, will help you be in the best possible position to succeed in visually exploring and getting your story in front of a wider audience. Much of that happens before you step foot outside your door.

Aside from the crucial later step of editing, there is a lot that needs to be considered when taking your idea and convincing editors, curators and publishers that it is worth their time, money and efforts.

We will explore logistics, research, potential collaborations, pitching your idea, grant possibilities, editing…it is a long list.

And this can be done while keeping your focus on the most important element: your vision for the story.
