Show me your photos and I’ll tell you who you are.

Klavdij Sluban’s experience enables each participant to find their own photographic language, reflecting their personality as theit inner vision of the world.
These 2 days are built around the editing of a series of images.
Three major aspects of auteur photography will be covered:
– knowing how to read your images. Educating your eye and knowing your medium of expression are essential.
– defining one’s obsessions in order to explore both the reality of life and the intimate, subjective perception of that reality.
– produce a coherent series of images with a personal photographic style.
Once the series has been built up, we will consider the possibilities of displaying and adapting the images in the form of a book, exhibition, slideshow or portfolio review.

The programme

Each participant will bring a series of images (between 20 and 30 photos), printed on small format paper, easy-to-handle prints.
Participants will be welcomed by Klavdij Sluban, who will then share his photographic references with the group and present the different stages of his career.
Each participant introduces himself or herself.
Editing: discussions on how to build your own series, around a large table where you can spread out your prints.
Educating the eye: Throughout these two days, references will be given to contemporary and classic photography, as well as to the visual arts and literature.
The aim is to take your photography to the next level.
The workshop ends over a glass of friendship.

Whether you’re just starting out or seeking to refine your portfolio, this two-day workshop will help curate your images. From image selection to sequencing, this workshop will include hands-on exercises and guidance to leverage your work. As a group, we will edit and sequence each other’s portfolios, learning from one another. Together we will explore the work’s strengths and shortcomings with critiques. The final part of class will focus on how to translate your portfolio to an online presentation, while building a network in the industry.

Photographers should arrive with an ongoing project or a selection of 50-100 images.

Maximum 12 participants

The impact of documentary photography increases by the right choices of images and the right flow in the presentation. Very often the editing of a visual story is made last minute and without the knowledge of where and how the story will be presented. The editing must be an equal important part of the photographer’s work as making the pictures.

The Visual Story Telling Workshop with Søren Pagter focuses on the editing process and the importance of how the photographer decides to present a documentary story. During the workshop the participants will edit different stories in various ways; for instance they will edit a picture story brought to them by Søren Pagter, they will edit each other’s stories and they will work with their own pictures under guidance of Søren Pagter.

It’s necessary that the participants each bring pictures from one story of their own. They must bring a broad selection of 30-80 pictures from the story. They must bring the pictures both digitally and in print. It’s also beneficial if the participants can bring all the original, unedited files from the stories – on a hard drive. The participants are encouraged to bring a laptop for the workshop.

As part of the workshop, Søren Pagter will also give lectures about his view on documentary photography and show examples of his work as editor for other photographers.

Maximum 10 participants.

How do you shoot images with impact and put them together as a portfolio or photo story? In this workshop we’ll look at compositions and what gives an image the WOW factor. But more than that we’ll look at how you put your images together into a coherent and balanced portfolio so that they show your creativity, consistently and skills.

There will be three parts to the workshop:

Part one – The anatomy of a photograph. A look at composition and framing
Part two – Let’s go shoot! Putting our photo skills into practice making better pictures
