From finding your photographic voice to understanding the process of creating photobooks, Giacomo will shares his insights on how to reach your audience from exhibitions to book/print sales.
During the workshop, you will also be able to see Giacomo in action as he photographs different London locations while making new work and take part in group review/editing sessions.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY
“I would thoroughly recommend this to anyone who wants to develop a portfolio. A really enjoyable weekend of art photography. I learned a lot about how to produce a consistent body of work.”
Meirion
“Thank you so much for such an amazing course! It was even more inspiring and interesting than I had hoped. It has made me want to start shooting again, and look at other photographers work again too. (After quitting it all a few years ago when I got sick of the fashion world!)
Now I have to see if I can ever create a distinctive style!
I raided my Dad’s camera collection this evening and found a couple of different ones to try!
Thank you for all of the links and extra info and I would love to do a darkroom workshop in the future. I will finally set up the equipment I have soon and see how far I get.
Thank you again for such a fun and inspiring course, and for so much invaluable advice and encouragement.”
