Join award winning photographer Chris Nunn to get a real insight into working as a professional photographer.
From making, exhibiting and publishing work to building networks and working on commissions for international publications and newspapers, Chris will introduce his practice and talk through some of the challenges he’s faced in his career.
With experience in self-initiated long term projects, Chris will share his knowledge of making work from our exhibition Borderland: Stories from Donbas. Over a six-year period, Chris documented life at the far eastern edge of Ukraine, close to the border of Russia. Working in Europe’s only warzone Chris has recorded people’s everyday lives, their personal narratives and subjective struggles.
Designed as a practical discussion session, Reality Check is your chance to ask a professional photographer how to work in demanding environments, overcome logistical challenges and, essentially, how to keep going when you hit your wall.
This workshop is designed for photographers at all levels looking to gain an insight into the industry, with an opportunity to share your experiences with a like-minded group.
Part of our Tilt/Shift Professional Development programme for photographers.
