Iris PhotoCollective Visual Lab is offering a unique photography course that will examine visual storytelling in the classical vein of photojournalism. Through collaborative exercises, discussions, critiques and lectures, students will develop the skills necessary to reveal a strong visual story in their photographic images. Students will explore the works of photograph masters Henri Cartier-Bresson, Roy DeCarava, W. Eugene Smith, Margaret Bourke-White, and other acclaimed photographers.

This ten-week visual communications course focuses on special techniques and strategies for understanding photography through analytical thinking. The course is led by award-winning photojournalists Carl Juste and C.W. Griffin. A top visual communicator in the field of photography will also contribute as special guest speaker.
