Visual Truths: The Intersection of Images and Words in Documentary Work


How does an artist articulate their work, and do words enhance their photographs? Many strive to develop both visual and written language skills but find themselves excelling in one while struggling to achieve the perfect balance between the two.

In this focused workshop, Ed and Julie draw on their decades of experience as a collaborative writer/photographer/filmmaking team to offer participants a comprehensive exploration of effective storytelling. The workshop not only covers best practices for producing long-term photographic projects and multi-platform narratives but also provides expert guidance on writing for and about these projects.

Participants engage in hands-on exercises designed to refine their skills in articulating their vision and intent, ensuring that their words complement and deepen the impact of their images. This immersive experience equips individuals with the tools needed to enhance their creative expression and effectively communicate their artistic narratives
