Stories We Tell: Online Photography Workshop
Stories We Tell is an inclusive participatory photography project to enable local people with little or no experience of photography to develop the skills necessary to create and share reflections of their own community.
What to expect
Stories We Tell is an inclusive 8-week online photography project facilitated by local photographer, Pierre Bureau, to give those wanting to develop their photography skills within a supportive and friendly group.
This fourth edition of Stories We Tell will be an opportunity for local people to share their personal stories while learning new skills. Each week, you will be given a theme or task and then meet the group every week online to discuss what they’ve been working on. Pierre will then advise and guide you to progress your photography techniques.
No need for a fancy camera – just a smart phone camera or tablet will do the job! If you can’t commit to the whole 8 weeks, that’s totally fine. Just book the dates you can make. To book the 8-week course, just select Monday 6 February in checkout and this will give you access to all sessions. Pierre will create a WhatsApp group for all participants to join. If you’re happy to be part of this group, please provide Pierre with your phone number at the first session.
Please note, this course will take place on Zoom. You must book in advance so you receive the log in details in good time. If you have any questions about how the course will run, please email pierre@mindfulphotolab.com.
The course is £6, and you’ll receive a photozine featuring one of your photographs! The course culminates in a celebratory exhibition at Poplar Union!
This project is proudly supported by the Arts Council Lottery Fund.
About Pierre
I am a photographer and workshop facilitator based in East London. I founded Mindful Photo Lab in 2020 to assist my community through the integration of photography and mindfulness. As a photographer deeply passionate about human resilience and compassion, I aid in finding solutions by conducting photography workshops. These workshops use photography to playfully explore the poetics of everyday life, transforming our fears and anxieties into sources of creativity and inspiration.
