Missouri Photo Workshop

The Missouri Photo Workshop, started in 1949, is an opportunity for photographers to hone their craft by capturing a story in small Missouri town under the direction of well-known and well-respected professionals in their field. They have a week and a limited number of frames to find a story, develop a relationship of trust with their subjects and capture moments that tell the story. At night, the photographers go over the day's shoot with their mentors and learn from praise, suggestions and criticism. It really is a baptism by fire. Photographers have to be good to be accepted to the workshop, and they always leave better. One of these days I want to be one of those photographers.
