It doesn’t matter where you are in your practice. What matters is that you care about street photography and want to do something meaningful with it.
I came to the workshop expecting to learn something new from Wesley and Shane, but I left with much more than that. Their depth of knowledge, passion, and enthusiasm for sharing their experience were truly inspiring. Beyond the photography itself, it was often a passing conversation or a simple comment that sparked new ideas, built my confidence, and opened my mind to new creative possibilities.
Simon Jones · London, May 2026A great group of people! I had some imposter syndrome before the workshop. I looked at some of their Instagrams and thought “wow, they are all so good”, and that everyone was way better than me. But after everyone shared their fears and experience shooting, it was actually really nice to know they all had the same feelings and thoughts that I do, no matter what stage we are in.
Dionne Wong · London, May 2026At no point did I feel as though I was dreaming too big. I have never felt more motivated to work on a personal project.
It helped me silence the voices telling me I wasn’t good enough as a photographer.
You already have the technical part. What you do not have is a sentence describing what your work is about.
A voice is not a style. It is the thing you keep photographing without deciding to, and it is already in your pictures.
Editing your own work with the coldness you would give a stranger’s is the hardest skill in photography, and the most teachable.
You leave with a project that has a scope, a shape and an end. Not a feeling.
A full day, from finding your voice to planning your work.
Shane leads the first teaching session, covering useful skills, and tips for taking street photos. Followed by a lesson designed to draw out what’s already there in your work: the recurring subjects, the instinctive gestures, the emotional territory you keep returning to without realising it.
The second session moves from voice to action. Drawing on his experience mentoring 100+ photographers with his Process newsletter, and his ninety-six exhibitions at the International Center of Photography in New York, Wesley helps you shape that voice into a project with real direction and actionable steps.
We break for a communal lunch together. Informal conversations, new connections, the kind of exchange that only happens when fifteen people who care about the same things sit down together.
An outdoor group street photography session walking the city with your camera and fourteen other photographers, each with a clearer sense of what they’re looking for.
Shane is an Irish photographer, known for a style of candid street photography that explores the hidden romance and poetry found in everyday city life. He is co-founder and editor-in-chief of Framelines Magazine, a street photography magazine, and has worked with 90+ of the most prominent names in street photography, including Garry Winogrand, Daniel Arnold, Matt Stuart, Melissa O’Shaughnessy and more. Shane brings an editorial eye honed by evaluating thousands of images across ten issues of Framelines to his workshops and portfolio reviews.
Wesley has spent fifteen years at the intersection of photography and curatorial practice. As Curator at Large at the International Center of Photography in New York, one of the world’s foremost photography institutions, he curated over 90 exhibitions and worked directly with hundreds of photographers on developing personal bodies of work. He now brings that experience to mentoring photographers through his newsletter Process, helping people move from a point of view to a finished project.
