Street photography in China: A workshop with Sue Anne Tay – March 18th – Suzhou

Posted: March 14th, 2012 | No Comments »

I have to give a quick plug for this event with the excellent Sue Anne Tay doing a masterclass out in Suzhou at the Suzhou bookworm International Literary Festival. I think it might originally have been my idea so if it all falls to pieces she’s going to kill me! But it won’t – hopefully they’ll post the best (only the best, none of that “prizes for everyone” nonsense thank you)

For the first time ever, Sue Anne Tay of the popular photo blog Shanghai Street Stories will be conducting a street photography workshop right here in Suzhou. In one afternoon, Sue Anne will discuss the allure of street photography as a way to experience China and share her approach to shooting in Shanghai’s streets. Later, she will lead participants on a shooting jaunt in the busy streets of Suzhou and wrap up the workshop with an informal post-shoot discussion session back at The Bookworm Suzhou.

Workshop Agenda:
