Using the power of online tools this course will offer the participants the possibility to enhance and improve their photography. This innovative workshop, which will enroll a maximum of 15 students at a time, is unique, with its online worldwide access and offers a one-to-one learning experience.

WHO IS THE WORKSHOP FOR This course is for aspiring documentary photographers who would like to improve and to take their skills to a higher level. Over three very packed weeks and through intensive learning and personal tuition you will become more confident in your abilities to find the best way for you to tell stories using your camera.

COURSE HIGHLIGHTS This workshop is assignment-based and is structured to enrich your personal development as a documentary photographer. Relevant written and visual material will be supplied to accompany the course. As participants shoot in response to the assignment, they will be given one-to-one tuition over the Internet and Skype. Progress will be discussed regularly over the course using Flickr as work base and photographers will be continually assessed. For each workshop the photographers will be enjoying for one day the presence of a special guest expert of the field who will answer the questions posed. Finally, the work produced by the photographers will be published on a dedicated website (photowrap.org) where the participants can upload your stories. As stated, this course will be highly-focused by having each photographer work on a themed assignment which is pertinent to contemporary topics in modern-day documentary photography.

”Photowrap is an ingenious way for ambitious and inquisitive photographers to learn how to enter world of documentary photography. These workshops with Mimi aren't easy - they are designed for people who want to work hard at their photography but with a lot of personal effort and a great teacher there is every chance for rapid improvement and an increase in confidence." Stephen McLaren, photographer and Special Guest Reviewer Photowrap 1st edition (7th-28th March 2011) “After having taken some photography and documentary photography courses over the last few years, I have found that nothing compares to my experience in Photowrap with Mimi Mollica. Not only is he extremely talented, but he has that rare ability to feel intuitively how each photographer wishes to express him/herself at heart, and not only technically, but emotionally. He constantly makes us reach beyond our zone of comfort, and is very demanding, but always positively encourages us to reach higher. Among all the professionals I have worked with, nobody has been that dedicated, and inspiring. My way of photographing has clearly reached another level, and now I just keep asking for more! This course is a gem. ” Valerie Loiret, student Photowrap 1st edition (7th-28th March 2011)
