Live & In Person!
In this workshop, Myra will demonstrate how you can create award winning images on a shoestring budget. She believes you don’t have to always spend a lot of money to tell a story or create a stunning image. All you need is a vision and develop an eye to find things from the ordinary day to day life and put it together to make an extraordinary image.
