“Valerie Jardin is not just a unique and extremely talented photographer, but she's also a wonderful teacher. Taking her Contemplative Photography class taught me much about purposeful and mission-driven photography. Her kind direction, along with a warm and supportive style, made the learning an absolute pleasure.” - Robert Dicks - Ca, USA - 2022 Contemplative photography online class participant.
“Your recent online mentoring program ‘Contemplative photography’ was excellent. Whilst it is hard for an online course to compete with your face to face workshops, what I gained was ongoing advice and encouragement to keep taking photos, I now take my camera with me when ever I go out! “- Val Jenkins - Melbourne, Australia - 2022 Contemplative photography online class participant.
ABOUT THE PROGRAM
Who is it for?
Anyone interested in learning to ‘see with their heart’ and connect with their surroundings on a more authentic level.
How does it work?
The online master class will be presented via Zoom. Participants will also have the opportunity to ask questions. After the class, participants will practice their newly learned skills for 4 weeks. After that time, each student will be asked to submit a selection of photographs for the critique session. The small group will meet for three consecutive critique sessions over a period of 3 months.
The schedule is as follows: Oct. 17, Nov. 16, Dec. 7 & Jan. 6.
How are the critiques?
Valérie is known for her gentle approach. A critique is always constructive, never negative. 48 hours before the critique session you will be asked to submit 5 photographs for review. Each participant will be able to learn and be inspired from their own critique but also from the rest of the group. This is the most important part of the teaching.
When will we meet?
It’s impossible to accommodate every time zone. If you cannot watch live, you will receive a recording to watch when you can. Valérie spends a lot of time in France as well as the United States. For that reason, live sessions will be held around 12 pm US central time, 7 pm Paris time.
Do I need to subscribe to Zoom to take this class?
No, you do not need a Zoom membership to participate in this program.
