Photography can be so much more than a creative medium—it can also be a tool for self exploration and discovery.

Photographer Desdemona Dallas has always used their art as a tool for better understanding their identity and the world. In this class—recorded using Zoom and featuring participation from the Skillshare community—they share their process of asking intimate questions and trying to find answers through the lens.

Throughout this 35-minute class, you’ll get:

• Eye-opening journaling prompts, designed to both help you access your innermost self and dream up a gorgeous photo shoot
• Tips and tricks for using color, lighting, and editing to evoke a specific emotion in your photographs
• Expert guidance on the differences in power and emotion you can elicit with one photograph as opposed to a conceptual photography series

This class will be perfect for photographers of all levels, whether you’re just starting out or are a professional looking to access some new inspiration. Grab a pen, paper, and any kind of camera (even your phone will do!) and join Desdemona for a reflective journey, using photography to discover new parts of yourself.
