Why Attend an ERIC KIM Workshop?

ERIC KIM WORKSHOPS: A chance for you to conquer your fears, meet new peers, and take your street photography to the next level.

Invest in experiences, not stuff

The great thing about workshops: they are experiences that stay with you for the rest of your life.

Personally, I’ve attended a MAGNUM workshop with David Alan Harvey and Constantine Manos — and I got so much out of the experience. Their distilled words of wisdom still live with me.

You are lucky — in attending an ERIC KIM WORKSHOP, you gain a distilled version of all the lessons from the masters of photography, and you will get direct feedback on your work, personal guidance, and the chance for you to re-spark your passion for street photography.

If street photography is your passion, there is no instructor or motivational coach as enthusiastic as ERIC KIM.

Join a creative network, and never run out of inspiration

I also feel the best part of the workshops is the chance to meet other passionate street photographers. Your unique chance is to meet other passionate street photographers, and to share your passion with them. By sharing your passion with other passionate folks, you will glow with inspiration.

Not only that, but you will join a creative network after the workshop. After each workshop, we all stay connected, for us to continue to learn, grow, evolve, and share together.

My purpose of an instructor is for you to fulfill your personal maximum — not to just make you shoot like me. I won’t tell you what to do or what not to do — I will only give you specific assignments, tips, and suggestions. I am the most un-dogmatic teacher I know, which will give you more creative flexibility to discover your own unique vision in photography.

Re-igniting your passion for photography

I know how it feels, being stuck in the office, and lacking inspiration. To me, it is worse than death.

A workshop is the best ‘bang for the buck’ investment to re-spark your passion for photography. This is because we combine practical instruction, a constructive learning environment, and a group of passionate individuals– the trifecta of success.

Also, the workshop is philosophical and practical. Philosophical in the sense we will push you to answer the question:

Why do I make pictures?

The workshop will help you find more personal purpose and direction in your photography.

Not only that, but the workshop is practical — less complex theory, and more practical tips, techniques, and instructions to directly apply theoretical concepts in photography for you to make more compelling pictures.

The workshop is all you.

To be honest, the workshop won’t make you a master street photographer in just a few days. However, it will give you the practical skills, tools, and knowledge for you to empower yourself long after the workshop.

Your success as an individual student depends on you. The more effort, hustle, and courage you exhibit in the workshop, the more you will develop, grow, and evolve as a visual artist.
