StreetShootr’s Take
I have attended the Eric Kim street photography workshop in the past and I can tell you that it was worth every penny. The workshop really kickstarted my appreciation of street photography and set me on a path that would lead me toward a life guided by the creation of photographic images. There’s no doubt in my mind that you’ll leave his workshop with a better understanding of street photography and your own work. It is time well spent.
Eric is one of the most passionate people I’ve ever met (street photographer or otherwise) and he genuinely cares about helping his students improve their photography. His workshops come with a money-back guarantee so if you’re not satisfied you have nothing to worry about.
If you’re in the Toronto area and are interested in taking your street photography to the next level then definitely check out the Eric Kim street photography workshop.
