Street Photography – Master Class (Archive)
    How to shoot really good and funny images?
    LFI Workshop with Craig Semetko from October 14 to 16, 2016

    Craig Semetko is an American photographer focusing on authentic human experience. Born and raised near Detroit, Michigan, Semetko became a professional comedy writer and performer after college and years later discovered photography as another means of storytelling. His comedic background has given him a highly developed sense of the absurd and ironic, resulting in a strong theme of humor throughout his work. Magnum photographer Elliott Erwitt wrote about Semetko’s work: “Good photographs are tough enough to shoot. Really funny ones are even harder. Good and funny photographs observed in nature not arranged or manipulated but simply observed in real time with amazing consistency, constitute a minor miracle.” During the workshop Craig Semetko will present his work, explain his method and provide tips on how to shoot street photography pictures with a twist.
