Conceptual Photography: From Idea to Image (2-Session Workshop)
Conceptual Photography: From Idea to Image (2-Session Workshop)
Registration: $100 per student
Dates: Monday, March 23 & Wednesday, March 25, 2026
Time: 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM
Capacity: 16 participants
This two-session workshop explores how strong photographic ideas are formed and translated into finished images. Led by Alex Eischeid, Uncanny Art House’s exhibiting artist for the month of March, the class focuses on concept-driven photography rather than technical instruction alone.
Session One: Concept Development (March 23)
The first session centers on shaping photographic ideas before picking up the camera. Participants will explore intention, narrative, symbolism, and visual planning, examining how conceptual decisions influence composition, lighting, and execution. Discussion and examples will guide students through building a clear creative framework for their work.
Session Two: Execution & Demonstration (March 25)
The second session focuses on translating a developed concept into a finished photograph. Participants will observe real-time setup, decision-making, and problem-solving as the image is created. After the workshop, attendees will receive access to a recorded edit of the final image, allowing them to revisit techniques and workflows at their own pace.
This workshop is ideal for photographers interested in strengthening their conceptual thinking and understanding how ideas evolve into cohesive visual work.
