    About This Class
    The fast-paced world we live in today bombards us with an overwhelming amount of daily information and distractions, courtesy of news, social media, music, ads, and the like, often delivered through our smartphones, laptops and TVs. This information overload can lead to stress, mental health issues, creative block, and fatigue.

    Practising mindfulness can help you intentionally slow down, stay present, and appreciate your life's small yet memorable moments. Photography can provide a healthy escape from the daily buzz of life. Through the camera's viewfinder, we can observe life differently. It turns us into observers and witnesses of the world unfolding before us.

    Becoming a photographer can help us become more present and observant, allowing us to see beyond the surface and notice important details we may otherwise miss. These details are essential for telling an in-depth visual story.

    In this class, renowned documentary photographer KC Nwakalor shares daily photography exercises that inspire us to become more self-aware and present in the simple, mundane activities of our daily lives. We can use these moments to improve our visual storytelling skills.

    What you will learn:

    1. The connection between mindfulness and visual storytelling.
    2. Develop an acute awareness of your surroundings and gain new perspectives.
    3. Engage in daily exercises that will push your creative boundaries.
    4. Adopt creative habits that would help you stay motivated.
