The Photographic Process: Five Week Exhibition Workshop

In this edition of The Photographic Process, participants will study the while developing a cohesive body of black and white photographs through guided photowalks, critique, sequencing, editing, printmaking, and exhibition development. This workshop explores photography not simply as image making, but as a complete artistic process, centred around understanding how photographs made on the street and throughout everyday life evolve from captured moments into finished fine art experienced in galleries and physical space.

Each photographer will produce a one of a kind museum quality archival exhibition print for the final public exhibition, professionally printed and custom framed by Legere Fine Art Services using museum glass, archival materials, and professional museum quality framing methods. The finished exhibition print and custom framing package represents over $500 in professional production and presentation value.

Participants will keep their finished exhibition piece, and will also receive a complete set of twenty working prints from the collaborative editing and sequencing sessions, one signed artist proof print, and an archival print portfolio featuring all exhibited photographs from the final exhibition.

Led by Andrew Legere, founder of Legere Fine Art Services, alongside invited guests and participating arts professionals, this workshop draws from a lifetime devoted to photography, printmaking, and exhibition presentation. Andrew has spent close to three decades pursuing photography, beginning in the darkroom as a young teenager, and later living, working, and photographing throughout dozens of countries around the world. Alongside his photographic practice, he has spent nearly a decade working professionally in custom framing and exhibition presentation, collaborating internationally with artists, galleries, collectors, museums, and institutions through an approach grounded in craftsmanship, conservation, and a deep respect for the photographic print.

Designed for photographers interested in fine art photography, documentary work, street photography, and the photographic print, this workshop offers a rare opportunity to experience the complete process of creating, refining, and exhibiting photographic work from beginning to end.
