Portfolio Reviews
As part of its mission to support talent development, Nuku Studio, together with its partners, organises regular portfolio reviews for photographers at all stages of their career. The participating photographers take away valuable feedback on how to develop their photography projects conceptually and artistically, and how to build a brand for themselves. These meet-ups also help build a strong and active photo community in Ghana.
"In a world that is rapidly evolving and changing permanent learning is now more necessary than ever before. The meet-up at Nuku Studio was a great learning experience for all of us and has brought us all an enriching experience. I'm confident that it is a start of more things to come soon," said Lars Boering, Managing Director of World Press Photo Foundation after the first portfolio review session in 2018.
