Their exhibition “Ubusukunemini (Day and Night),” featured in PhotoSaintGermain, is a portrait of Thokoza, the township where they were born and raised, exploring the community via its present, its history, and its memory. With intertwining sensibilities, they take the pulse of the nascent democracy, questioning what it means to be “born free.” https://player.vimeo.com/video/1045799489 812 2026-03-03T15:49:31-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/huq-i-seek-no-favor-artists-respond-to-the-abortion-ban-ashima-yadava-catchlight-2023/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/vimeo-10732-1.jpg ‘Huq: I Seek No Favor’: Artists Respond to the Abortion Ban | Ashima Yadava | CatchLight 2023 On January 22, 1973, a landmark decision by the U.S. Supreme Court in Roe v.

Gonzalez will be in conversation with photo editor Elizabeth Krist. “This is about a world that, to me, decades later, is neither forgotten nor lost. It’s a place where my mind and heart were stirred to life by the sound of Papi playing guitar by our bedroom window on Beck Street. Those boleros—which he had learned as a child in Puerto Rico—were beautiful and heartbreaking, dramatic and romantic. They were about a place that was physically gone, but ever-present—if only in his mind. Yet those songs kept him rooted to Caguas, a town he left at 14 years of age, and would never again see before his death in 1980. I would learn to relate. The Bronx has always centered me. The stories of those who stayed, and the friendships of people like Jacob and Father Flynn, showed how to rebuild a community that had been shunted aside, abandoned, and incinerated. From community gardens to street fairs, from Hunts Point to Crotona—this series documents the random encounters with people and places that occur on the margins, geographically and otherwise. Along stretches of industrial waterfronts, parks and neighborhoods, I find myself at home, emotionally above all. I start random conversations with people about anything—the kinds of encounters that have always kept us together in good times and bad. My Nuyorican generation learned during the fires long ago how to weave through cultures, classes, languages, and even attitudes—knowing that our stories go way beyond victimhood, or being ignored. These images, which span four decades, may not be what you expect—either of the Bronx or of me—especially if you’ve been accustomed to the usual urban tropes (or marketing plans). They have everything to do with the Bronx. They have nothing to do with the Bronx.

The 11th Carmignac Photojournalism Award funded the project. In this VII Insider talk, VII agency photographer Ziyah Gafic and Finbarr discuss the project’s evolution and execution, the history and politics of photojournalism in the Congo, the importance of diversity and representation in photojournalistic narratives, and using institutional power and privilege to lift up underrepresented voices and develop the next generation of storytellers.

Students in the Bronx Junior Photo League (BJPL), the Bronx Documentary Center’s (BDC) free documentary storytelling and college success program for 6th through 12th grade students, have been documenting social justice issues and community-based stories since 2013. The BJPL–and the work the students make–is the heart of the BDC’s mission: to use community-based documentary practice and education to explore vital issues, stimulate critical thought, and drive social change. In March 2020, in response to the coronavirus pandemic, the BDC made the decision to suspend all programs and move to remote learning. Our students, who are used to working in a program based on the ability to go outside and photograph in the community, quickly learned to turn their lens to the vulnerable space of their private lives. They created visual and written explorations of their experiences during this time, using photography as a tool of reflection and connection with themselves, their families, and their communities. photoville.nyc/connection-and-reflection-during-covid-19/ https://player.vimeo.com/video/497480471 3374 2026-05-13T11:22:33-07:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/conversation-with-the-winners-of-the-2020-zeke-award-presented-with-social-documentary-network/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/vimeo-10939.jpg “Conversation with the Winners of the 2020 Zeke Award” presented with Social Documentary Network CONVERSATIONS WITH THE WINNERS OF THE 2020 ZEKE AWARD presented with Social Documentary Network Featuring Kristen Emack, Jason Houston, and Nicoló Filippo Rosso Photoville 2020 Talks On-demand recordings are made possible in partnership with PhotoWIngs with additional support by the Philip and Edith Leonian Foundation ZEKE Award winners Kristen Emack, Jason Houston, and Nicoló Filippo Rosso will present their winning projects and discuss their views on the state of documentary photography today.

Kristen’s project, Cousins looks at her daughter and three cousins, four Black girls growing up in Massachusetts. “My hope is that when they look back on this work, they will see the beauty of their childhood together, and when they look for everyday representations of themselves in the world, they will find themselves here, in this work we made together, reflected with love.” Nicoló’s project, Exodus is an investigation of the crisis in Venezuela, and a close look at some of the millions who are fleeing their homeland for Colombia and other neighboring countries, because of the lack of security, access to food, medicine, and essential services, and loss of income due to the political situation. photoville.nyc/online/conversation-with-the-winners-of-the-2020-zeke-award/ https://player.vimeo.com/video/497828341 4459 2026-05-13T11:22:12-07:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/crafting-your-career-grant-writing-and-proposals-with-diversify-photo/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-8694.jpg “Crafting Your Career: Grant Writing and Proposals” with Diversify Photo CRAFTING YOUR CAREER: GRANT WRITING AND PROPOSALS presented with Diversify Photo with support from Leica Camera USA Featuring Judy Cai, Veronika Châtelain, Danielle Villasana, and moderated by Laura Roumanos Photoville 2021 Talks On-demand recordings are made possible in partnership with PhotoWings Photoville is proud to partner with Diversify Photo to host their second set of professional development workshops together.

It is a fast moving public sphere that has become unwieldy in part because it creates so much instant visibility that we are often unable to keep up. We don’t yet understand how to read visually in the way these platforms demand, and so we all end up attempting to communicate in a language we don’t yet know. This talk will be an introduction into our project, Delirious Visibility, which works under the information deluge as a critique. Using images by Ruddy Roye and words by Rebecca Lee Sanchez, it brings to the fore those conditions and causes for the events we are watching unfold, while teaching viewers how to look upon them with a clearer understanding that bridges the information on the screen and the material reality on the ground, and makes visible the faces from those communities affected by the conversations that inform our politics and policy, as a reminder that the fates of real lives are at stake. Further, we will explain how we are all agents in the production of a history that relies on our image-making and storytelling, and why it is imperative that we understand every move we make as one belonging to a Future Historicity. photoville.nyc/2021-delirious-visibility/ https://player.vimeo.com/video/665027948 4748 2022-01-11T23:59:04+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/demystifying-digital-security-practical-guidance-for-journalists-with-ela-stapley/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-8736.jpg “Demystifying Digital Security: Practical Guidance for Journalists” with Ela Stapley From surveillance to identity theft, journalists face a range of digital security threats as they go about their work.

Social justice is not only a utopian goal of equality, it is also how we embrace the process and how we approach our stories. I hope to be getting closer and closer with care, respect, solidarity, understanding, mutual support, honesty, and compassion.” –Oscar Castillo We’re sharing some inside looks into the processes and experiences of our 2020 Photography and Social Justice Fellows as their projects near completion.

In this lecture on Feb. 14 at 10:00 EST, she describes how she covered this special community as a long-term project, what challenges she faced, and addresses questions about ethics and communication. In Russia, people with special needs are often stigmatized. They are not considered fully human with the ability to learn and socialize, and they are often unemployed. But there is a place where life is different—and better—for some of them. Svetlana is a unique social village in Leningrad Oblast, Russia. This community allows intellectually disabled people to live freely and fully, supported by tutors and volunteers. For the residents these roles mean nothing. This place is not a boarding school or a clinic. No one is controlled and the doors are always opened. Residents don’t draw a line between healthy and unhealthy, normal and abnormal. Everyone is valued as an individual. Capabilities and abilities are the only things that matter. The residents of Svetlana believe in the person you can become despite your past. Svetlana is a community of about 40 residents. They live in four large houses and have a garden, a farm, a bakery, a carpenter’s workshop, and more. The residents survive through subsistence farming and work despite their different abilities. Villagers are served five meals a day, visit the sauna on weekends, and perform plays on holidays. People with special needs are free to go out, work, have friends, and fall in love. They can engage in any employment or creative activities. For example, at first, some residents could not even hold a spoon, but now some bake bread for all the inhabitants of the village or have become fine actors in the community performances. https://player.vimeo.com/video/732987375 3871 2026-03-03T15:53:22-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/teaching-creativity-a-case-for-art-education-presented-with-seven-new-york-city-public-schools/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/vimeo-10971.jpg “Teaching Creativity: A Case for Art Education” presented with Seven New York City Public Schools TEACHING CREATIVITY: A CASE FOR ART EDUCATION presented by Photoville with Seven New York City Public Schools Photoville 2020 Talks On-demand recordings are made possible in partnership with PhotoWings with additional support by the Philip and Edith Leonian Foundation.

Relentlessly curious, thoroughly urbane, and fluent in multiple languages, Dickey had an uncanny way of discovering how the levers of power worked—and then holding accountable those who pulled them. At the time of his sudden death of a heart attack in July 2020, he had worked at the highest levels of journalism for almost five decades—traveling to more than 30 countries for outlets including the Washington Post, Newsweek and NBC News. Along the way, he authored seven books and appeared countless times on television news programs. He strongly believed in the power of multimedia storytelling. His path to journalism, in fact, started behind a camera. He received a graduate degree in documentary filmmaking from Boston University before landing his first job at the Washington Post. Even as his career shifted toward writing, Dickey retained his passion for photography. He never left home without a camera around his neck or in his pocket. This panel will focus on his photography and how his aesthetic defined reporting and writing. Join former editor of Newsweek Mark Whitaker, journalist Barbie Latza Nadeau, photographer Peter Turnley, and CNN political analyst John Avlon as they bring to life a trailblazer in the world of journalism. photoville.nyc/2021-foreign-correspondent-photographer-storyteller/ https://player.vimeo.com/video/665016295 3408 2022-01-11T23:04:54+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/the-power-of-photographic-storytelling-presented-with-nyu-tisch-department-of-photography-and-imaging/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/vimeo-10967.jpg “The Power of Photographic Storytelling” presented with NYU Tisch Department of Photography and Imag THE POWER OF PHOTOGRAPHIC STORYTELLING presented by Photoville with NYU Tisch Department of Photography and Imaging Photoville 2020 Talks On-demand recordings are made possible in partnership with PhotoWings with additional support by the Philip and Edith Leonian Foundation.

Their photographs reveal evolutions in our interactions and traditions, how we use (or have stopped using) public spaces, inequality and unrest, economic strain, and demands for justice. Photographers Sheila Pree Bright (Atlanta, U.S.A.), Yolanda Escobar Jiménez (Quito, Ecuador), Brian Otieno (Nairobi, Kenya), and Xiaojie Ouyang (Wuhan, China), discuss what it was like to return to places they had photographed before and make new photographs.

As the World Health Organization reports, today, most people can expect to live into their sixties and beyond. Indeed, by 2030, 1 in 6 people in the world will be aged 60 years or over. Every country in the world is experiencing growth in both the size and the proportion of older persons in the population, and all countries face significant challenges to ensure that their health and social systems can cope with and benefit from this demographic shift. This shift and the challenges it brings stem from dramatically improved life expectancy. According to Our World in Data, “Since 1900 the global average life expectancy has more than doubled and is now above 70 years [72 years, to be exact]. The inequality of life expectancy is still very large across and within countries. in 2019 the country with the lowest life expectancy is the Central African Republic with 53 years, in Japan life expectancy is 30 years longer.” In this event, we will discuss a major new documentary project–1 in 6 by 2030–led by Sara Terry, Ed Kashi, and Ilvy Njiokiktjien. This global, collaborative project will bring together photographers worldwide to produce compelling ways of humanizing what is, despite its social significance, a dry statistic on aging and demography. https://player.vimeo.com/video/894238746 4644 2023-12-13T19:29:25+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/1in6by2030-presents-climate-elders-lives-reshaped-by-the-climate-crisis/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/vimeo-10117-1.jpg 1in6by2030 Presents ‘Climate Elders’: Lives Reshaped by the Climate Crisis A 77-minute video, from the VII Insider collection of the PhotoWings Media Archive. https://player.vimeo.com/video/1147398152 4608 2026-03-03T15:48:08-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/2026-catchlight-visual-storytelling-summit-adam-perez/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/vimeo-12056.jpg 2026 CatchLight Visual Storytelling Summit: Adam Perez A 16-minute video, from the CatchLight collection of the PhotoWings Media Archive. https://player.vimeo.com/video/1193788485 966 2026-05-21T11:10:14-07:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/2026-catchlight-visual-storytelling-summit-demetri-broxton/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/vimeo-12050.jpg 2026 CatchLight Visual Storytelling Summit: Demetri Broxton A 15-minute video, from the CatchLight collection of the PhotoWings Media Archive. https://player.vimeo.com/video/1193788488 906 2026-05-21T11:10:09-07:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/2026-catchlight-visual-storytelling-summit-ellen-schmidt/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/vimeo-12052.jpg 2026 CatchLight Visual Storytelling Summit: Ellen Schmidt An 8-minute video, from the CatchLight collection of the PhotoWings Media Archive. https://player.vimeo.com/video/1193788487 467 2026-05-21T11:10:11-07:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/2026-catchlight-visual-storytelling-summit-elodie-mailliet/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/vimeo-12054.jpg 2026 CatchLight Visual Storytelling Summit: Elodie Mailliet A 9-minute video, from the CatchLight collection of the PhotoWings Media Archive. https://player.vimeo.com/video/1193788486 549 2026-05-21T11:10:12-07:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/2026-catchlight-visual-storytelling-summit-kevin-wurm/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/vimeo-12048.jpg 2026 CatchLight Visual Storytelling Summit: Kevin Wurm A 7-minute video, from the CatchLight collection of the PhotoWings Media Archive. https://player.vimeo.com/video/1193788502 428 2026-05-21T11:10:07-07:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/2026-catchlight-visual-storytelling-summit-michael-indriolo/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/vimeo-12046.jpg 2026 CatchLight Visual Storytelling Summit: Michael Indriolo A 5-minute video, from the CatchLight collection of the PhotoWings Media Archive. https://player.vimeo.com/video/1193788504 318 2026-05-21T11:10:05-07:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/2026-catchlight-visual-storytelling-summit-tierney-gearon/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/vimeo-12044.jpg 2026 CatchLight Visual Storytelling Summit: Tierney Gearon A 17-minute video, from the CatchLight collection of the PhotoWings Media Archive. https://player.vimeo.com/video/1193788516 1044 2026-05-21T11:10:03-07:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/a-conversation-on-widowhood/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-8970.jpg A Conversation on Widowhood Presented in partnership with the Pulitzer Center Sunday, Sept 17 2017 Featuring: Amy Toensing and Whitney Johnson In many regions of the world widowhood marks a “social death” for a woman – casting her and her children out to the margins of society.

The Blue Skies Project has taken Anton six years to produce, for which he has visited every single former Nazi concentration camp in Europe to make a single polaroid photograph of the blue sky above. His documentation process relies on location coordinates, incorporates numeric data, and closely follows good weather reports showing the days of blue sky above each of the 1,078 identified locations. The result is a work that addresses the question of collective memory, second-hand witnessing, trauma, systematic injustice and the experience of place, through representations of the Nazi Germany concentration camp system from 1933-1945. The Blue Skies Project features a sound piece by Ruben Samama, and is curated by Monica Allende. Ilvy talks to Anton about how he approaches his work, his projects, his ever changing relationship to photography, and his close collaborations with fellow artists and professionals. https://player.vimeo.com/video/637265499 4375 2026-03-03T15:54:59-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/a-love-letter-to-barbados-deborah-anderson-photoville-education-field-trip/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/vimeo-10371-1.jpg A LOVE LETTER TO BARBADOS | Deborah Anderson | Photoville Education Field Trip Award winning filmmaker and Leica photographer Deborah Anderson, has created iconic imagery for the covers of pop music albums and magazines, as well as for the walls of an expansive clientele of private homes and landmark hotels worldwide. Of Indigenous, Black, Irish and Scottish descent, her photographic work has hung in prestigious galleries both in Europe and the US along with having created three fine art photographic books. Most recently Deborah produced and directed the feature documentary film ‘Women Of The White Buffalo’ released in 2022, making the top 10 documentary list on iTunes in its first week of opening and winning numerous awards, elevating Indigenous voices globally. "I grew up on the island of Barbados and have a deep connection to the people, the culture and the land. It is and always will be home to me. For this next series of work, I want to share this culture and important history of the island by way of highlighting stories of the local people, the land and historic landmarks with still photography and film using the Leica SL 2s. With all the beauty, lush landscapes and turquoise ocean, there is a tangible magic that permeates the soul, and so it is hard to believe the island was the birthplace of British slave society. I know the importance of bringing these stories to the forefront, as by way of sharing them we heal our past wounds, honor our ancestors who walked before us and empower our future generations." https://player.vimeo.com/video/864071794 760 2026-03-03T15:51:20-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/a-new-vision-of-the-indigenous-narrative/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/vimeo-10919.jpg A New Vision of the Indigenous Narrative A New Vision of the Indigenous Narrative Presented by Natives Photograph Featuring Tailyr Irvine, Josué Rivas, Thomas Ryan RedCorn, Brian Adams, and Cara Romero Photoville 2019 Talks On-demand recordings are made possible in partnership with PhotoWIngs with additional support by the Philip and Edith Leonian Foundation Cara Romero (Chemehuevi), Tailyr Irvine (Confederated Salish & Kootenai), Brian Adams (Inupiaq), Ryan RedCorn (Osage), and Josué Rivas (Mexica & Otomi), are five Indigenous photographers working across Turtle Island (North America).

This story is told through hundreds of letters shared by Sheila Rule, a former New York Timescorrespondent, and Joe Robinson, a man serving a prison sentence of 25 years to life. Despite a 20 year age difference, and undeterred by the physical barriers of prison, their love has unstoppable momentum. Intimate and nuanced, this short film visits the space between compassion and passion, revealing a man who transcends his crime and a woman who dares to break the rules. In the process, they shine a light on the practice of mass incarceration in the US. “Sheila & Joe” premiered at the Woodstock Film Festival in 2021 and received Second Place for Documentary Daily Life from Pictures of the Year International 2020. The film was published on NPR’s The Picture Show in 2021. https://player.vimeo.com/video/637266733 3657 2021-10-20T23:41:21+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/a-reading-with-sally-mann-hold-still-look3-2015/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-9206.jpg A Reading with Sally Mann – Hold Still – LOOK3 2015 Sally Mann, a 2007 LOOK3 Featured Artist, returns in 2015 to LOOK3 to read from her memoir Hold Still at the Paramount Theater along the Charlottesville Historic Downtown Mall. "The best quality of Hold Still—a book that strikes me as an instant classic among Southern memoirs of the last 50 years—is its ambient sense of an original, come-as-you-are life that has been well lived and well observed. It’s a book that dials open the aperture on your own senses.

The two are a natural match: photographers need funding to tell their stories, and philanthropy needs photographers to show why their funding matters. But what makes a story compelling enough to make someone want to give money so the story will be told? In this session, foundation director and photographer Tim Greyhavens will share his experience in navigating the sometimes confusing yet rewarding world of fundraising for a photographic project. Whether you’re approaching a foundation, a government agency, an individual or an online audience, you’ll find something in this talk that will help you understand the buzzwords, processes, politics and personalities of philanthropy. www.wilburforce.org www.linkedin.com/in/tim-greyhavens Presentation from the 2016 Blue Earth Alliance Collaborations for Cause conference in Seattle Washington at the Seattle Public Library.

Over the past two decades, Lynsey Addario has photographed stories on war and social justice issues, such as the humanitarian crisis in Darfur and the civil uprising in Libya. Lynsey’s second book, Of Love and War, (2018), takes a broad look at issues including the long war in Afghanistan, as well as the Syrian refugee crisis, which has displaced roughly half of the population of Syria. John Moore has spent the last decade photographing the issues of undocumented immigration into the United States from Central America and Mexico. Traveling the entire length of the U.S.-Mexico border, John has photographed asylum seekers fleeing violence, migrants searching for economic opportunity and U.S. federal agents as they execute the administration’s aggressive response to pursue, detain and deport them. These stories and more are featured in John’s book, Undocumented (2018). Moore’s June, 2018 image of a young asylum seeker crying, as her mother was apprehended by border patrol, was named the 2019 World Press Photo of the Year. This year he also received the Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award for his decade of photography of immigration issues. We are thrilled to present this very special event, an onstage conversation between Lynsey and John.

Is it possible to picture the politics of a place? What are the costs and benefits of asking these questions from the position of the outsider? In this event, Mexican-born photographer Arturo Soto discusses these themes in his work about the British university city of Oxford following the controversial “Brexit” referendum that led to the UK leaving the European Union. Soto’s work has been published in his book “A Certain Logic of Expectations”, which is described as proposing a counter-narrative of Oxford. Drawing on psycho-geography, and using an interplay of words and text, the work reflects on the contested relationship between visual representation and the history and myths of a particular location. https://player.vimeo.com/video/663503479 3260 2022-01-07T22:58:33+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/ashley-gilbertson-why-photographs-matter-more-than-ever/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/vimeo-10191-1.jpg Ashley Gilbertson: Why Photographs Matter More Than Ever From 10 years embedded in Iraq, to capturing the quiet, intimate portraits of the bedrooms of fallen soldiers, to documenting the chaotic moments at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021 (Finalist, Group Entry Pulitzer Prize), Ashley Gilbertson’s photography offers a unique and profound perspective on conflict.

He is the founder and present Director of www.wakaphotos.com, the only photo agency based in the Pacific islands. After several years in Sydney working on alternative lifestyle magazines, Bohane’s first foreign reportage assignment was covering the Vietnamese army withdrawal from Cambodia in 1989. He then spent the next four years based in South and South East Asia covering the wars of Cambodia, Burma and Afghanistan. He secured the first interview with Golden Triangle opium warlord General Khun Sa in 1991 after he was indicted by the US. In 1992 he was reportedly the first western traveler to go overland from Afghanistan to Moscow in decades, as the Soviet Union was collapsing. In 1992 he was based in London covering Northern Ireland and Europe. In 1994, Bohane returned to Australia and began covering the much under-reported Pacific region. Since then he has focused on “kastom and conflict” throughout Melanesia and indigenous Australia, documenting cults, cargo cults and new religious movements across the region. While covering every major conflict in the South Pacific – East Timor, West Papua, Maluku, PNG, Solomon Islands, Bougainville, Vanuatu, Fiji and New Caledonia, he traveled and lived with a variety of tribal, cult and rebel groups and was thereby able to secure the first pictures of BRA leader Francis Ona in Bougainville in 1994 and the only interview and pictures of Guadalcanal warlord Harold Keke, before he surrendered to Australian and RAMSI troops in the Solomon Islands in 2003. His coverage of Indonesia included interviews with the commander of Laskar Jihad in Ambon, OPM Commanders in West Papua and Falantil Commanders in East Timor. He has the largest personal photo archive of the South Pacific in the world.

After Wonderland was published to great acclaim in 2008, Jason worked for a while as a security guard at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City (guarding “Looking In: Robert Frank’s ‘The Americans.’”) before returning east. The result of his wanderings through the Middle East, Russia, and Europe, Black Garden and Departure Lounge complete his trilogy with photos from his travels after Wonderland’s publication as well as from his archive from 1991-2017. Indeed, Jason said in an interview that the title of the last book refers to a room near the front door of a loft Jason shared with other photojournalists where they would wait for taxis to arrive to take them to the airport. Each book has 314 photos numbered sequentially through all 3 books with 9 chapters. Jason and moderator Ziyah Gafic discuss Jason’s approach to long-term projects, editing and sequences of the books, and touch on bookmaking and publishing. Jason is co-owner of Red Hook Editions in Brooklyn, and co-editor of Dog Food photo zine.

According to the publisher’s blurb: “If the decisive moment reflects reality in tune with the photographer’s intuition, flawlessly combining composition and timing, then the abandoned moment is the consequence of a fractional instant of surrender. This collection, made over a 40-year period by renowned photographer Ed Kashi, reveals imprecise glimpses of transitory events filled with frenetic energy – the chaos of everyday life. Embodying photography’s intrinsic power, they preserve moments that can never occur again in exactly the same time and space.” https://player.vimeo.com/video/731206577 3489 2022-07-19T01:48:51+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/book-club-ed-kashi-the-cali-years/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/vimeo-10782-1.jpg Book Club – Ed Kashi, The Cali Years The Cali Years is a 25-year collection of Ed Kashi’s archive from 1979-2004, from his time spent living in California.

The Bosnian War – which killed 100,000 civilians and soliders, displaced more than two million people, and saw tens of thousands of women raped – was long regarded, until the Russian invasion of Ukraine, as Europe’s deadliest conflict since World War II. NATO airstrikes at the end of August 1995 – after the Srebrenica genocide and prompted by the shelling of the Sarajevo marketplace that month – forced Republika Srpska forces to retreat and led to negotiations that produced the Dayton Peace Agreement in December 1995. Based on ethnic divisions and secured by the international community, the Dayton agreement has resulted in a three-decades-long fragile peace. In this event, VII photographers who covered the Bosnian War will review how they reported the conflict – with an emphasis on the civilian experience – and reflect on both what was and was not photographed, as well as the impact their images had (or did not have). The discussion will also focus on what lessons can be learned from the Bosnian experience for visual journalists working in conflict zones today.

Documenting the ongoing war and preserving that documentation is a historical necessity. In this event, Katya Sergatskova, Eugene Safonov, and Emine Ziyatdinova gave us a first look at the Ukraine War Photo Archive they are building to preserve documentary visual materials about the Russian invasion and to support photographers who cover the events. The Warchive platform will use technology from the Distant Viewing Lab at the University of Richmond in the U.S. to create an easy-to-use open and interactive platform. Users will be able to search the large photography collection by date, location, author, and theme. The images will be preserved on servers outside of Ukraine so they can not be destroyed. The project intends to launch a beta version of the platform in early 2023 with images from 100 photographers. https://player.vimeo.com/video/830398234 4073 2023-05-26T00:30:35+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/camille-seaman-preserving-legacy-in-photography/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-9488.jpg Camille Seaman - Preserving Legacy in Photography A 3-minute video featuring Camille Seaman, from the PhotoWings Media Archive. https://player.vimeo.com/video/54633145 196 2012-11-30T21:24:14+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/carlos-javier-ortiz-the-ferguson-effect/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-8831.jpg Carlos Javier Ortiz: The Ferguson Effect?

There, hungry microbes devour it, releasing carbon dioxide and methane gases. These potent greenhouse gases, added to the levels already in the atmosphere, fuel a dangerous feedback cycle. The massive amount of carbon stored in Arctic permafrost soil—four times more than all the vegetation on Earth—has been described as a ‘carbon bomb.’ https://player.vimeo.com/video/322150928 1903 2019-03-08T03:38:34+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/christopher-morris-look3-2016-artist-talk-2/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-9032.jpg Christopher Morris – LOOK3 2016 Artist Talk 2016 LOOK3 Artist Christopher Morris has been credited with redefining political coverage in America during his years covering the White House (from 2000 until 2009), and has expanded his portfolio to include work from the world of fashion.

Born in Madrid, Spain, Daniel Beltrá is a photographer based in Seattle, Washington. His passion for conservation is evident in images of our environment that are evocatively poignant. The most striking large-scale photographs by Beltrá are images shot from the air. This perspective gives the viewer a wider context to the beauty and destruction he witnesses, as well as revealing a delicate sense of scale. After two months of photographing the Deepwater Horizon Gulf Oil Spill, he produced many visually arresting images of the man-made disaster. Over the past two decades, Beltrá’s work has taken him to all seven continents, including several expeditions to the Brazilian Amazon, the Arctic, the Southern Oceans and the Patagonian ice fields. For his work on the Gulf Oil Spill, in 2011 he received the Wildlife Photographer of the Year Award and the Lucie Award for the International Photographer of the Year - Deeper Perspective,. His SPILL photos toured the world independently and as part of the Prix Pictet exhibitions. In 2009, Beltrá received the prestigious Prince’s Rainforest Project award granted by Prince Charles. Other highlights include the BBVA Foundation award in 2013 and the inaugural “Global Vision Award” from the Pictures of the Year International in 2008. In 2006, 2007 and 2018 he received awards for his work in the Amazon from World Press Photo. Daniel’s work has been published by the most prominent international publications including The New Yorker, Time, Newsweek, The New York Times, Le Monde, and El Pais, amongst many others.

The tools of warfare include chemical weapons, terrorists compete using visual propaganda, and media literacy lags. The critical line between documentation and exploitation is trickier than ever to define. This conversation among experts presents a penetrating look at the struggles of the craft and the practitioners who keep it alive, from brushes with death on the frontlines, to the battles for space, resources, and attention in the media. Despite these obstacles, they remain true to a purpose, one that is palpable as they celebrate the crucial value of journalism alongside remarkable success stories: from changing the life of a single individual, to raising broad awareness about human rights issues. https://player.vimeo.com/video/498298978 3335 2026-05-13T11:22:03-07:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/covering-news-topics-through-a-sensitive-and-prepared-lens-with-taiwo-aina/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/vimeo-10137-1.jpg Covering news topics through a sensitive—and prepared—lens with Taiwo Aina In this course you’ll learn how to approach difficult topics with care, as well as how to prepare logistically, emotionally, and ethically before, during, and after an assignment.

The conflict has plunged the nation into what the UN has described as “one of the worst humanitarian nightmares in recent history.” Tens of thousands have died, millions have been displaced, and hunger and disease are widespread. About 11.3 million people have been forced to leave their homes, with nearly 2.95 million crossing into neighboring countries like Chad and South Sudan. There, underfunded aid agencies are struggling to provide even the most basic necessities. In August of this year, Nicolò Filippo Rosso and Finbarr O’Reilly documented the refugee camps in Chad. Rosso will present the work created for the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and the World Health Organization (WHO). O’Reilly, who also traveled to eastern Chad around the same time, will share his images of the sprawling camps along the Darfur border, captured for Avaaz. Rosso’s work was published in TIME, and O’Reilly’s series were featured by The Washington Post and CNN. https://player.vimeo.com/video/1036436842 3755 2026-03-03T15:49:37-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/creating-a-sustainable-practice-with-bethany-mollenkof/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/vimeo-10245-1.jpg Creating a Sustainable Practice with Bethany Mollenkof Bethany uncovers how to create a multidimensional practice that not only lends itself to creating dynamic work across different genres but also provides various income streams for a sustainable career.

Photographer Cristina de Middel investigates photography’s ambiguous relationship to truth. Blending documentary and conceptual photographic practices, she plays with reconstructions and archetypes in order to construct layered depictions of the subjects she approaches. Working from the premise that mass media is reducing our real understanding of the world we live in, De Middel responds to an urgency to re-imagine tired aesthetic tropes and insert opinion in place of facts.

Daniel Berehulak is an independent photojournalist based in Mexico City. Born to immigrant parents, Daniel grew up on a farm outside of Sydney, Australia. His work has been recognized with two Pulitzer Prizes. In 2015, for his coverage of the Ebola epidemic in West Africa and in 2017 for his coverage of the so-called “war on drugs” in the Philippines, both for The New York Times. In 2011, he was also a Pulitzer finalist for his coverage of floods in Pakistan. Daniel has received several other honors, including six World Press Photo awards, two Photographer of the Year awards from POYi, and the prestigious John Faber, Olivier Rebbot and Feature Photography awards from the Overseas Press Club. The Eddie Adams Workshop is the only tuition-free photojournalism seminar of its kind. Applicants at the start of their career submit portfolios for consideration. One hundred participants selected solely on the merit of their pictures team up with top professional photographers and editors for a four-day gathering that includes assignments, portfolio reviews, panel discussions and presentations. The Workshop began in 1988 with the goal to redress the exclusivity of professional opportunities by accepting students based on their demonstrated skills, and not on their ability to pay tuition. The all-volunteer faculty and staff, many of whom are alumni, are passionate about the mission and donate their time and expertise.

He tells us about the important place research has in his storytelling process and successfully creating visual narratives. Daniel Schwartz graduated from Zurich School of Arts and Craft (now Zurich University of the Arts) in 1980. He concentrates on book projects, with exhibitions, based on extensive travels, photographic essays, and reportages covering the Eastern Hemisphere from Iran to East Timor, from Turkmenistan to Bangladesh. Schwartz's art is documentary; it is in the history of places. His journalism is not a reaction to events; it builds on memory. His method is best expressed in "Travelling through the Eye of History" (published, in 2009, like all his books by Thames & Hudson), a pre- and post-9/11 observation covering Central Asia including Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Kashmir. In 1987/1988, during a forbidden journey, Schwartz became the first foreigner and photographer to travel along all sections of the Great Wall of China. His reportages about the habitats of South and Southeast Asia's deltas, endangered by the consequences of climate change, were an early photojournalistic investigation of climate change, celebrated by the Financial Times as a “visual j’accuse” and made him twice a finalist of the W. Eugene Smith Grant in Humanistic Photography (1993 and 1995). A sequel to his work "Delta" (published 1997) and awareness project, "While the Fires Burn: A Glacier Odyssey" is featured in "Beyond the Obvious," a film about Schwartz's life and work, to be released in 2018. From 1990 to 2005, Schwartz was a member of the editorial team of DU, and became the prestigious magazine's second staff photographer after Werner Bischof. From 1996 to 2004, he was a member of Lookat Photos Agency and conceived and curated major traveling exhibitions. He is a member of the Advisory Board, Program for Narrative and Documentary Practice at Tufts University.

Daniel Schwartz graduated from Zurich School of Arts and Craft (now Zurich University of the Arts) in 1980. He concentrates on book projects, with exhibitions, based on extensive travels, photographic essays, and reportages covering the Eastern Hemisphere from Iran to East Timor, from Turkmenistan to Bangladesh. Schwartz's art is documentary; it is in the history of places. His journalism is not a reaction to events; it builds on memory. His method is best expressed in "Travelling through the Eye of History" (published, in 2009, like all his books by Thames & Hudson), a pre- and post-9/11 observation covering Central Asia including Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Kashmir.

Since the recent public release of generative artificial intelligence, synthetic images that strongly resemble photos are now quickly being added to the record, undermining the intuitive trust in photos and scrambling the links between images and reality. What can practitioners, publishers, and educators do to resist the erosion of trust in documentary photography? What are the new tools, vocabulary, and ethics needed to adapt to this technological upheaval?

Wade, ending nearly 50 years of federal protection for abortion. Some states began enforcing strict abortion bans. In Tennessee, for example, the law prohibits women from having abortions in almost all circumstances. In early 2023, ProPublica assigned photographer Stacy Kranitz and reporter Kavitha Surana to document the consequences of post-Roe America by following one family. They spent the last year with Mayron Hollis, a mother from Tennessee, and watched her struggle through circumstances beyond her control with little to no support from family or the government. What was it like for Kranitz to shadow someone going through turbulent times? How do you build trust and not shy away from the difficult moments? How do you edit such a complex story? And how does a yearlong photo commission come about? In this event, Ilvy Njiokiktjien will talk with Stacy Kranitz and ProPublica visual strategy editor Andrea Wise about their experiences working on the long-form interactive story “The Year After a Denied Abortion.“ https://player.vimeo.com/video/946466408 3953 2026-03-03T15:50:39-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/documenting-the-danger-to-democracy/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/vimeo-10339-1.jpg Documenting the Danger to Democracy Democracy is in danger. A global political trend toward authoritarianism threatens the democratic culture that sustains independent media. Whether it is the big lie of the election denial in the United States, the rise of right-wing parties in Europe, or the loss of citizen’s rights in countries like India, Turkey, and Venezuela. The cultural space necessary for journalists, photographers, artists, and critics to work freely is being squeezed by political actors and their media enablers. For creatives who want to document contemporary issues, how should you respond? What stories should you be telling? What can and should you do? Join us for a special event with presentations to address these urgent questions. We have a varied program of interviews, discussions, and visual presentations for an in-person audience, as well as a live stream for those who cannot attend in person. This evening is organized by Forhanna and VII Insider (a program of The VII Foundation in partnership with PhotoWings). It takes place at Pakhuis de Zwijger in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, on Wednesday, January 17, 2024, starting at 20:00 CET (14:00 EST). You can attend this event either in person or online. Please register via the link on this page and choose between a physical spot or an online reservation. Entrance is free. Program: 1. Covering the January 6 Insurrection in America Visual column by Dr. David Campbell The violent storming of the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021, was the visible manifestation of an attempted coup d’etat by President Donald Trump and his allies. It was an attempt to seize power illegally by preventing the certification of the 2020 presidential election from taking place on that day. The big lie–that Trump rather than President Biden won the election–is propagated by all Republican candidates for the 2024 election and continues to shape American politics. Dr. David Campbell will present a visual column showing the work of VII photographers who covered the January 6 insurrection. 2.

What does this story reveal about wealth and inequality in America? And when many of society’s problems are often only represented by data, reports, and statistics, what does it take to make a compelling documentary?

In just over three years, Afghan women have been systematically excluded from nearly every aspect of public life: they are barred from schools, universities, most workplaces, and even parks and bathhouses. They must cover their faces in public, always be accompanied by a man, and never let their voices be heard in public. In this event, we will speak with women’s rights researcher Mélissa Cornet and photographer Kiana Hayeri, who have spent years living and working in Afghanistan, witnessing firsthand the increasing suppression of women’s rights. After becoming laureates of the Carmignac Photojournalism Award in 2024, Cornet and Hayeri traveled across seven provinces over ten weeks, interviewing over 100 Afghan women and girls about how their lives have transformed under these harsh restrictions. Their stories reveal a complex mix of resilience, defiance, and despair. How did Cornet and Hayeri connect with Afghan women amidst such challenging circumstances?

Danny was joined by special guest Gabriel Stutzman, one of the book’s subjects. This recording will be available here until February 6 to Freemium VII Insider subscribers. After that, it will be available to Premium subscribers along with all other VII Insider resources. In Driftless, Danny Wilcox Frazier’s dramatic black-and-white photographs portray a changing Midwest of vanishing towns and transformed landscapes. As rural economies fail, people and resources are migrating to the coasts and cities, as though the heart of America were being emptied. Frazier’s arresting photographs take us into Iowa’s abandoned places and illuminate the lives of those people who stay behind and continue to live there: young people at leisure, fishermen on the Mississippi, veterans on Memorial Day, Amish women playing cards, as well as more recent arrivals, Lubavitcher Hasidic Jews at prayer and Latinos at work in the fields. Frazier’s camera finds these newcomers while it also captures activities that seemingly have gone on forever: harvesting and hunting, celebrating and socializing, praying and surviving. Poetic and dark but illuminated with flashes of insight, this collection of photographs is a portrait of contemporary rural Iowa, but it is also more than that. It shows what is happening in many rural and out-of-the-way communities all over the United States, where people find ways to get by in the wake of closing factories and the demise of family farms. Taken by a true insider who has lived in Iowa his entire life, Frazier’s photographs are rich in emotion and give expression to the hopes and desires of the people who remain, whose needs and wants are complicated by the economic realities remaking rural America. – Alexa Dilworth, Center for Documentary Studies, Duke University https://player.vimeo.com/video/694297917 4107 2022-03-31T06:20:12+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/drones-for-good-romeo-durscher-collaborations-for-cause-2016/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-9176.jpg Drones for Good – Romeo Durscher – Collaborations for Cause 2016 Romeo's presentation will take the audience into the skies, showcasing how this technology has already impacted and helped all over the world.

Cities and counties across the country were beginning to shift to minority majority status, DACA was altering the lives of hundreds of thousands of young people, and a backlash against immigrants would help fuel a presidential campaign. In this climate, project partners Talking Eyes Media, VII Photo, and the Center for Migration and the Global City at Rutgers-Newark birthed a project that honors the past, present and future of our migrating identities. Newest Americans is a multimedia collaboratory of journalists, media-makers, artists, faculty and students telling the stories that radiate from the most diverse university in the nation and the global city of Newark, New Jersey. This project’s stories have been published in National Geographic, The New York Times, The Nation, The Atlantic, and Mother Jones, and have garnered support from National Geographic, the Dodge Foundation and the National Endowment for the Humanities. Most recently Newest Americans was named the 2021 Online Storytelling Project of the Year by Pictures of the Year International. In this presentation, Ed Kashi, Julie Winokur, and Tim Raphael share a sample reel and a selection of work from Newest Americans, discuss their most recent developments in curriculum and teacher training, and the process of creating the Newark Story Bus, which is a mobile media lab scheduled to launch this spring. The goal of this multi-year project is to shift the narrative on immigration and support the next generation of diverse storytellers. https://player.vimeo.com/video/637273737 4895 2026-03-03T15:54:46-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/ed-kashi-making-change-through-photography/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-8807.jpg Ed Kashi: Making Change Through Photography In this video, award-winning photojournalist Ed Kashi tell us about some of his recent work and what motivates him in his career.

Esto se debe a que los estándares estéticos dominantes han sido definidos por fuerzas externas, con estructuras de conocimiento que van desde la antropología hasta la ciencia, lo que hace que la identidad latina sea un sujeto sin agencia que no controla su propia historia. Este evento en vivo, realizado en español, indagará la cuestión de la ética, la representación y las nuevas narrativas en América Latina. Leonardo Carrato estará en conversación con Paola Paredes de Ecuador y Diego Moreno de México. Paola y Diego presentarán sus proyectos personales y discutirán sus procesos creativos, ante los desafíos de encontrar un lenguaje visual para expresarse de manera distinta en la fotografía documental.

People flee unbearable living conditions in their home countries and head to the United States. In this presentation, Nicoló Filippo Rosso will share his visual report from recent work in Mexico and the United States, where, building on his project Exodus, he has documented families traveling through to their destination. One of the themes to explore is how the mainstream media’s interest in migration issues often follows politics. This poses a challenge: are visual journalists offering valuable information on an event or serving a political agenda that uses migration as an instrument for its propaganda? https://player.vimeo.com/video/859135641 4056 2026-03-03T15:51:34-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/expanding-the-archive-with-kira-pollack-and-christopher-morris/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/vimeo-10119-1.jpg Expanding the Archive with Kira Pollack and Christopher Morris Archives bear witness and deepen our understanding of visual history. Protecting them is vital. Photographers often face a similar dilemma: how to preserve their archives from physical destruction or loss over time due to technological advances and limited resources. This challenge is one faced by contributing photographer to The VII Foundation, Christopher Morris, as he navigates the logistics and legacy associated with his own extensive archive. In this event, we speak with Christopher alongside Kira Pollack, former Director of Photography at TIME and Creative Director at Vanity Fair. They discuss their collaborative approach, exploring new technologies to preserve these vital archives and the visual histories they contain. This is at the core of Pollack’s research, highlighted in her Washington Post article, ‘Photos are Disappearing, One Archive at a Time. As a 2025 Walter Shorenstein Media & Democracy Fellow at the Harvard Kennedy School, Kira examines how AI-driven tools can deepen our understanding of visual history, support authorship and legacy, and provide new solutions for image analysis and discovery. https://player.vimeo.com/video/1147396431 4486 2026-03-03T15:48:09-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/exploring-the-risks-of-ai-with-tara-pixley/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/vimeo-10255-1.jpg Exploring the Risks of AI with Tara Pixley As generative-AI models make creating, publishing, and circulating synthetic imagery easier and easier, visual journalists need to understand what this tech is and how it works.

Caribou migrate to the coastal plains in the spring to give birth to their young. In the summer, birds from across the world float on arctic lakes and wetlands. As summer turns into winter, polar bears venture out onto the growing ice to feed. Even through the long winter, coral reefs thrive below the ice. For "To The Arctic," Florian Schulz captured stunning photographs that showcase the broad variety of life in the arctic - from expansive landscape panoramas, to the marvels of the underwater world. Born in Germany, Florian Schulz is a professional nature and wildlife photographer with a strong conservation vision. In constant search for breathtaking images, Florian hopes to inspire individuals to take action in the protection of endangered ecosystems and wilderness areas.

How can contemporary photography use its visual power to create stories that trigger empathy, closeness and connectedness, and inspire people to act? The Anthropocene has radically and dangerously changed the relationship between humans and nature. This is forcing us to review the way we live our lives, and redress the negative impacts. Everyone is asked to do their bit in order to reduce their planetary footprint and live a more sustainable life. How can contemporary photography have an important role in defining, inspiring and touching people’s emotions towards this goal? Are we asking too much of photographers, or do they have a responsibility in environmental storytelling? Now more than ever we need people to feel connected with nature, the issues, and other people across the planet. We need to understand how contemporary photography can have a very important role. This event features Maria Teresa Salvati and Mattia Marzorati, and is moderated by Dr Paul Lowe.

In this video, John advises us on the importance of “getting lost” when doing photographic work, as a way to help shed our preconceived notions of what is possible. John Stanmeyer is a photojournalist dedicated to social and political issues that define our times. Over the last decade, John has worked nearly exclusively with National Geographic magazine, producing over 12 stories for the magazine and resulting in 10 covers. Between 1998 and 2008, John was a contract photographer for Time magazine, during which time he photographed the war in Afghanistan, the fight for independence in East Timor, the fall of Suharto in Indonesia, and other significant world news events. His years with Time resulted in 18 covers of the magazine. In 2001, he cofound the VII Photo agency with six of the world’s leading photojournalists. By 2005, VII was listed in third position in American Photo’s “100 Most Important People in Photography.” VII now represents 20 of the world’s preeminent photojournalists whose careers span 35 years of world history. January 2015, Stanmeyer became a VII Distinguished Member. The same month, John brought his ten years of stories with National Geographic to Nat Geo Creative while his historic archive of 20+ years of visual history remains at VII. He is the recipient of numerous honors, including the prestigious Robert Capa award (Overseas Press Club), Magazine Photographer of the Year (POYi), and numerous World Press, Picture of the Year and NPPA awards.

Yet restoration of Gorongosa National Park in Mozambique is one of such rare examples. Completely destroyed during a 20-year civil war, Gorongosa was able to rebound thanks to a unique partnership between a US-based NGO and the Mozambican government. An important tool in the park’s recovery was the use of film and photography to bring the park into the public’s awareness, and turn the perception of Mozambique from that of a war-torn place to a unique ecotourism destination. https://player.vimeo.com/video/826980536 1338 2026-03-03T15:52:09-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/graciella-iturbide-look3-2016-artist-talk/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-9152.jpg Graciella Iturbide - LOOK3 2016 Artist Talk 2016 LOOK3 Artist Graciela Iturbide gives an Artist talk at the Paramount Theater for the 2016 Festival.

This waste contributes significantly to methane emissions, a potent greenhouse gas. In this event – hosted by The VII Foundation contributing photographer Finbarr O’Reilly – Oyewole Lawal presents his project Guardians of Gaia: The Unseen Eco-Warriors. For the last years, Oyewole has been documenting scavengers, who work on the streets, gutters, and landfills in Africa, salvaging what society discards. By doing so, scavengers reduce the environmental impact, recycling 10% of the waste. Many of Oyewole’s images have been made in the Olusosan Landfill in Lagos. This landfill is the largest in Africa, covering over 40 acres of land and receiving at least 10,000 tons of waste daily. Join Finbarr O’Reilly for a presentation on July 18th at 12:00 PM EDT / 18:00 PM CEST. Oyewole’s talk will be followed by a Q&A session. A recording of this presentation will be available in our Video Collection, shortly after the event. https://player.vimeo.com/video/990768576 3400 2026-03-03T15:50:06-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/guillermo-cervera-la-guerra-es-una-piscina-foundry-photojournalism-workshop-2017/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-8994.jpg Guillermo Cervera: La Guerra Es Una Piscina - Foundry Photojournalism Workshop 2017 A 23-minute video featuring Guillermo Cervera, from the Foundry Workshop collection of the PhotoWings Media Archive. https://player.vimeo.com/video/251716335 1359 2018-01-18T21:24:36+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/hal-buell-former-associated-press-photography-director-eddie-adams-workshop-2015/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-9246.jpg Hal Buell - Former Associated Press Photography Director – Eddie Adams Workshop 2015 Hal Buell is a veteran photographer and photo editor who worked for the Associated Press for 41 years and on assignment in more than 35 countries.

But images alone are not enough. Helen Cherullo, executive director of Braided River, and a dedicated Arctic protection proponent, will present the critical role of photographers, incredible imagery, and genuine coalitions in the “We Are the Arctic” campaign to date, and marching forward. Helen Cherullo is the publisher of Mountaineers Books and founder of Braided River. She believes that wilderness is sacred, and appreciated through beauty: if we capture the heart, the mind (and responsible public policy) will follow. She has worked with many of the continent’s finest emerging and veteran nature photographers and writers on books, media, exhibits, and events. Braided River collaborates with grassroots organizations and committed philanthropists to preserve the last remaining wild places in western North America—including the topic of her presentation—the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. In 2011 she received the “Voice of the Wild” award from the Alaska Wilderness League to recognize individuals whose actions, commitment, and contributions lead to greater awareness about protecting and preserving Alaska’s wilderness. She has a degree in Journalism, with a major in Fine Arts from the University of Montana. Previous professional experience includes graphic design and advertising production, and being sole proprietor of a graphic design and printing management company. Her passion is developing creative, professional visually-driven communication campaigns that support grassroots engagement. https://player.vimeo.com/video/219736191 1743 2017-05-31T19:10:34+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/helen-cherullo-at-collaborations-for-cause/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-9544.jpg Helen Cherullo at Collaborations for Cause Publisher Helen Cherullo shares her thoughts on photography and talks about her work in an interview with PhotoWings. Collaborations for Cause, hosted May 4th & 5th 2012 by the Blue Earth Alliance, was a retreat for communications professionals who want and need to use emerging new media outlets to build strong, lasting bridges among creative multimedia storytellers, non-profits, socially responsible corporations and supporting communities. PhotoWings' mission is to highlight and help facilitate the power of photography to influence the world. We help photography to be better understood, created, utilized, seen, and saved. -- Helen Cherullo is publisher of The Mountaineers Books, the publishing division of The Mountaineers and dedicated to "leading our readers to the lessons and pleasures of the great outdoors." She has been a Mountaineers member since 1992, when she first started at "Books." Born in Chicago and raised next door to a forest preserve in the city's suburbs, she has had a lifetime passion for nature study and preserving wild places. Other passions include day hiking, canoeing, and gardening. Her modest-sized city lot includes over 20 dwarf fruit trees rapidly transitioning into an out-of-control forest. She has a BA in journalism from the University of Montana, with a major in fine arts -- and believes in the power of words and images to inspire and transform lives.

Her work has been featured in The New York Times, Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, NBC News, and more. Sharon will be receiving her degree in journalism and mass communications in Spring 2024 from the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque. Sharon focuses on documenting stories from her community that are often underrepresented and underreported. "This work focuses on the people of my home community, the Navajo Nation. I grew up in Manuelito, where my earliest memories include swimming in the ditch after it rained and playing in the mountains with my cousins when we were kids. It’s important to me to capture those everyday moments that define my experience of this place. I hope my son, Kylian, will get to create his own memories in the Navajo homeland where I grew up. Historically, the Navajo Nation has been underrepresented in mainstream narratives- our stories have very often been told by outsiders, and routinely stripped of nuance and context. But through my work on assignments for publications from The Navajo Times to The New York Times, I’ve been able to meet people across my reservation, which stretches nearly 30,000 square miles across the New Mexico-Arizona border and has some of the most stunning landscapes in the country. I’ve documented individuals riding their horses to cast their vote at the polls during election day, an elder living in a family-made hut for the past year after her mobile home burned down in a fire, Naiomi Glass riding her skateboard on sandstone. Through that work, I have been able to make new friends and learn even more about the people who also call Navajo Nation home. These photos and the people featured in them are my tribute to our community." https://player.vimeo.com/video/864071259 837 2026-03-03T15:51:29-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/how-do-we-focus-our-gaze-connecting-photography-social-impact/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-8889.jpg How Do We Focus Our Gaze? Connecting Photography & Social Impact Featuring: Nancy Farese (Moderator), Sarah Blesener, Brian L. Frank, and Tomas Van Houtryve Presented by Catchlight We are at a unique moment, and it’s never been more important to use visual stories to help us make sense of a complex world. Modern day storytellers are culturally diverse and uniquely talented, pushing our understanding of the medium to reach new audiences, address chronic issues, and help us see and understand each other through a more nuanced lens. In 2017, CatchLight launched its fellowship program, honoring three storytellers who demonstrated excellence in the use of photography as a catalyst to spark new conversations. Sarah Blesener’s project, “Beckon Us From Home,” examines the interplay of religion, love of country, and military-style training in the teaching of “New Americanism” among youth. Brian L. Frank’s latest work, “Out of Bounds,” looks at targeted policing and criminalization of youth in minority communities and asks what kind of a society we have built, where a prison camp becomes a boy’s only experience of summer camp. Tomas Van Houtryve’s project, “Lines and Lineage,” questions the role that photographs—both present and missing—have played in shaping the identity of the West. In addition to an award of $30,000, each fellow entered a partnership with an established media outlet and worked with CatchLight to mobilize resources and activate community around their year-long projects, focused on driving measurable social change. Hear from CatchLight’s founder and fellows about our unique focus on solving the giant mismatch between artists and their potential for social impact by surrounding longform storytelling with resources, networks and leadership to bring to life and amplify the reach of their stories. This public presentation will focus on the experiences of CatchLight’s inaugural fellows, and an open discussion of our approach to promoting social change through the arts.

While such investigations are both necessary and vital for a democratic culture, they do not, by themselves, offer a comprehensive picture of the world, and need to be supplemented with different perspectives. Solutions journalism is a new perspective in visual journalism that changes the frame of the story to address “the negativity bias” in the media. Rather than focusing on problems, solutions journalism looks for where people are already taking action to deal with difficult issues. As such, a solutions story is the product of rigorous reporting on efforts currently underway to respond to a problem. In this event we explore what a solutions focus in documentary photography and photojournalism involves, why it is important, and show some recent work that embraced this alternative frame. Indonesian photographer Michael Eko and American photographer Celia Talbot Tobin present work they produced for the Solutions Visual Journalism Initiative. They are joined by Kyser Lough from the University of Georgia, who discusses his research on visual communication and solutions journalism, with an emphasis on photojournalism. https://player.vimeo.com/video/694242982 5280 2026-03-03T15:53:59-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/how-is-latin-american-journalism-resisting-authoritarianism/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/vimeo-10201-1.jpg How Is Latin American Journalism Resisting Authoritarianism? In the face of authoritarianism – marked by often violent attacks on democratic processes, press freedom, and journalists (along with other forms of abuse) – we will explore how Latin American journalists and photographers are resisting. In particular, we will discuss how CONNECTAS, a hemispheric platform and regional reference for investigative journalism, works by promoting in-depth, collaborative reports that help to expose abuses of power by disseminating evidence-based analyses. This event features a discussion with Carlos Eduardo Huertas, director of CONNECTAS, who will present some of the most impactful and in-depth reports produced by the platform, and Carlos Herrera, a photographer from Nicaragua who has directly confronted the very challenges we will be discussing. Carlos Herrera will showcase his photographic work and offer a personal perspective on how investigative photojournalism can navigate and address abuses of power. The event will be moderated by Leonardo Carrato. https://player.vimeo.com/video/1083957864 5247 2026-03-03T15:49:08-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/how-is-the-vii-foundation-addressing-visual-journalisms-challenges-a-conversation-with-gary-knight/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/vimeo-10722-1.jpg How Is The VII Foundation Addressing Visual Journalism’s Challenges? A Conversation With Gary Knight What is the state of visual journalism, and how is The VII Foundation addressing the challenges? What are the foundation’s current activities, and what is planned for the future? In this event, Gary Knight, co-founder and CEO of The VII Foundation and co-founder of VII Photo, and Dr. David Campbell, Education Director of The VII Foundation, will outline the foundation’s work and engage in a Q&A session with webinar participants. The VII Foundation was established in 2001 alongside VII Photo with a mission to radically transform visual journalism as funding through traditional sources for continuing documentary practice and long-term journalism projects diminished. The foundation was driven by the conviction that a non-profit structure would be an appropriate vehicle to initiate stories that advocate for change, impact policy, and train a new generation of visual journalists immersed in their own communities. That culminated last year in the foundation acquiring VII Photo. https://player.vimeo.com/video/956765800 2332 2024-06-11T21:29:40+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/how-photography-can-address-the-climate-crisis-as-a-social-justice-issue/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-8599.jpg How photography can address the climate crisis as a social justice issue We need to redefine the climate crisis as a social justice issue. The rapid decline of our environment is a site for multiple intersections of injustice, making the climate crisis a human rights issue of critical and increasing importance. The impacts of climate change are not – and will not – be borne equally or fairly between rich and poor, women and men, and older and younger generations. Consequently, there is a growing need to focus on climate justice, which looks at the climate crisis through a human rights lens. We need to be motivated by the belief that we can create a better future for present and future generations by working together. In this series of events, we have been questioning whether the visual representation of the environmental crisis over the last few years has focused too much on faraway places, trying to shock, showing communities that feel distant and unconnected. The question now is whether we need to change this perspective. This change could be done by altering the types of stories depicted or by adding the gaze of those who narrate important accounts, especially those directly involved in a context of injustice. Could these more unfiltered views help make connections that enable the viewing public to think and shift understanding? In this event, moderated by Dr Paul Lowe, series curator Maria Teresa Salvati is joined by Abdel Mandili, founder of the People’s Planet Project. https://player.vimeo.com/video/751572648 3569 2022-09-20T08:29:33+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/how-to-apply-for-grants-with-sara-terry-and-raymond-thompson/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/vimeo-10341-1.jpg How to apply for grants, with Sara Terry and Raymond Thompson Grants are an increasingly important funding source for documentary photography projects and stories. Grant applications require a mix of written proposals and visual materials. Have you ever wondered how to present the visual materials best? Which photo to put first when you apply for a grant? How to sequence 20 or 30 photos for a proposal? Join our conversation with Sara Terry, director of The Aftermath Project and member of VII Photo, and Raymond Thompson, the 2023 grant winner of the 1492/1619 American Aftermaths grant, to discuss these issues. During this event, Sara and Raymond will explain how to create a strong proposal.

Andrea established Down in the County, a regular newsletter with stories and event listings, described as a celebration of the people of Pamlico County and their way of life. Down in the County is an example of hyperlocal journalism, which focuses on local stories on a small scale that are often not covered by regional or national outlets. In this event, we will talk with Andrea about her experience running Down in the County and how she translates her worldwide experience to this local venture. https://player.vimeo.com/video/859094946 3793 2023-08-29T17:49:53+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/hyperlocal-storytelling-in-the-time-of-pandemic-with-ed-kashi/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/vimeo-10593-1.jpg Hyperlocal Storytelling in the Time of Pandemic with Ed Kashi Telling the stories around you has always been a powerful and intimate aspect of documentary and journalistic work, but during the time of pandemic, when we are more likely locked down and even quarantined, where travel is either impossible or quite difficult, to hone your skills and awareness of the stories in your home, neighborhood, city, community or state, is not only valuable but imperative.

If an image is inspirational for you upon close consideration, will it be so for someone giving it just a quick glance online? It helps to test our photos with eyes beyond our own, and in recent years Resource Media has been testing images in non-profit advocacy communications with audiences in-person and online, in research settings and real-world campaigns. In this presentation we will share some of the findings that have emerged repeatedly and also share tips for doing image-testing, an area of increasing interest for non-profits today. www.resource-media.org Presentation from the 2016 Blue Earth Alliance Collaborations for Cause conference in Seattle Washington at the Seattle Public Library.

Can visual storytelling be strategic? The answer’s yes, and it has to be if it wants to inspire change. In this moderated panel Non-profit and Corporate Social Responsibility representatives describe successes and failures in the creation and distribution of content aligned with strategic goals, from helping to raise awareness to delivering content that delivers actions such as raising funds. The panel will discuss questions such as “How does the storyteller deliver a product that they’re proud of and at the same time deliver a product that can meet strategic communications goals?” “How does the content creator pitch stories, and clearly articulate the ROI to the funders and to the partners.” Dan Lamont Jane Sutton-Redner leads the Content Curation team at World Vision, a Christian humanitarian organization dedicated to helping children, families, and their communities worldwide reach their full potential by tackling the causes of poverty and justice.

By 2024, Nicolo reconnected with some in the United States. What they had imagined as the end of a dangerous journey had become a new cycle of fear and instability. In the summer of 2025, Nicolo spent nearly every day inside the immigration courts of downtown Manhattan, where Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents have detained numerous non-U.S. citizens attending court hearings. Many arrived under Temporary Protected Status or requested asylum at the border. They complied with the system, yet were still taken from the hallways, arrested, sent to distant detention centres, and placed on the path to deportation, either to their home countries or to third nations. Hosted by Ron Haviv, the conversation will explore the deep divide in U.S. immigration policy, where demands for border control collide with calls for humanity, and discuss what effect these issues have on the democratic fabric of the country. https://player.vimeo.com/video/1170489339 4490 2026-03-05T01:21:02+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/inspired-live-at-photoville/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-8891.jpg Inspired Live at Photoville Featuring: Laylah Barrayn, Shiho Fukada, Courtney Garvin, Sebastián Hidalgo, Smriti Keshari, Nate Larson, Griselda San Martin and Dave Shelley Producers and co-founders Marcel Saba, Amy Wolff and Mathieu Young are pleased to bring you Inspired Live at Photoville.

In this event, Jo-Anne McArthur, award-winning photojournalist and the founder of We Animals Media (WAM), outlines her work documenting the stories of animals used for food, fashion, entertainment, tradition and experimentation. WAM is the world’s leading animal photojournalism agency, and it recently published HIDDEN: Animals in the Anthropocene, a major book featuring the work of 40 international photojournalists with a foreword by Academy Award-winning actor Joaquin Phoenix. HIDDEN documents our relationship with animals, exposing some of the billions of hidden animals in our lives: those we eat, wear, and use for entertainment, tradition, and experimentation. HIDDEN was named Photography Book of the Year by Pictures of the Year International, and awarded the Gold Medal for Outstanding Book of the Year – Most Likely to Save the Planet by Independent Publisher. Like conflict photographers, animal photojournalists report on atrocities, largely hidden from public view, sometimes breaking laws to uncover violence, systematic abuse, and exploitation. In this event, we will explore how animal photojournalism works, the issues that arise from visualising atrocity, and assess the impact this reporting is having. https://player.vimeo.com/video/732985116 4265 2026-03-03T15:53:23-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/joe-riis-look3-2016-artist-talk/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-9150.jpg Joe Riis - LOOK3 2016 Artist Talk 2016 LOOK3 Artist Joe Riis is a wildlife photojournalist whose work explores the migrations of animals in the Greater Yellowstone region of North America, highlights science and research expeditions, and connects people to some of the most remote and rare wild animals on the planet.

Some can be large, and some can be small—it all depends on need and style. From times when an extensive collection of items is necessary, to more insignificant day-to-day kits, and creating endlessly with the camera phone that is always in his pocket, John Stanmeyer has done it all over the years. In this VII Insider session, John shares his experiences preparing for assignments and how he thinks about what gear is necessary. John shares his philosophy of minimalism and simplicity, and gives insight into what feels just right for him, to help guide others to committing not to more and more gear, but to less—and the limitless possibilities he finds in bringing a simple collection of tools into the field on an assignment. In a wide-ranging Q+A, John also discusses long-form and short-form storytelling with a small kit, sharing examples not so much of the gear, but what one can do with their gear.

The gender binary is the idea that there are only two possible genders – male and female. Anyone who identifies as non-binary, gender fluid, agender or genderqueer, views their gender as being beyond this binary. Although the terminology is new, non-binary individuals, who fall under the LGBTQ umbrella, have always existed but many people are confused about what non-binary means. Worse, non-binary individuals often face discrimination even in countries which legally recognise LGBTQ rights. Linda’s portrait project, “Outside the Binary”, explores the world of people that identify outside the binary and seeks to produce a better understanding of people who don’t identify as gender binary. In this webinar, Linda presents her project, and Benny, Koyote and Kushy will address how they are represented visually in the media, how they would like to be represented and how work like Linda’s might contribute to changing people’s perceptions of non-binary individuals. https://player.vimeo.com/video/637275922 4226 2026-03-03T15:54:42-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/look3-2013-carrie-mae-weems/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/vimeo-10127-1.jpg LOOK3 2013 - Carrie Mae Weems A 21-minute video featuring Carrie Mae Weems, from the LOOK3 collection of the PhotoWings Media Archive. https://player.vimeo.com/video/1146626753 1267 2026-03-03T15:48:15-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/look3-2013-michael-nick-nichols/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/vimeo-10129-1.jpg LOOK3 2013 - Michael Nick Nichols A 24-minute video featuring Michael Nichols, from the LOOK3 collection of the PhotoWings Media Archive. https://player.vimeo.com/video/1146626719 1429 2026-03-03T15:48:16-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/look3-2013-susan-meiselas/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/vimeo-10125-1.jpg LOOK3 2013 - Susan Meiselas A 20-minute video featuring Susan Meiselas, from the LOOK3 collection of the PhotoWings Media Archive. https://player.vimeo.com/video/1146626782 1186 2026-03-03T15:48:13-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/louie-schwartzberg-learning-through-gratitude/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-9196.jpg Louie Schwartzberg – Learning Through Gratitude Award-winning producer, director and cinematographer Louie Schwartzberg discusses his life, his career, his practice and his embrace of nature as a healing modality and a model for collaboration.

However, he also loves to experiment with different approaches to documentary work, stretching the boundaries by learning and using new tools and techniques, both analog and digital.

Mangroves protect the shoreline and provide essential nursery habitat for many species. Despite these benefits, we continue to destroy them at an alarming rate; so fast in fact, that in the last 50 years we have lost almost 50% of the earth’s mangrove forests. “Mangroves: the skin of our coasts” is a new communication campaign to stop the deforestation of these incredible forests. https://player.vimeo.com/video/826991175 1087 2026-03-03T15:52:05-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/manoocher-deghati-foundry-2023-presentation/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-8549.jpg Manoocher Deghati - Foundry 2023 Presentation An 11-minute presentation featuring Manoocher Deghati, from the Foundry Workshop collection of the PhotoWings Media Archive. https://player.vimeo.com/video/885044152 640 2023-11-16T01:31:15+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/manoocher-deghati-mentoring-young-photographers/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-8539.jpg Manoocher Deghati: Mentoring Young Photographers A 10-minute video featuring Manoocher Deghati, from the Foundry Workshop collection of the PhotoWings Media Archive. https://player.vimeo.com/video/891835626 595 2023-12-06T13:24:14+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/mansi-midha-evening-presentation-foundry-photojournalism-workshop-2018/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-8875.jpg Mansi Midha Evening Presentation – Foundry Photojournalism Workshop 2018 Mansi Midha is a Delhi based photographer with a background in Communication Design and a formal education in documentary photography and classical photojournalism from The International Centre of Photography in New York City.

Watch Mark explain his collaborative process and the ideas behind the project. “If you could have window in your cell, what place from your past would it look out to?” “Windows from Prison” asks this question to hundreds of prisoners who were convicted as juveniles in the Washington, DC area, but sent to adult prisons across the country. The corresponding photo requests were then fulfilled by students at George Mason University and Duke Ellington High School and mailed back to the incarcerated participants. The project then exhibits both the letters and photographs around a scale model of a prison cell on the GMU Campus. The cell houses collaborative work between researchers and artists dealing with incarceration. It also becomes center stage to a week of events and discussions examining the effects of incarceration on society, as well as on individuals. "Windows from Prison" utilizes photography as a way to bridge this distance while creating space and humanistic entry points for students, faculty, NGO's, family members of incarcerated individuals, former prisoners, and policy makers to engage with the sources, impacts, and alternatives to mass incarceration. https://player.vimeo.com/video/86755658 718 2014-02-15T03:34:35+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/marko-drobnjakovic-foundry-2023-presentation/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-9694-1.jpg Marko Drobnjakovic - Foundry 2023 Presentation A 10-minute presentation featuring Marko Drobnjakovic, from the Compilation collection of the PhotoWings Media Archive. https://player.vimeo.com/video/884098592 603 2023-11-13T18:34:47+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/mary-calvert-presentation-eddie-adams-workshop-2020/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-8777.jpg Mary Calvert Presentation - Eddie Adams Workshop 2020 During the virtual 2020 Eddie Adams Workshop, award-winning photojournalist Mary Calvert shared a presentation about her recent work covering issues of sexual abuse in the U.S. military and the lives of the veterans who have survived such abuse.

Recent projects include Rile and his story and the Veterans Book Project, both focused on the U.S.-led wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Monica Haller works with photography, design, sound, installation, and writing. Her work explores violent and non-violent activities in human and environmental systems. Recent projects include Riley and his story and the Veterans Book Project, both focused on the U.S.-led wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Monica’s current research and work involves soil, geologic time, industry, wetlands, and lives of coastal Louisiana and the Mississippi Delta. Monica has received a Guggenheim Fellowship, Jerome Fellowship, McKnight Fellowship, and support from the National Endowment for the Arts. Recently, she exhibited at the Minneapolis Institute of Art, Nomas Foundation Rome, Italy and the 01SJ San Jose Biennial. She has a BA in Peace and Conflict Studies and a MFA in Visual Studies. The Veterans Book Project, which will be presented at LOOK3, is a library of books authored collaboratively by Monica and dozens of people who have been affected by the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. In the printed format, the books provide a place or “container” that slows down and materializes the great quantity of ephemeral image files that live on veterans’ hard drives and in their heads. Each book re-deploys volatile images with the aim of rearticulating and refashioning memories, standing both independently of and in concert with the larger collection. https://player.vimeo.com/video/159244860 1911 2016-03-16T17:48:10+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/monumental-photography-investigating-representations-of-colonialism-and-nationalism/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/vimeo-10283-1.jpg Monumental Photography: Investigating Representations of Colonialism and Nationalism Using The VII Foundation exhibition, MONUMENTAL: The Dome of the Rock by Ziyah Gafić and Notre-Dame de Paris by Tomas van Houtryve, as a launch pad, this discussion will feature presentations on photography’s history and politics of representation in France and Israel/Palestine.

He was a founder and co-editor of Lens, The New York Times photography blog. Estrin was part of a team that won a 2001 Pulitzer Prize for “How Race Is Lived In America.” He was the co-executive producer of the documentary film “Underfire: The Untold Story of Pfc. Tony Vaccaro” which appeared on HBO in 2016. He is also an adjunct professor at the Craig Newmark Graduate School of Journalism at the City University of New York. "New York City is home to a diverse array of spiritual and religious communities. A recent study by the Public Religion Research Institute found Queens and Brooklyn to be the most religiously diverse counties in the United States, followed closely by Manhattan and the Bronx. In 2022 James Estrin, a New York Times staff photographer, documented more than 30 churches, mosques, synagogues, temples and other houses of worship in New York City. He witnessed services in ornately decorated edifices, backyards, basements and public parks while working with Times reporter Liam Stack. Mr. Estrin photographed first communions, Bar Mitzvahs, Hindu wedding celebrations, an Islamic school graduation ceremony, a Thai Buddhist meditation session, and several Haitian Vodou ceremonies. “What impressed me over and over was that religion is often the bedrock for New Yorkers,” Mr. Estrin said, “providing spiritual nourishment, community, counseling and a safety net for those in need. The sights, sounds, and smells of different religious rituals were compelling and distinctive, but it was the similarities of the roles that religion played in so many New Yorkers’ lives that I was most moved by.” https://player.vimeo.com/video/864071642 1344 2026-03-03T15:51:22-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/newspaper-club-ali-arkady-and-eric-bouvet/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/vimeo-10319-1.jpg Newspaper Club – Ali Arkady and Eric Bouvet In this “Newspaper Club” event – a special episode of our Book Club series hosted by Ziyah Gafic – we will look at two recent examples of photographer’s newspapers: Ali Arkady’s “Strappado” project on Iraq 2016 and Eric Bouvet’s Ukraine journal 2022.

The Foundry Photojournalism Workshop offers majority world students who could not otherwise afford it a chance to learn from some of the world's most well respected photojournalists and photography professionals. Nichole Sobecki is a photographer and filmmaker based in Nairobi, Kenya. She is represented internationally by the photo agency VII. Nichole graduated from Tufts University before beginning her career in Turkey, Lebanon, and Syria, focusing on regional issues related to identity, conflict, and human rights. From 2012-2015 Nichole led Agence France-Presse’s East Africa video bureau, and was a Rory Peck Awards News Finalist for her coverage of the Westgate mall attacks in Kenya. In 2018 she was awarded by Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights prize in new media for her images documenting Europe's response to the the African migration crisis. Nichole's work has been recognized by Pictures of the Year, the One World Media Awards, the Alexandra Boulat Award for Photojournalism, The Magenta Foundation, and The Jacob Burns Film Center, among others.

Yet the women in these crisis areas who become pregnant from rape are almost universally unable to obtain safe abortions, even when they are legally entitled to them. As global crises escalate and refugee situations become ever more protracted, this problem only becomes more significant for a greater share of the world’s women, who often turn to unsafe self-induced procedures, risking their lives and health and driving up rates of maternal mortality. Photographer Nichole Sobecki and writer Jill Filipovic have reported this story from Colombia, Bangladesh, Honduras and Uganda, each of which illustrates a different aspect of this overlooked global health emergency. In this event, Nichole and Jill present their reporting on the issue, and discuss what they consider to be the most effective ways to tell this story. How can the trauma of women’s experience be visualised respectfully? How, when injustice needs to be witnessed, do reporters navigate the issue of what can and cannot be shown? And how do these considerations translate into a story with visual impact? You can read Jill and Nichole’s reporting in the NY Review of Books (16 June 2021), UnHerd (June 2021), Les Glorieuses (June 2021), and Politico (June 2019). https://player.vimeo.com/video/637277317 4399 2026-03-03T15:54:40-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/nolan-ryan-trowe-in-conversation-with-ashley-gilbertson/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/vimeo-10585-1.jpg Nolan Ryan Trowe in conversation with Ashley Gilbertson Almost five years ago, Nolan Ryan Trowe lost his ability to walk and to function as an able-bodied photographer. He became very aware that, as with most industries, the expectations of a professional photographer are constructed around an able-bodied experience. He asks, “Where does the disabled narrative fit in? How do those stories get told?” This talk is introduced by David Campbell, the managing editor of VII Insider. Then, with his colleague and friend Ashley Gilbertson, Nolan Ryan Trowe discusses working in the industry as a photographer with a disability. Having recently completed the VII Mentor Program, Nolan shows work produced for The New York Times and The Magnum Foundation while explaining why he thinks it is important to produce work that is important to you personally. During the past couple of years, Nolan has turned the camera on himself in order to examine what can be learned by personal narratives. https://player.vimeo.com/video/637279099 4232 2026-03-03T15:54:38-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/nonprofit-storytelling-how-photographers-and-marketers-inspire-change-photoville-2018/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-8909.jpg Nonprofit Storytelling: How Photographers and Marketers Inspire Change – Photoville 2018 Featuring: Andrew Fingerman (Moderator), Patrick Egan, Bayeté Ross Smith, Sarah Matheson It’s no secret that nonprofit organizations contribute enormously to our society, providing invaluable services and championing causes that better our world. But to accomplish their goals, these institutions rely deeply on photographers and visual storytellers to shed light on their missions and help raise money and support. In this panel, we’ll be joined by photographers and nonprofit directors to discuss how creatives and marketers work together to bring important stories to life and inspire action — all while navigating tight resources and budgets. Discover how photographers are helping advance the work of important social causes today and learn how you can connect with the organizations you care most about.

When starting Driftless I had just entered grad school and was sick of the digital revolution and how photography was becoming more about technology than storytelling. Conversations in the industry and academia at the time seemed to lose sight of what I think photography does best, address social issues with a direct and compassionate visual voice. Life's love and pain...economics, politics, war, pollution, disease; all the issues impacting communities the world over and needing to be witnessed. Documentary was taking on new forms and approaches at the time, while some practiced with devotion to tradition; women and men producing impactful work like those Cornell Capa called, "concerned photographers.” The industry, generally speaking, seemed more focused on more lucrative commercial concerns like megapixel wars and social media clicks. With those mind-numbing debates behind me and entering a space meant for personal and professional exploration, my approach in Driftless was to strip away all photographic concerns, to work with the simplest tools, and focus intensely on all I heard, saw, and felt. For this talk, I want to bring people into the simple idea of putting their subjects before all else. To cherish the opportunity to learn firsthand about those we photograph and the issues surrounding our interactions and collaborations with them. To put aside gear, deadlines, Instagram, and anything else that gets in the way and focus on living with the story. https://player.vimeo.com/video/694299786 4540 2022-03-31T06:29:37+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/open-source-intelligence-an-investigative-journalism-workshop/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/vimeo-12665.jpg Open-Source Intelligence - An Investigative Journalism Workshop Open-source intelligence (OSINT), publicly available data sources used in the verification of information and events, is integral to the work of many investigative journalists. Increasingly hostile or inaccessible reporting environments, and the weaponisation of disinformation, have intensified the need for verifiable source information to ensure the authenticity and integrity of independent reporting. In this special extended online event, we examine the application of open-source intelligence strategies within media and justice contexts. This two-hour workshop will introduce a range of practical OSINT tools, consider accessibility and online safety, and examine case studies, including long-term operations within closed states and recent high-profile events across the U.S. and Europe, where OSINT tools have enabled critical forensic analysis and reporting. Join David Campbell in discussion with a panel of expert guests; Documentary filmmaker and investigative journalist, Sara Creta, whose research focuses on the intersection of emerging technology and human rights; Davide Piscitelli, Advanced Researcher at Forensic Architecture, a research agency based at Goldsmiths, University of London; and Francesco Sebregondi, architect and researcher specialising in digital investigation, particularly the use of visual and spatial analysis to document violence and human rights violations. https://player.vimeo.com/video/1179415464 8523 2026-04-02T00:44:31+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/oscar-b-castillo-documenting-life-in-caracas-venezuela/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-9278.jpg Oscar B.

PhotoWings connected with Oscar during the 2014 Foundry Photojournalism Workshop where he was once a pupil and now is an instructor. He told us about the difficulties and rewards of bringing his photojournalism practice to his home of Caracas, where gang violence and corrupt politics plague the city and its people. Of this work Oscar says: "there's an ugly side [to Caracas], but let's try to make it better - let's try to improve it, let's try to make it more beautiful, let's try [so] that the people, the histories, don't fall away and fade." https://player.vimeo.com/video/122664985 231 2015-03-19T17:32:06+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/oscar-castillo-venezuela-the-crescent-project-foundry-photojournalism-workshop-2017/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-8986.jpg Oscar Castillo: Venezuela & the Crescent Project - Foundry Photojournalism Workshop 2017 A 17-minute video featuring Oscar Castillo, from the Foundry Workshop collection of the PhotoWings Media Archive. https://player.vimeo.com/video/251716810 991 2018-01-18T21:28:01+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/outreach-program-spotlight-global-nomads-group-campfire-program/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-9012.jpg Outreach Program Spotlight: Global Nomads Group – Campfire Program A 4-minute video, from the PhotoWings Media Archive. https://player.vimeo.com/video/239743405 256 2017-10-25T00:55:55+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/outreach-spotlight-interview-austin-merrill-on-the-everyday-projects/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-9044.jpg Outreach Spotlight Interview: Austin Merrill on the Everyday Projects A 4-minute interview featuring Austin Merrill, from the Everyday Projects collection of the PhotoWings Media Archive. https://player.vimeo.com/video/219922771 257 2017-06-01T21:49:34+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/pablo-circa-legacy-archive-night-of-photojournalism-2025-san-francisco/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/vimeo-10803-1.jpg Pablo Circa: Legacy Archive - Night of Photojournalism 2025 - San Francisco Photographer Pablo Circa shared reflections on his "Legacy Archive" project, a visual storytelling initiative dedicated to preserving Black cultural memory.

Hear from a group of researchers, reporters, and communication specialists who played a role in this remarkable arc. We'll explore how storytellers can help scientists communicate their findings with public audiences and change-makers and highlight the differing incentives, techniques, and contributions of different players in this mix. Panelists: Craig Welch has worked as the environment reporter at The Seattle Times since 2000. A journalist for two decades, his work has appeared in Smithsonian magazine, the Washington Post, and Newsweek. He has tagged along with tribal fishermen who hunted seals in Alaska, hitched helicopter rides with scientists in the melting Arctic, prowled the Oregon woods for endangered owls, and tracked the development of Wyoming's oil fields. The national Society of Environmental Journalists twice named him Outstanding Beat Reporter of the Year, most recently in 2010. He was a 2007 fellow at the Nieman Foundation for Journalism at Harvard University and lives in Washington State. Shell Games is his first book. Terrie Klinger is a marine ecologist who focuses on applying ecological theory to practical management solutions.

Two years ago, photojournalist Peter DiCampo started sharing iPhone snapshots while on assignment in West Africa. Now he's breaking down media stereotypes with a team of 20 contributing photographers, 90,000 Instagram followers, and spin-offs starting in other continents. He shares what he's learned about how visual streams and camera phones are changing the rules of photojournalism, visual literacy and audience engagement. Peter DiCampo launched his freelance career while also working as a Peace Corps Volunteer in rural Ghana. His photography has been published by National Geographic, TIME, Newsweek, The New York Times, GEO, Foreign Policy Magazine, and many others. In 2012, Peter was named one of PDN's 30 Emerging Photographers to Watch and received the Photocrati Fund grant. Other accolades include first prize in The British Journal of Photography 2010 IPA and three grants from The Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting. Life Without Lights, Peter's global project on Energy Poverty, has exhibited in London, New York, Rio de Janeiro, Vienna, Hannover (Germany), and Lagos. https://player.vimeo.com/video/109260579 1848 2014-10-17T17:15:10+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/peter-dicampo-everyday-perspectives/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-9282.jpg Peter DiCampo: Everyday Perspectives Award-winning photographer Peter DiCampo sat down with PhotoWings to discuss the genesis and phenomenal success of the social photography project Everyday Africa, which has led to a community of more than 20 unique Everyday projects called Everyday Everywhere. The project seeks to encourage empathy and understanding by documenting relatable and contextual images, in addition to those made with stereotypical narratives. Founded by journalists DiCampo and Austin Merrill, the project has used the shareability of social media to reach a global audience. The idea that started Everyday Africa has evolved into a growing community of other "Everyday" projects, with photographic storytellers creating new feeds such as @EverydayUSA, @EverydayAsia, @EverydayLatinAmerica, and @EverydayClimateChange. The educational potential for these projects is enormous.

The projects explore how themes such as climate change, identity, history, legacy, migration, gender, and environment appear within a local perspective. The upcoming edition of Square Mile, curated especially for the PhotoVogue festival, offers an insight into the work of twelve photographers. They show humanity’s multifaceted connection to the natural world, explore the resilience of communities deeply rooted in their land, and pay respect to ancestral traditions.

She speaks about her experience as an adopted child and not having access to the photographs of her biological family. In her experience, much of her past is concentrated solely on an ophanage ID portrait that shows her as an infant. She also believes that her relationships to snapshots changed once she became a professional photographer, but she does find the thought of lost family photographs sad and moving. Agnès Dherbeys is a Bangkok-based 35-year-old French photographer. She graduated with honours from the Master of Institut d’Etudes Politiques (Sciences Politics) of Lyon and from master 2 of Sciences of Information and Communication from Celsa, Sorbonne IV. She learned photography when she moved to Bangkok in 2001, and has since mainly focused her work in Nepal, East Timor, Indonesia, Cambodia and Thailand, with some parentheses in the Palestinian Territories/Israel. Her 2010 coverage of the Red Shirts unrest in Thailand last April and May 2010, was exhibited at the Bangkok Art Cultural Center in RUPTURE exhibition, curated by Olivier Pin. With this body of work, published in the New York Times, she recently was awarded THE ROBERT CAPA GOLD MEDAL AWARD of the OPC, for “Best published photographic reporting from abroad requiring exceptional courage and enterprise”.

"Imagining Then" was undertaken in order for her to process the emotions brought on by confronting a family history she only became aware of as an adult. Brigitte was born in Germany during the Second World War. Her parents separated when she was three. While fighting for Nazi Germany, her father was captured by American troops and remained estranged from her until 1976. Shortly after the war, she and her mother immigrated to the US to begin a new life. When Brigitte was 35, her father finally made contact with her. After reconnecting to her birth father and her family, she spent the next 10 years trying to understand and interpret what she learned. "Imagining Then" was the product of her journey. Brigitte Carnochan is a well-respected fine art photographer and an articulate educator, currently teaching at Stanford University. In "Imagining Then," she shares her uniquely personal story in words and memories through a collaged tapestry of historically relevant Platinum Palladium photographs. Acting as much of a historian as an artist, Brigitte takes the odds and ends of old photographs and documents and joins them together to create a richer, meaningful narrative of her family history. brigittecarnochan.com PhotoWings' mission is to highlight and help facilitate the power of photography to influence the world.

Sudan’s popular uprising began in December 2018. For five months, risking arrest and torture by the regime’s police, the Sudanese people took to the streets by the thousands. Driven by the will to document resistance and repression, a new generation of photographers emerged. These artists, aged between 19 and 30, broadcast their photos through social networks. They were both actors and observers of this historical moment. In this event, Saad Eltinay and Muhammed Salah discuss photography in Sudan, how they pictured the revolution, and what comes next. (Duha Mohammed was scheduled to participate but was sadly ill on the day). https://player.vimeo.com/video/637279802 3830 2026-03-03T15:54:37-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/photography-and-social-media/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/vimeo-10917.jpg Photography and Social Media Photography and Social Media Presented by Adobe Featuring Daniella Zalcman, Alice Gao, Dave Krugman and moderated by Pei Ketron Photoville 2019 Talks On-demand recordings are made possible in partnership with PhotoWIngs with additional support by the Philip and Edith Leonian Foundation Sharing photos via social media is becoming the norm for photographers, but how do you effectively shoot, select, and edit for social media?

Extreme weather and rising temperatures are destabilizing communities across the globe and pushing people from their homes. This conversation featuring Photojournalist Nichole Sobecki, Journalist Laura Heaton and award winning foreign correspondent and The ground Truth Project Founder and Executive producer, Charles Sennott, will explore how the major challenges of our time — migration, extremism, conflict over dwindling natural resources — have roots in climate change. From Afghanistan to Colombia and Somalia, environmental changes have dire implications for security and are harbingers of global risks to come. What’s being done to address these concerns? What more can be done? How can visual storytelling help? ----- Nichole Sobecki is a photographer and filmmaker based in Nairobi, Kenya, and represented internationally by Panos Pictures. She began her career in Turkey, Lebanon, and Syria, focusing on regional issues related to identity, conflict, and human rights, before leading Agence France-Presse’s East Africa video bureau from 2012-2015.

We spoke to ILP staff and participants about the poignant and educational experiences they shared in the project, learning to better connect across generations through personal photos. In this project, participants selected photos from their photo albums to bring to meetings that pair students and staff from the DCU community with older learners from the ILP in order to discuss their pictures and to reflect on and write stories about their experience. These stories are then published on the project blog, sharing the power of photography and storytelling with the world. In addition to this, new photographs were taken for the project on the theme of “your age” and a competition took place, each photo judged by photographers from well-known newspapers and advertising agencies. An exhibition of these photos takes place on campus, so that participants and interested viewers from the university and local community can see the photographs, read reflections, and discuss the results of the project.

They help photography to be better understood, created, utilized, seen, and saved. Suzie Katz is a photographer, speaker, educator, producer, and is giving back to the world that has given her so much by creating and running an educational non-profit organization called PhotoWings. Our mission is to highlight and help facilitate the power of photography to influence the world. We help photogra- phy to be better understood, created, utilized, seen, and saved.Through her own photography experiences, she has a developed a deep understanding of the un- der-utilized skills, knowledge, and wisdom honed by the world’s best storytellers and related professionals. These can also be an important inspiration to others’ work and lives both inside and outside the photo silo across generations, cultures, and disciplines. Such ideas can be utilized for self-discovery, better communica- tion, critical thinking, visual literacy, resilience, storytelling and understanding con- text, among others, and are also valued as social emotional learning and executive function skills. To document and more richly utilize that legacy we’ve created, along with our in- novative partners, 100’s of hours of interviews, presentations, and other educa- tional content incorporating these ideas for replication, adaptation, or inspiration. Suzie also thinks a lot about better utilizing the often under-appreciated value and potential of photos. To do that, however, involves saving images from being lost to the world. Photos that may not seem important today can be deeply important legacy later for loved ones, for multiple uses in education, and valued as history. So many photos are tossed, lost to the elements or technology in what is sometimes referred to as the “digital dark ages” that they’re no longer available, so an import- ant aspect of our work is to proactively address this timely issue.

Perpetrated under the guise of Hindu tradition, the root cause of this violence is the belief in the impurity of a women’s menstrual blood. Hidden, under-reported and unresolved, these women are untouchable and, as a result, this violence takes the form of ‘exiles,” a way to keep menstruation shrouded in mystery and taboo, a weapon to shame women into subservience. In a world that is ravaged by war, the media is often full of images of those affected by conflict but, for many, the conflict begins at home. This multidisciplinary project, combining still photography and virtual reality films, is designed to reach multiple audiences across different platforms, including print, virtual and physical installations. "I want to turn my audience into activists and crack open the veil of silence and shame around women whose lives are shattered by such gender based violence," Basu says. A Ritual of Exile reveals how the chaupadi ritual disrupts the lives of girls, exposes them to recurring danger and imposes unjust restrictions on women throughout their lives. Poulomi Basu is a storyteller, artist and activist. Her name sounds like ‘follow me’ with a ‘P’. She was raised by her mother in Calcutta, India and found early inspiration in the city’s rich cinematic history. After her father’s sudden death when Poulomi was 17, her mother told her to leave home, to follow her dreams and live a life of breadth and choices that was denied to her. Since then, Poulomi prefers the path less trodden. She has slept in the wilderness under a cloudless sky staring at a million stars in search of a guerrilla army whose story strikes right at the very heart of modern India’s global ambitions, through to divided families eking out an Alaskan existence on the last rocky outpost of American soil. Time and again, she has found herself amongst ordinary people who quietly challenge the prevailing orthodoxies ... https://player.vimeo.com/video/219736164 1809 2017-05-31T19:10:24+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/present-your-work-public-speaking-tips-from-smita-sharma/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/vimeo-10215-1.jpg Present Your Work - Public Speaking Tips from Smita Sharma Standing out in photography takes more than great images—it requires the ability to share your work effectively.

In this video, veteran photojournalists Andrea Bruce, Carol Guzy, and Adriana Zehbrauskas open up about the difficulties of photojournalism work, and give a few examples of how they cope with hardship. Carol Guzy is a staff photographer for The Washington Post. She graduated in 1978 with an associate's degree in registered nursing from Northhampton County Area Community College in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, her hometown. A change of heart led her to study photography at the Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale, Florida, where she graduated in 1980 with an applied science associate's degree in photography. While at the Art Institute she interned at the Miami Herald which hired her as a staff photographer upon her graduation. After eight years there during which she won the 1986 Pulitzer Prize for Spot News Photography (as one of a two-member team covering the Armero, Columbia mudslide), she moved to Washington, D.C. to become a staff photographer for The Washington Post. Through documentary photography, Andrea Bruce brings attention to people living in the aftermath of war. She is a co-owner and member of the photo agency NOOR. For eight years she has chronicled the world's most troubled areas as a staff photographer for The Washington Post. She focused on Iraq from 2003 to the present, following the intricacies and obstacles of the conflict experienced by Iraqis and the US military. She also wrote a weekly column for The Post called "Unseen Iraq." Her awards include top honors from the White House News Photographers Association (where she has been named Photographer of the Year four times), several awards from the International Pictures of the Year contest, and the prestigious John Faber award from the Overseas Press Club in New York. She has also been a finalist for The Aftermath Project grant and a 2011 recipient of the Alicia Patterson Foundation Fellowship. In 2010 she received the WHNPA... https://player.vimeo.com/video/384916115 148 2020-01-15T01:56:20+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/ptsd-the-lasting-effects-of-photojournalism/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-8795.jpg PTSD: The Lasting Effects of Photojournalism The life of a photojournalist can be hard and dangerous, and none are immune from the detrimental effects of PTSD. In this video, award-winning photojournalists Mary Calvert, MaryAnne Golon, Ron Haviv, Lynn Johnson, John Moore, and Nichole Sobecki give expert advice about how they deal with low moments and cultivate resilience. Mary Calvert is committed to using photography to affect meaningful social change and is known for producing work on gender-based human rights issues. Calvert has been focusing her journalistic attention on the continually under-reported relegation and abuse of women in the US Armed Forces. Calvert has won the Robert F.

Science is based on experimental results and observations. Personal biases and scientific inaccuracies are minimized by the use of peer review. Photographers looking to tell the story of scientific research must strive to tell the science as accurately as possible while still presenting compelling images. Alasdair Turner will present examples from his current project on Antarctic science to illustrate how to raise awareness of important scientific work using photos that accurately represent scientific work while still keeping the viewer engaged through compelling imagery. alasdairturner.com Presentation from the 2016 Blue Earth Alliance Collaborations for Cause conference in Seattle Washington at the Seattle Public Library.

Roosevelt sought a clear break from his predecessor’s policies, the first 100 days of a presidential term has been a marker that elicits a flood of media analysis, including photo features highlighting what editors judge to be the top images of the new era. In this event, we will speak with Dr. Michael Shaw, a renowned analyst of American news imagery and publisher of Reading the Pictures. However, given the authoritarian and autocratic nature of the Trump administration’s assault on democratic norms, freedom of the press, the rule of law, and the separation of powers, this edit will look different than the others you will likely see in the media. This discussion will focus on images that serve as a counterpoint to, or defiance of, the normalization of the extreme and often unlawful actions taken by the Trump administration that have fomented a constitutional crisis. These news photographs, especially those posted on social media, editorialize the administration’s actions. These photographs provide a critical perspective on the destruction of established values and institutions, prompting a deeper examination of political actions and the anger, disbelief, and fear that has emerged for many in response to what the administration is doing. The discussion will also reflect on the administration’s information strategy of inundating the media with information – especially through the proliferation of Executive Orders – as a means to potentially overwhelming the press’s capacity to critically assess and more closely inspect the implications of each action. https://player.vimeo.com/video/1077671151 4549 2026-03-03T15:49:10-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/reading-the-pictures-pete-souza-and-michael-shaw-photoville-2017/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-8960.jpg Reading the Pictures: Pete Souza and Michael Shaw – Photoville 2017 Pete Souza is the former Chief Official White House Photographer for President Ronald Reagan and President Barack Obama, and the former director of the White House Photography Office.

After elections in 2010, the military junta was replaced with a democratically elected government. Aung San Suu Kyi was released from house arrest and assumed the head of government role following further elections in 2015. Despite her prominence as a political prisoner and Nobel Peace Prize winner, the Myanmar government and military were severely criticized during her time in office for their role in the genocide against the Rohingya and their prosecution of journalists. On 1 February 2021, Myanmar’s military leaders carried out another coup deposing the democratically elected government that was returned in late 2020. In response, protests became a nationwide uprising known as the Spring Revolution. Although these protests were peaceful in the beginning, they became increasingly violent as the military responded with deadly force, firing live ammunition at civilian protesters. The Assistance Association for Political Prisoners reports more than 9,400 people were arrested and 1,500 killed by junta forces in the months following the coup. By the end of 2021, the military was still in power. However, a parallel opposition government and its armed division prevented the military from consolidating complete control over the country, and resistance continued. Journalists attempting to cover the resistance have faced intimidation, harassment, and violence. In a move to suppress reporting on the ongoing massacre of their own people, the military set about criminalizing journalism – revoking media licenses, ransacking newsrooms, beating, arresting, and imprisoning editors, reporters, and staff. According to Reporters Without Borders (RSF), 115 journalists were arrested in Myanmar in 2021 while covering protests or after being tracked down by the intelligence services, and three were killed. Myanmar photographers have been documenting these events despite this hostile en... https://player.vimeo.com/video/751574777 3395 2022-09-20T08:36:14+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/reporting-on-war-in-afghanistan/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/vimeo-10579-1.jpg Reporting on War in Afghanistan On 7 October 2001, the United States and its allies launched “Operation Enduring Freedom” with airstrikes against Taliban forces in Afghanistan. As part of the Bush administration’s “war on terror” retaliating against those responsible for the 11 September 2001 terrorist attacks on New York and Washington, this military action began what would become America’s longest-ever military engagement. US forces and NATO troops remained in Afghanistan even after the 2014 handover of security responsibility to Afghan national forces. Now, after the deaths of 47,000 Afghan civilians, 66,000 Afghan police and soldiers, 2,400 US military personnel, 1,100 allied forces – and the expenditure of more than $2 trillion – the Taliban has retaken Afghanistan. The collapse of the Afghan government and its military, and the chaotic withdrawal of western personnel from Afghanistan, was triggered by the Biden administration’s policy of getting all US forces out of Afghanistan by 9 September 2021 (a deadline that was four months later than agreed in the Trump administration’s February 2021 peace deal with the Taliban). The triumph of Taliban forces committed to establishing the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan imperils the human rights of many in the Afghan population whose life had improved somewhat in the last twenty years. VII Agency was founded a few days before the terrorist attacks of 11 September 2001, and the first assignment was photographing the aftermath of those attacks, in both the US and Afghanistan. In the last twenty years, many VII photographers have reported extensively on the war in Afghanistan, building on work they did in the 1980s and 1990s prior to American involvement with boots on the ground. This special event offers a retrospective of some of VII’s coverage, with contributions from the late Alexandra Boulat, Ron Haviv, Christopher Morris, Seamus Murphy, and Daniel Schwartz.

Reporting the Siege of Sarajevo provides the first detailed account of the reporting of this siege and the role that journalists played in highlighting both military and non-military aspects of it. The book draws on detailed primary and secondary material in English and Bosnian, as well as extensive interviews with international correspondents who covered events in Sarajevo from within siege lines. It also includes hitherto unpublished images taken by the co-author and award-winning photojournalist Paul Lowe. In this VII Insider talk, Lowe and co-author Kenneth Morrison discuss the book in conversation with VII photographers and co-founders who covered the siege — Ron Haviv and Christopher Morris. They overview the scope and structure of the book, the process of putting it together, their experiences covering the historic event, and the siege’s importance to the history of the journalism profession. Dr. Paul Lowe is a Reader in Documentary Photography and the Course Leader of the Masters program in Photojournalism and Documentary Photography at the London College of Communication, University of the Arts, London, UK.

People on the move are frequently nameless and dehumanized, deepening the rift between them and the local population, creating an atmosphere of alienation, antipathy, and, too often, violence. This event begins with a presentation by David Campbell discussing research on the politics of refugee representations. It then showcases a project that mitigates this fragmented and distorted narrative by providing migrants in Bosnia and Herzegovina with basic media training and a portal, “Dispatches in Exile,” through which to publish their reports and tell their stories directly. The “Dispatches in Exile” project is led by VII Academy curator Ziyah Gafic and produced in partnership with the International Organization for Migration (IOM). Ziyah will discuss how this project was created, its purpose, and its impact. https://player.vimeo.com/video/663511209 3774 2022-01-07T23:32:38+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/robert-king-shooting-robert-king-foundry-photojournalism-workshop-2013/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-9348.jpg Robert King: “Shooting Robert King,” Foundry Photojournalism Workshop 2013 With the crucial ability to work in the wrong place at the right time, photojournalist Robert King spent the first 15 years of his career as the subject for an acclaimed documentary, “Shooting Robert King.” The film provides an unflinching look into King’s development from young, naive photographer in the Bosnian War into a serious freelance professional.

The film tells the story of Toño Zúñiga, a man who was wrongfully convicted of murder in Mexico City. Through documenting his life in prison and his legal struggles to regain his freedom, the film made a compelling case for criminal justice reform in Mexico and challenged dominant policy narratives. The film’s impact was unexpectedly explosive. Its depiction of Mexico’s court system was so realistic and embarrassing that a federal judge issued a ban. In response to the censorship, the film was uploaded to YouTube and pirated DVD copies flooded the streets. Today, Presumed Guilty remains the most successful documentary in Mexican history. According to polls, one in every three Mexicans has seen the film. Layda Negrete and Roberto Hernández, the filmmakers, will discuss their experience making Presumed Guilty and explain how the film helped catalyze national judicial reforms in Mexico. Roberto Hernández (Director/Producer) was trained as a lawyer in Mexico and Canada and had no particular interest in cameras or film until he found himself collecting statistics in the basement of Mexico City's Superior Court, which houses the archived legal cases of one of the largest cities in the world. What he saw inspired him and his wife, Layda Negrete, to make "El Túnel," a short documentary that presented scandalous facts about Mexico's justice system and was broadcast on several television stations throughout Mexico. As a result of the support the film received, in 2008 Mexico's Congress passed the most significant amendment to its constitution's due process clause, requiring public trials and the presumption of innocence. But Hernández, currently a graduate student in public policy at the University of California, Berkeley, notes, "The implementation of this reform is hardly progressing at all, as the Mexican government today remains ostensibly focused on an offensive against drug cartels." https://player.vimeo.com/video/219736186 1840 2017-05-31T19:10:33+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/robin-moore-back-from-the-brink-wildspeak-presentation-2016/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-8857.jpg Robin Moore - Back From the Brink - WildSpeak Presentation 2016 Several scientific and photographic expeditions, leading to new species discoveries and lost species rediscoveries, have formed the basis of innovative outreach efforts to engage people in the conservation of Haiti’s remaining forests and their unique wildlife.

With a background in space and science photography for National Geographic, Time and The New York Times, as well as key learnings from his current endeavor, Roger shares hope, practical advice and collaborative ideas on how all of us can work together to move projects from vision to completion. Roger Ressmeyer is a photographer, filmmaker, and CEO. Roger began his photography career as a rock n’ roll photographer and celebrity shooter before making the transition to science photographer and film stock agency executive. He has worked on assignment for Rolling Stone, Newsweek, LIFE, Time, Smithsonian, and National Geographic. He owned and operated the Starlight Photo Agency for 14 years until July 1995, when it, along with more than a half-million of his images, became the first major acquisition by Corbis, Bill Gates’ privately-owned image archive. Following this transition, Ressmeyer held senior management positions first at Corbis and then at Getty Images. In 2005, he again struck out on his own and founded Science Faction, a leading photo agency that focused on technology and space-related images. In 2012, Science Faction was acquired by SuperStock, clearing the way for Ressmeyer to start a film project he’s been planning since 1989. His deep passion for science and spirituality is the fuel behind Ressmeyer’s latest venture, the Visions of Tomorrow Foundation, a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit educational foundation focused on building awareness for scientific and spiritual solutions that address the world’s biggest problems. For the foundation he is working on a new documentary feature film, currently in pre-production, that will bring together the world’s leading scientists, engineers and spiritual leaders to explore solutions to some of our planet’s biggest challenges – from climate change to inequality and war.

As part of the Telling History Project with the Children’s Movement for Creative Education, Ron brought his photos into high schools to teach human rights and conflict resolution. His photos worked as a conversation starter and built bridges across cultures: “We went into inner city schools — schools that were broken apart because of gangs — and when explaining to them the story of the former Yugoslavia or Darfur or Rwanda, they actually understood it in a very special and quick way because it really mirrored their own lives,” he says.

Documenting these mountains and their bio-cultural richness has been something of a passion for Sandesh Kadur. Working closely with ATREE, a conservation organization, Sandesh’s work over the last two decades, in the form of books and documentaries, has brought a much-needed spotlight on two little known regions. These books and documentaries served as ammunition in helping get the Western Ghats declared as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. As India continues forward in its economic growth, and its population continues to increase, it will be more and more critical to protect these mountains of life into the future. https://player.vimeo.com/video/322160964 1929 2026-02-19T15:29:59-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/sandunga-nunca-muere-daniel-aros-aguilar-photoville-education-field-trip/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/vimeo-10377-1.jpg SANDUNGA NUNCA MUERE | Daniel Aros-Aguilar | Photoville Education Field Trip Daniel Aros-Aguilar (he/she/them) is a gender non-conforming artist born in Colombia and now based in Harlem.

Chapter LGBTQIA+ Grant for their series “Sandunga Nunca Muere.” "Juchitan de Zaragosa is a city located in the Isthmus of Tehuantepec in Oaxaca, Mexico. Due to the bottleneck effect created by the region’s location, the isthmus is known for its vibrancy and diversity and for holding women at the center of the family. Today, most Juchitan continues to practice their Zapotec tongue and live by their Native and European-influenced customs and traditions. Some of these traditions transcend colonization, including the affirmation of the third gender. Muxes or Muxhes are neither male nor female. A Muxe, in dilutive terms, is a gender outside of the binary that, at times, is sexually attracted to the same sex. Muxes, like many other pre-colonial queer identities, are affirmations that sexuality and gender are beyond a Christianized definition of morality. We, I speak of anyone that has lived the queer experience, are here and have always been here, even before the documented times." https://player.vimeo.com/video/864071497 1420 2026-03-03T15:51:25-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/santiago-lyon-the-content-authenticity-initiative/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-8527.jpg Santiago Lyon | The Content Authenticity Initiative A 6-minute video featuring Santiago Lyon, from the Eddie Adams Workshop collection of the PhotoWings Media Archive. https://player.vimeo.com/video/895985562 383 2023-12-18T21:54:45+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/santiago-lyon-working-in-afghanistan/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-8517.jpg Santiago Lyon | Working in Afghanistan A 4-minute video featuring Santiago Lyon, from the Eddie Adams Workshop collection of the PhotoWings Media Archive. https://player.vimeo.com/video/965125208 260 2024-06-22T05:13:54+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/sara-terry-on-collaboration/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-8758.jpg Sara Terry on Collaboration In this video, award-winning photographer Sara Terry discusses how the seemingly solitary work of photography is actually very collaborative, from the connection between a photographer and their subject, to working with distribution partners, and how collaboration can be energizing and supportive.

The Foundry Photojournalism Workshop offers majority world students who could not otherwise afford it a chance to learn from some of the world's most well respected photojournalists and photography professionals. Sarah Waiswa is a Ugandan born Kenya-based freelance documentary and portrait photographer with an interest in exploring identity on the African continent, particularly the New African Identity. Her work focuses on changing the narrative on Africa by generating dialogue on developing issues through visual documentation. She is currently involved in a Trans African photographic journey, documenting daily city life in all 54 countries of Africa over a period of five years. After getting both her sociology and psychology degrees and working in a corporate position for a number of years, she decided to pursue photography full time. It was one of the hardest/easiest decisions she ever made. A storyteller, Sarah’s work focuses on identity and explores themes surrounding isolation and belonging. From the persecution of people with Albinism, to children practicing ballet in Kibera. In more recent work, in the long-term project Kimbanguism, Sarah explores the Kimbanguist faith as an afro Christian movement but one rooted in resistance against a colonial regime that imprisoned their black messiah for 30 years. Her portraiture project, "Stranger in a Familiar Land", explores the persecution of albinos in sub-Saharan Africa, in which they are hunted for the perceived magical powers of their body parts.

Their friendship began in Northern Iraq a few days before the war started in 2003. After that first encounter, they worked together in Africa covering stories about religion and conflict with the underlying theme of the dangers of Christians and Muslims competing in various regions for resources. A trip through Pennsylvania to examine failing infrastructure and post-industrial life led to a story on fracking in The New York Times Magazine. On this trip, Eliza met Stacey Haney and her family who were caught up in a dispute with the fracking industry, and who became the focus of her Pulitzer Prize-winning book, Amity and Prosperity, In addition to prose, Eliza was also writing poetry, personal work that reflected some of their projects and experiences (two volumes were published: Wide Awake Field, and If Men, Then). Poetry brought Seamus and Eliza together again as they traveled through Afghanistan on multiple journeys to find, document, and translate in words and pictures landays–spoken word Pashtu poems created by anonymous Afghan women which clandestinely traveled around the culture. The search produced a story in The New York Times Magazine about women’s poetry in Afghanistan. Their work on landays became an entire edition of Poetry Magazine, as well as a book – I am the Beggar of the World, and the short film, “Snake.” https://player.vimeo.com/video/694304821 4483 2022-03-31T06:51:52+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/sebastian-liste-evening-presentation-foundry-photojournalism-workshop-2018/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-8865.jpg Sebastián Liste Evening Presentation – Foundry Photojournalism Workshop 2018 Sebastián Liste (Spain) is a documentary photographer and sociologist immersed and devoted to document the profound cultural changes and contemporary issues in Latin America and the Mediterranean Sea area, regions where he grew up and knows well.

And stories are not limited to just one screen. From adolescence to old age, from game consoles to iPhone apps, for both male and females, economic, technological and cultural convergence are forces driving new approaches to storytelling not just in Hollywood fiction, but in non-fiction storytelling as well. As makers of “serious” stories, what is the role of game play in visual documentaries? How can a story be unfolded successfully across multiple platforms? What, in fact, is the connection between multi-platform storytelling and game strategy?

Kyle’s work is driven by a commitment to empowering and building empathy within and towards marginalized communities and families, whether biological or through shared circumstances. Kyle has exhibited in shows in New York City at Soho Photo Gallery and Pearl River Gallery. "Sowing Rice with Salt explores how immigration affects the relationship dynamics between generations, particularly its impact on the younger generation. This exploration occurs between an archival image of an immigrant parent and an interpretive recreation of the archival image with the child. This image is accompanied with the child’s written reflections on their relationship to their parent and ancestral culture. As a child of immigrants, I often weigh questions like: How can children of immigrants reconnect with a familial history and culture that they are spiritually, but less physically, connected to? How does history and culture get passed down through the generations despite the forces of assimilation? How do the children of immigrants cope with feelings of cultural loss? Growing up, I felt isolated in my exploration of these questions. Sowing Rice With Salt sheds light on the interconnected struggles of children of immigrants through exploring the most formative and intimate, yet often strained, relationship. By visually placing the child in the shoes of the past version of a parent, the adjacent images devise a visual bridge where the child can empathetically imagine their parent’s past, suturing the gaps which arise from diverse upbringings, traditions, and hardships across diasporic landing points." https://player.vimeo.com/video/864071450 660 2023-09-13T16:58:40+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/spanish-harlem/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/vimeo-10931.jpg Spanish Harlem Spanish Harlem Presented by Photoville Featuring Joseph Rodriguez and David Gonzalez Photoville 2019 Talks On-demand recordings are made possible in partnership with PhotoWIngs with additional support by the Philip and Edith Leonian Foundation Joe Rodriguez and David Gonzalez will be discussing his groundbreaking National Geographic cover on Spanish Harlem in the 1980s, looking back on a vital New York City community that is undergoing increasing gentrification.

Through grants, scholarships and special projects, The Alexia Foundation supports photographers as agents for social change. At a time when many other resources have dwindled, The Alexia Foundation, a 501(c)(3) organization, remains unwavering in its commitment to support photojournalism on academic and professional levels. The foundation believes that there is no stronger force in bringing us closer to the world we inhabit. The Alexia Foundation was named in honor of Alexia Tsairis, a 20 year old student at the Newhouse School of Public Communications at Syracuse University, who was lost in the terrorist bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie Scotland in 1988. She was one of 270 innocent people who were lost that day. https://player.vimeo.com/video/223852544 436 2017-07-01T00:58:05+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/the-anthropocene-illusion-with-zed-nelson/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/vimeo-10175-1.jpg The Anthropocene Illusion with Zed Nelson Join award-winning photographer Zed Nelson as he discusses his new work, The Anthropocene Illusion. Spanning the last six years, the project explores how, while we destroy the natural world around us, we humans have become masters of a stage-managed, artificial ‘experience’ of nature – a reassuring spectacle, an illusion. The work reveals not only a phenomenon of denial and self-delusion, but also a genuine craving for a connection to a world we have turned our back on. Hosted by contributing photographer to The VII Foundation Ilvy Njiokiktjien, the discussion will also explore Zed’s photographic approach, driven by a critical focus on the intersection of modern capitalism and human psychology. https://player.vimeo.com/video/1119542292 5332 2026-03-03T15:48:50-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/the-art-of-the-pitch-preparing-and-writing-proposals-grants-and-more-photoville-2018/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-8903.jpg The Art of the Pitch: Preparing and writing proposals, grants, and more – Photoville 2018 Featuring: Emma Raynes, Laura Roumanos You have been working on a long term project for years, what is next?

However, the consequences of manipulating photographs are potentially far-reaching and long-term. In recent years, advances in digital technology have led many to question whether photographs of war and conflict can ever be trusted. The conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East, as well as other world events, have lent urgency to this debate. Drawing on an incredible range of imagery from the Imperial War Museum’s vast collection and other major archives around the globe, expert curator Hilary Roberts presents a new perspective on the role of image manipulation in this field over the past 170 years, exploring the consequences for our understanding of historic and contemporary conflicts. Join Ron Haviv in conversation with Hilary Roberts as they discuss the complicated relationship between conflict photography and the ‘truth’. The discussion will explore the application and legacy of photomanipulation techniques in conflict photography and the myriad ways in which layers of meaning can be added, erased, or changed completely. https://player.vimeo.com/video/1217439409 5172 2026-08-11T20:28:37+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/the-compassionate-classroom-session-1/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-8523.jpg The Compassionate Classroom - Session 1 This is Session 1 of the 2023 EDU Lab: An introduction to Healing Centered Engagement and practical tools for the classroom that incorporate SEL, led by Danny Arenas, LMSW https://player.vimeo.com/video/901293833 6031 2024-01-09T21:17:20+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/the-compassionate-classroom-session-2/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-8525.jpg The Compassionate Classroom - Session 2 This is Session 2 of the 2023 Edu Lab: A presentation by Bard High School Teacher, Alexis Lambrou and Bard High School Students, highlighting their dynamic project, “Speaking Portraits” that was awarded a 2023 Photoville Educator Grant. https://player.vimeo.com/video/901293817 3089 2024-01-09T21:17:16+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/the-compassionate-classroom-session-3/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-8521.jpg The Compassionate Classroom - Session 3 This is the final session of the 2023 EDU Lab: A curriculum workshop with artist/educator Lacresha Berry. https://player.vimeo.com/video/901293848 4292 2024-01-09T21:17:24+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/the-critical-role-of-a-photo-agency-in-the-professional-life-of-a-contemporary-photographer/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-8643.jpg The Critical Role of a Photo Agency in the Professional Life of a Contemporary Photographer How do agencies enhance your place in the market? Marcel Saba of Redux in conversation with Ron Haviv and Maggie Steber Long before co-founding the VII agency, Ron Haviv was a freelance photographer working for a small independent photo agency in New York called Saba. It was during this pre-digital age that Haviv did some of his best and most impactful work. Often the first person to see what was on that film was his agent Marcel Saba. Today Ron is still photographing, and Marcel Saba is still selling his images, this time through the agency Redux. With veteran photographer Maggie Steber, who has worked with some of the most legendary agents in the last 30 years, including Saba, Marcel and Ron discuss what makes for a great agent/photographer relationship and how the business functions https://player.vimeo.com/video/694312133 4969 2022-03-31T07:24:23+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/the-dj-and-the-war-crimes-using-photography-to-seek-justice-after-the-event/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/vimeo-10401-1.jpg The DJ and the War Crimes - Using Photography to Seek Justice After the Event Ron Haviv’s photographs of the April 1992 killings in Bijelina, Bosnia Herzegovina, symbolized that genocidal conflict and should have been a tool in holding the perpetrators accountable. But 30 years later, many of those who ethnically cleansed the civilian population – combatants who were part of Arkan’s Tigers – still walk free. Indeed, one of them leads a public life in Europe as a club DJ. In the absence of accountability for the massacre in Bijeljina, Rolling Stone partnered with The Starling Lab to help archive and authenticate key records. Rolling Stone published their investigation in a remarkable piece of immersive storytelling. In this event, we speak with Ron Haviv and Adam Rose of Starling Lab, and hear from staff at Rolling Stone, to discuss how this reportage was made, the role of visuals in the investigation, and the significance of open-source technologies to the verification of war crimes and the pursuit of justice. https://player.vimeo.com/video/859130147 3671 2026-03-03T15:51:41-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/the-elephant-in-the-living-room-a-frank-discussion-about-ethics-collaborations-for-cause-2012/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-9512.jpg The Elephant in the Living Room: A Frank Discussion About Ethics - Collaborations for Cause 2012 When you’re paid to tell a visual documentary by an entity other than a trusted brand in the media, what are the guidelines regarding standard journalistic ethos regarding objectivity, bias, transparency. In an age where everyone is the media, and the media is increasingly guided by the same corporate mentality as major multinational corporations, who is the holder of the truth? Are we better off, or worse, than the times in which the news was domain of just a few broadcasters and publishers? In this discussion, veteran producers of traditional as well as “solutions-based” journalism will share their insights into telling fair and balanced storytelling on a client’s payroll. Kevin Sparkman is the vice president and co-founder of Fusionspark Media in Medford, NJ, where his responsibilities include strategic planning, executive production, and business development. Scott Anger is the creative director and founder of Pandau. For more than 25 years, Scott has worked as a journalist, photographer and award-winning documentary filmmaker.

Born and raised in India, Priyanca then went to fashion school in London and moved to NYC in 2012. She can be found practicing street photography in New York City and chasing down psychological documentary stories that show a unique perspective on human life.

"Mangalore, my hometown in the west coast of India is ripe with vibrant fishing villages and the smell of fish. My eyes were immediately drawn to a smile that is authentic, and contagious. Her name is Rekha and her energy is undeniable. She works long hours at a male dominated fish market under the scorching sun. Everything from her optimism to her colorful skirts set her apart. She walks slowly with a polio limp, but this does not stop her from working. After Rekha returns to her slum, she washes out of a bucket, changes her clothes, brushes her hair and displays her femininity. She grew up an orphan and doesn’t know her age as there are no record of her birth. Despite what she has overcome in her life, she is resilient and cares for the others in her community. Rekha inspires me to be more grateful for what I have and to brighten the lives of others. The goldfish signifies that you are called to help others, that change is always happening, and you must learn to go with the flow." https://player.vimeo.com/video/864071316 1007 2026-03-03T15:51:28-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/the-healing-power-of-photos/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-9274.jpg The Healing Power of Photos At PhotoWings, we are passionate about the power of photography and the many ways it can enrich our lives. In this video, president and founder of PhotoWings Suzie Katz tells us a personal story of how photography was a great help to her, her husband, their friends and family during his challenging illness. She shares how she used old photographs to create a series of Memory Boards -- collections of pictures from her husband's life -- to help him in his battle to fight harder, help conversations with visitors flow easier by giving them comfortable things to talk about, and to humanize him to the doctors, nurses, and hospital staff. Memory Boards are tools which can be utilized in both happy and difficult times for a wide variety of situations, and, in this instance, are a great example of how photography can intersect with the growing field of Medical Humanities. https://player.vimeo.com/video/127888735 176 2015-05-15T00:45:53+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/the-importance-and-how-tos-of-archiving-work-and-legacy/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-8905.jpg The Importance and How To’s of Archiving Work and Legacy Featuring: Julie Grahame (Moderator), Mary Engel, Suzie Katz In today’s fast-paced, digital world it’s so easy to put images into a folder and collect hundreds of hard drives.

He will provide an important snapshot of where we are today, why everything we’ve always known about communications has changed, and why it will never be the same. Simply put, new media outlets for storytelling are going to be increasingly corporate, including non-profits, NGOs, and government agencies. For NPOs, they need to understand their emerging roles, responsibilities and obligations. For the content creators, they have to accept that traditional media such the New York Times are not the only media outlets, and have to learn to deal with the fact that their documentary storytelling is going to be increasingly funded, owned and distributed by non-traditional “media.” Out of this disruption in the media landscape, there has emerged opportunities that exist at the intersection of two accepted communications strategies: Cause Marketing and Content Marketing. In the former, Corporate Social Responsibility aligns a corporate brand with a non-profit to raise awareness of a cause. In the latter, audiences are engaged through compelling, relevant and educational content created for the purposes of marketing. Where the two meet is the “new frontier” of documentary storytelling. Russell is a co-founder of Fusionspark Media, Inc., a communications firm established in 1999. He holds an undergraduate degree in Political Science from Northeastern University, in Boston, and has worked most of his professional life as a photographer and visual communications expert. Collaborations for Cause, hosted May 4th & 5th 2012 by the Blue Earth Alliance, was a retreat for communications professionals who want and need to use emerging new media outlets to build strong, lasting bridges among creative multimedia storytellers, non-profits, socially responsible corporations and supporting communities.

Through recontextualizing visual media and advertisements, he asks that viewer to acknowledge their own biases or learned truths. Popular culture and imagery are crucial to everyday understandings of the World around us. By taking this approach, Winters is able to create associations and assemblages that comment on the medium of photography. Isaiah received his BA in Sociology and MFA from Parsons School of Design in 2022. He is also an Air Force veteran with a background in linguistics and analytics. Winters has exhibited at Rotterdam Photo Festival, Parsons School of Design, Lincoln Center, Pingyao International Photo Festival and Photoville NYC. His work has also been featured in The New York Times, Google, Baltimore Magazine, Lincoln Center/SNFCC, Parks Project and BmoreArt. "This Land Is Your Land is a multimedia project that explores the history of the U.S. National Park system and the lands upon which they have been created. The work is an examination of recreation upon and the seizure of ancestral Indigenous lands from the perspective of a Black veteran. In search of healing and contemplation from his time in the U.S. Air Force and a traumatizing close-call from a fellow wingman, Winters began visiting Glacier National Park in northern Montana in hopes of escape. He answered the call to the wild that many naturalists, artists, and writers have answered before him, but beyond the alluring landscapes and solitude that were promised, Winters found that the influences of imperialism and the fetishization of the American outdoors were not unlike those he encountered during his time in service. TLIYL encourages viewers to parse through contrasting materials that paint this area of northern Montana as both intrinsically “American” and intrinsically stolen and Indigenous. Viewers are encouraged to reconcile their own ideas and emotions regarding American mysticism... https://player.vimeo.com/video/864071180 1232 2026-03-03T15:51:31-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/thomas-patterson-what-i-look-for-when-i-hire-a-photographer-collaborations-for-cause-2017/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-9070.jpg Thomas Patterson – What I Look For When I Hire A Photographer | Collaborations for Cause 2017 Thomas Patterson is a photo editor and content specialist for the international humanitarian organization Mercy Corps.

What would a comprehensive and inclusive ethical agenda include? How should these topics be addressed? In this event, Savannah Dodd, the founder of the Photography Ethics Centre, is in conversation with David Campbell. This conversation starts to set out the landscape of ethics. Rather than give answers, it will focus on the critical ethos necessary for an ethical discussion. This conversation will be the first of a discussion series to be held throughout the next year that will delve deeper into the agenda as it takes shape. https://player.vimeo.com/video/663511757 4296 2022-01-07T23:34:53+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/traci-bartlow-tales-of-a-90s-girl-night-of-photojournalism-2025-san-francisco/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/vimeo-10807-1.jpg Traci Bartlow: Tales of a '90s Girl - Night of Photojournalism 2025 - San Francisco Oakland-based artist, photographer, and cultural archivist Traci Bartlow shares a vivid time capsule of hip hop and Bay Area life in the 1990s.

Over six months, they traveled to seven provinces to document the effects of Taliban rule on women and girls, capturing stories of those denied basic rights, including access to education, work, and public spaces. Through photography, video, and collaborative art with Afghan teenage girls, Kiana and Mélissa reveal both the deep oppression and the resilience of Afghan women. Their discussion will explore the challenges of documenting these realities and the broader impact on women’s rights under oppressive regimes. https://player.vimeo.com/video/1045799433 2318 2026-03-03T15:49:32-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/triumph-defeat-in-washington-d-c-capturing-the-inauguration-peoples-march/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/vimeo-10199-1.jpg Triumph & Defeat in Washington D.C - Capturing the Inauguration & People’s March As part of the growing relationship between The VII Foundation and Apple Inc., contributing photographer to the foundation Ed Kashi was commissioned to use Apple’s Vision Pro goggles to capture ‘spatial’ stills and videos of President Trump’s inauguration and the lead-up to a counterprotest, the People’s March, the following day. Alongside his wife and collaborator, Julie Winokur, the couple captured these two polarized events in the cold, snowy days of late January 2025 in Washington, DC. Having covered Trump’s first inauguration in 2016 and the ‘Women’s March’ that took place the following day, the contrast between the two presidential eras was great. In 2016, the crowd was much smaller, and the weather was less foreboding, while the Women’s March was vast. This time, the Trump crowd was triumphant, even in terrible weather conditions, appearing to reflect the cult-like following he had developed. The People’s March was anemic by comparison and evoked a sense of defeat and exhaustion in those who oppose Trump. Join us for this live discussion as we examine the coverage of these significant events and the technologies employed. https://player.vimeo.com/video/1083959337 3839 2026-03-03T15:49:06-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/truth-and-power-local-visual-journalism-and-public-accountability-harika-maddala-x-sarahbeth-maney-catchlight-2023/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/vimeo-10425-1.jpg Truth and Power: Local Visual Journalism and Public Accountability | Harika Maddala X Sarahbeth Mane Trust in public institutions remains at historic lows, and confidence in mass media continues in a downward trend.

To document the hardships, as both a lament and a tribute, Ashley Gilbertson spent 8 months photographing how the pandemic economy ruptured New York, witnessing stark examples of widening inequality, the changing ways of work and commerce, and ultimately tears in the fabric of the place—even amid growing signs of hope for immunity and recovery. In this discussion, Ashley discusses the project with the editor of the project with whom he worked, Renee Melides. The duo discusses their year of COVID-19 coverage in New York City, the genesis of the project, the complex production of a months-long story from initial pitch to publication, and the importance of collaboration. Ashley and Renee also look at many images from the series, and give insight to the stories behind the pictures. Renee Melides is a Photo Editor at The New York Times and is currently based in New York. Renee also worked for The Times in both their London and Hong Kong bureaus.

In conversation with VII Photo Agency Mentor Program photographer Leonardo Carrato, Salgado talks about the challenges involved in multi-national and global long-term projects, and the importance of photography as a powerful tool for change, citing real-world examples where it has made a difference. Sebastião Salgado was born in Aimorés, Minas Gerais, Brazil and now lives in Paris. A trained economist, he began his career as a photographer in Paris in 1973. He worked successively with the agencies Sygma, Gamma and Magnum Photos until 1994 when, together with Lélia Wanick Salgado, they founded the photographic press agency, Amazonas images, exclusively devoted to their work. Salgado has travelled to more than 100 countries for photographic projects that, in addition to countless publications in the press, were published as books, with conception and design by Lélia Wanick Salgado. These titles include Other Americas (1986), Sahel, l’Homme en détresse (1986), Workers (1993), Earth (1997), Exodus and Portraits of Children of the Exodus (2000), Africa (2007), and Genesis (2013). In 2015, he published the book Perfume de Sonho, a trip to the world of coffee. The book Da minha terra à Terra (2014) tells the origins of his work. His most recent books include Kuwait, A Desert on Fire (2016), in 2019, Gold, Serra Pelada Gold Mine. Traveling exhibitions of these works have been and continue to be presented internationally. The vast majority of these exhibitions were curated by Lélia Wanick Salgado. Sebastião Salgado has also received numerous awards for his photography.

This often means that any human element is avoided. I realized that I shouldn’t leave us out of the equation while telling these stories.” Dutch photographer Jasper Doest explores the relationship between people and the natural world in his work. With a background in ecology, he focuses on conservation issues and the ways in which photography can raise awareness about environmental challenges. His images highlight both the beauty and fragility of our planet, showing how human activity shapes the landscapes and wildlife around us. A regular contributor to National Geographic and a Senior Fellow of the International League of Conservation Photographers, Jasper believes in the power of photography to drive positive change. In this event—hosted by The VII Foundation contributing photographer Ilvy Njiokiktjien—Jasper will discuss his approach to photography and the role of photojournalism in addressing environmental issues. Join us for a presentation on February 20 at 12:00 EST / 18:00 CET. Jasper’s talk will be followed by a Q&A session. A recording of the conversation will be available in our Video Collection shortly after the event. https://player.vimeo.com/video/1070149531 4346 2026-03-03T15:49:15-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/visual-storytelling-techniques-with-acacia-johnson/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/vimeo-10209-1.jpg Visual Storytelling Techniques with Acacia Johnson There’s a difference between documenting a topic and telling a story. In a world with abundant imagery, standing out as a photographer requires more than great pictures. Visual storytelling can turn single photographs into compelling narratives that reach broad audiences. But how do you create a story that truly resonates? Join award-winning photographer Acacia Johnson for an insightful webinar on visual storytelling techniques. A 2023 National Geographic Explorer, TEDx speaker, and ICP Infinity Awards winner, Acacia will share a behind-the-scenes look at her process on assignments—from developing an idea to structuring a complete photo story. Learning how to think about pictures as stories can take your photo career to the next level, opening up a world of opportunities like publications, exhibitions, commissions, and more. Join us for her presentation on February 27 at 17:00 EST, followed by a Q&A session. https://player.vimeo.com/video/1070150400 4321 2026-03-03T15:49:14-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/visualizing-the-climate-crisis-the-fashion-system/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/vimeo-10393-1.jpg Visualizing the Climate Crisis - The Fashion System “Calculating, industrial society is obliged to form consumers who don’t calculate; if clothing’s producers and consumers had the same consciousness, clothing would be bought (and produced) only at the very slow rate of its dilapidation” – Roland Barthes, The Fashion System, 1983. The United Nations reports the fashion industry is the second most polluting of all industries, resulting in 8% of all carbon emissions and 20% of all global wastewater. The system is also responsible for perpetuating an economic paradigm leading to social and climate injustice at the cost of poorer workers, animals, and the planet. Who could lead the systemic changes that the fashion industry requires in order to go beyond “greenwashing” and be more sustainable? How could we–media, policymakers, artists, activists, designers, institutions, and educators–help re-wire a system that is so interconnected and unjust? What could be the best way to talk to people and change the fashion system? This is the third talk of the series, Visualizing the Climate Crisis, which explores the potential and the role that contemporary photography, together with different disciplines, can have in addressing the multi-layered theme of climate change. The series features visual journalists doing evidence-based, research-informed, image-led reporting on climate issues. They will be in conversation with other professionals representing a diverse range of disciplines, such as science, policy-making, education, architecture, social innovation, media, and more, trying to explore the possibility of thinking beyond photography in a genuinely trans-disciplinary approach to expand reach, involve the wider public, and move people from being inspired to taking action. In this event, Rebecca Cappelli (filmmaker and activist) and Sara Sozzani Maino (Creative Director and educator) are in conversation with Maria Teresa Salvati.

The series will feature visual journalists doing evidence-based, research-informed, image-led reporting on climate issues.

This event features Uwe H. Martin and Dr. Francesca Greco in conversation with Maria Teresa Salvati, moderated by Dr. Paul Lowe. Virtual water–also known as embodied or hidden water–is a term coined by John Anthony Allan in 1993. The concept refers to the quantity of freshwater used in the products, services, and processes people buy and use daily. Virtual water often goes unseen by the end-user of a product or service, but that water has been consumed throughout the value chain, which makes the creation of that product or service possible. The concept of virtual water trade was introduced to refer to the idea that countries can save domestic water by importing food. How can ‘virtual water’ be visualized? Can visual storytellers and scientists collaborate to communicate the whole story to the wide public? How could we make people aware of their eating and buying habits, be conscious of their choices, and eventually reduce their footprint on the planet? https://player.vimeo.com/video/859114414 4040 2026-03-03T15:51:44-08:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/visualizing-the-climate-crisis-representing-ocean-acidification/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/vimeo-10413-1.jpg Visualizing the Climate Crisis Representing Ocean Acidification In the visualization of the climate crisis, how can ocean acidification be represented? Ocean acidification is a change to the ocean’s chemistry produced by rising levels of carbon dioxide (CO2). The ocean absorbs about 30 percent of the CO2 that human activity releases into the atmosphere, and as levels of atmospheric CO2 increase, so do the levels in the ocean. When CO2 is absorbed by seawater, a series of chemical reactions occur that damage structures such as sea shells and coral skeletons. This harms calcifying organisms such as oysters, clams, sea urchins, shallow-water corals, deep-sea corals, and calcareous plankton. When these organisms are at risk, the entire food web may also be at risk. How can this phenomenon be visualized? How can visual storytellers work with scientists and develop a narrative that shows the problem and points the way toward solutions? What messages can have a tangible impact on a local and global level? How can we communicate the connection between issues in the Atlantic Ocean, the corals in the Philippines? and life and habits in Europe? To address these issues, Katherine Jack (photographer) and Octavio Aburto (research scientist) will be in conversation with Maria Teresa Salvati (founder and director of Everything is Connected). The talk will be moderated by Paul Lowe (Reader in Documentary Photography at UAL, London). This event is the first in a new series, Visualizing the Climate Crisis, which explores the potential and the role that contemporary photography, together with different disciplines, can have in addressing the multi-layered theme of climate change.

Climate change is driving extreme weather events and their consequences, leading to a rise in the number of climate refugees. In the worst-case scenario, 1.2 billion people could be displaced by 2050 due to natural disasters and other ecological threats, according to The Institute for Economics and Peace. National and international responses to this challenge remain limited, and protection for those affected is inadequate, despite some steps in the right direction. Most importantly, there is no clear definition of a climate refugee, nor are climate refugees covered by the 1951 Refugee Convention. This means that climate cannot currently be cited as a reason for seeking asylum or refugee status. How can climate migration be visualized? How can we shift perception about this phenomenon? Can visual stories and data visualization work together to tell the whole story to the public?

Forests are lost to make space for agriculture and animal grazing and to obtain wood for fuel, manufacturing, and construction. Greatly accelerated by human activities since 1960, deforestation has been negatively affecting natural ecosystems, biodiversity, and the climate. The UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization estimates the annual rate of deforestation to be around 1.3 million km2 per decade. How can ‘deforestation’ be visualized? Can visual storytellers, social innovators, and artistic directors work together to tell the whole story and the connectedness of all, to the wide public? How can we make people aware that their living and cultural habits have an impact on the forests, and consequently the loss of biodiversity? How do we show the impact of deforestation on the climate, which has side effects on our lives too?

How can contemporary photography use its visual power to create stories that trigger empathy, closeness and connectedness, and inspire people to act? The Anthropocene has radically and dangerously changed the relationship between humans and nature. This is forcing us to review the way we live our lives, and redress the negative impacts. Everyone is asked to do their bit in order to reduce their planetary footprint and live a more sustainable life. How can contemporary photography have an important role in defining, inspiring and touching people’s emotions towards this goal? Are we asking too much of photographers, or do they have a responsibility in environmental storytelling?

The integration of these different groups is necessary to act as buffers between the public and scientific data and to encourage a richer and more complex conversation about the fundamental issues driving the climate and environmental crises and how to use the powerful impact of contemporary art and photography. In this context, trans-disciplinarity, which integrates the natural, social and health sciences in a humanities context that transcends the traditional boundaries of discipline, is the path to follow. Trans-disciplinarity involves the integration of knowledge and the abandonment of binary thinking, so we can help construct deeper meanings in the context of real-world problems. For example, when dealing with environmental issues, we know we need to refer to a complexity that embraces a world of injustice and inequality, both in the causes and the consequences of the problems. How can contemporary photography and art raise their ambition to make real changes in the world? What artistic, human, or scientific approach does trans-disciplinary work require artists to put in place? How do they maintain their personal vision when they deal with scientific data?

Iooss is interviewed by Steve Fine, the Photo Editor at Flipboard, where he contributes curatorial direction for The Shot. Steve Fine, Sports Illustrated magazine’s director of photography, refers to Walter Iooss as the foremost sports photographer of his generation and a "fixture in American journalism." Iooss' work is characterized by a dynamic perspective and a notable reverence for light. From his multi-year project on Olympic athletes up to and during the 1984 games to his iconic portraiture of athletes such as Michael Jordan to his 300-plus covers for Sports Illustrated, Iooss’ work is renowned worldwide. His celebrated publications include Hoops: Four Decades of the Pro Game (2005), Classic Baseball: The Photographs of Walter Iooss, Jr. (2003), Walter Iooss: A Lifetime Shooting Sports & Beauty (1999). Walter’s passion recalls the words of his gifted predecessor, Henri Cartier-Bresson: "To take photographs is to hold one’s breath when all faculties converge in the face of fleeing reality…it is putting one’s head, one’s eye, and one’s heart on the same axis." "The real joy of photography is in these moments," says Iooss. "I’m always looking for freedom, the search for the one-on-one. That’s when your instincts come out. I’ve been lucky enough to have people hire me to do that...It’s the discovery. It’s still magic." https://player.vimeo.com/video/159244887 2689 2016-03-16T17:48:19+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/war-and-sexual-identity-ilvy-njiokiktjiens-report-on-the-lgbtqi-community-in-lviv-ukraine/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-8583.jpg War and Sexual Identity: Ilvy Njiokiktjien’s Report on the LGBTQI Community in Lviv, Ukraine Ten million Ukrainians have been displaced by the Russian invasion – 6.5 million people are internally displaced, and 3.5 million have fled the country becoming refugees in the process. Amongst those displaced are members of Ukraine’s LGBTQI community, who are thought to be among the designated targets of a Russian campaign to oppress sectors of the community, and names of LGBTQI activists have apparently appeared on Russian kill lists. Ilvy Njiokiktjien went to Lviv on 11 March to cover everyday life in the city (listen to her audio dispatch from Lviv for more details) and while there she started work on a personal project to document the LGBTQI community in Lviv as they cope with the consequences of the Russian invasion. In this event, Ilvy will present the first images from her project and what she hopes to achieve with the story – one that documents both the love stories and the atrocities, as well as the community’s dreams for the future, and what that future might be if Russia succeeds in its brutal campaign. https://player.vimeo.com/video/751576158 3377 2022-09-20T08:40:01+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no

are made possible in partnership with PhotoWIngs with additional support by the Philip and Edith Leonian Foundation In 1966, the late Gordon Parks described his camera as a “weapon” against racism, poverty, and injustice. Over 50 years later, photographers and writers Ruddy Roye and Travon Free discuss how and why their cameras are not only an important weapon in modern storytelling, but by demonstrating their work, they will explain why it’s critical to the landscape of photography for black and marginalized people to be the ones telling these stories. https://player.vimeo.com/video/498247507 4599 2026-05-13T11:22:05-07:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/while-the-fires-burn-a-glacier-odyssey-with-daniel-schwartz-part-i/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-8641.jpg While the Fires Burn A Glacier Odyssey with Daniel Schwartz — Part I This series of three webinars with Daniel Schwartz sheds light on the origins and metamorphoses, on the making-of, and the intellectual context of this climate crises-driven project accomplished between 2009 and 2017. The series is moderated by Ziyah Gafic. For While the Fires Burn. A Glacier Odyssey the author embarked on a journey that led from the relics of Holocene glaciation in Switzerland and the Alps into the milieu of the Anthropocene, to collapsing glaciers on three continents. The outcome, a “glaciology in pictures,” as it were, is the result of a synthesis of scientific observation and artistic action. The environmental context makes the project the counterpart and continuation of Delta. The Perils, Profits and Politics of Water in South and Southeast Asia (1997), one of the earliest comprehensive photojournalistic studies on the climate crisis. While the Fires Burn. A Glacier Odyssey was realized partly in collaboration with institutes of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH Zürich) and of the University of Bern, published in 2017 by Thames & Hudson and exhibited in 2018 at the Bündner Kunstmuseum, Chur, Switzerland. Part I. From Delta to Glacier The initial webinar will introduce approaches and strategies—photojournalistic, conceptual and science-supported—and discuss the reasons for merging terrestrial and aerial photography. Together, these practices have found very diverse applications during the past thirty years—at first documenting the densely populated coastal habitats in Asia increasingly endangered by sea-level rise as a consequence of the climate crisis, then, more recent, representing the accelerated agony of Alpine and Equatorial glaciers as well as of West Asian glaciers where, in the early 19th century, mountaineering and world politics had met and where conflict and glacial melt today simultaneously occur, with the risk of looming war for resources. https://player.vimeo.com/video/694322342 4014 2022-03-31T08:05:23+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/while-the-fires-burn-a-glacier-odyssey-with-daniel-schwartz-part-ii/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-8639.jpg While the Fires Burn A Glacier Odyssey with Daniel Schwartz — Part II This series of three webinars with Daniel Schwartz sheds light on the origins and metamorphoses, on the making-of, and the intellectual context of this climate crises-driven project accomplished between 2009 and 2017.

Inquiries Concerning the Memory and Domestication of Glaciers Being a visual manifesto aimed at structural change in the way humanity deals with the climate crisis, the concluding webinar will discuss methods applied during the realization of While the Fires Burn. A Glacier Odyssey. These include the melding of the autobiographical and the socio-political, archival and archaeological research as artist practice, appropriation of historical documents in storytelling as well as the typographic word-work paired with photographs to extend their meaning. The experiential of the project echoes processes that accompanied the understanding and moral perception of glacier landscapes since they became object of study in the late 18th century. https://player.vimeo.com/video/694340536 3069 2022-03-31T09:08:18+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/whitney-johnson-on-storytelling/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/vimeo-9084.jpg Whitney Johnson on Storytelling A 3-minute video featuring Whitney Johnson, from the PhotoWings Media Archive. https://player.vimeo.com/video/215588564 179 2017-05-02T00:14:59+00:00 yes no PhotoWings no https://photowings.org/archive/working-together/ https://photowings.org/wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/vimeo-10913.jpg Working Together Working Together Presented by Women Photograph Featuring Cinthya Santos Briones, Jasmin Chang, Gabriella Demczuk, Hannah Price, and Karen Miranda Rivadeneira Photoville 2019 Talks On-demand recordings are made possible in partnership with PhotoWIngs with additional support by the Philip and Edith Leonian Foundation Cinthya Santos Briones, Jasmin Chang, Gabriella Demczuk, Hannah Price, and Karen Miranda Rivadeneira are five photographers who have often woven the vision and voices of others into their projects, by collaborating with those they photograph, working with archival materials, teaming up with other artists, and fundamentally engaging communities in telling their own stories.

Tom Costanza spent the sixteen years as television news photographer at stations from Scranton to Seattle covering everything from presidential inaugurations and shuttle launches to earthquakes, hurricanes, and house fires. TV news helped him develop resourcefulness, compassion, and solid storytelling skills. When the opportunity to work at World Vision presented itself, Tom was able to use storytelling for a cause. Since joining World Vision in July 2001, Tom has spent a good part of the last sixteen years on the road capturing stories, spending three weeks traveling around the world to cover the Asia tsunami and in 2010, the earthquake in Haiti. He’s reported on child soldiers in Uganda, street children in Mexico, AIDS in India, and hunger in the Horn of Africa. Fortunately, the many heart-rending moments have been balanced by witnessing the joy, faith, and resilience of the world’s extraordinary people, his camera reflecting their light in some of the world’s darkest places. Phil Manzano is the director of Content Development in the Brand & Campaigns division of World Vision US. Currently, he oversees a team of writers and photographers, publications and promotional content. Prior to World Vision, he worked at The Oregonian in Portland, Ore. for more than 25 years as a writer and editor. He lives in the Rainier Valley area of South Seattle, and, on sunny days, can be found biking along Lake Washington.

It focuses intensely on individuals and their families who fought for justice, democracy, and Ukraine’s continued independence. This ongoing documentation, which he began in 2014, reveals what are likely the most vulnerable and painful moments in the lives of these men and women. A central objective of this project is to give Ukrainians an unvarnished perspective of how those wounded in war heal over time. This can guide and comfort those confronted with similar situations.
