Self-Portraiture as Creative Play: Find Your Voice & Refine Your Craft
Thursday February 27, 2025 8:30am - 10:00am EST
Conference Room 5, Mystic Marriott (Creative Track Classroom)
Self-portraiture is far more than just taking photos of yourself—it’s a powerful tool for self-exploration, storytelling, and refining your craft.

In this interactive session, Brandi Nicole will share her approach to self-portraits, demonstrating the tools she uses, how she sets up her gear, and how she experiments with new techniques. Through a live demonstration and open discussion, attendees will gain insight into posing, composition, lighting, finding their personal style, and the art of visual storytelling.
Whether you’re looking to build confidence in front of the camera, push your creative boundaries, or simply play with photography in a new way, this class will inspire you to turn the lens on yourself with intention and artistry.
