Photojournalism Workshops- any one have recommendations?

[dpetrzelka]

I've seen that VII Photo Agency runs some sweet looking VII Workshops, and am wondering if anyone knows of other intensive photo journalism/visual story telling works shops, either in the US or internationally.

Have any of you attended a workshop you can recommend?

Thanks

The Maine Photographic Workshops has some journalism workshops.
http://www.theworkshops.com/photoworkshops/index.asp Click on "View All Workshops:" By Category. The journalism workshops are listed along the bottom.

There is also the Eddie Adams one, http://www.eddieadamsworkshop.com, it's tution free, but is EXTREMELY competitive.

I have been to the Maine Workshops, but I didn't attend a journalism one, and I can HIGHLY recommend The Maine Photographic Workshops. They attract the best photographers from around the world and have been in the business for 34 years now.

Good Luck!
Brian
