In this new photography workshop, you will learn to take portraits like a professional photographer, working on a series of images about the people of Beijing.


In this workshop, Sean Gallagher will personally help you and guide you to create your own powerful portraits, drawing upon his experiences producing imagery for National Geographic, TIME and Smithsonian Magazine.


We will explore the fascinating Moshikou cultural street and Fahai Temple, making images of the unique people of this area. Sean will show you not only how to make individual images, but also reveal to you how you can make series of portraits that tell a story.


Many people struggle with making portraits of people. You may feel unsure how to approach people, you may be unsure how to frame the image, or even interact with subjects as you take their photo.


This workshop is aimed at amateur photographers who are ready to go beyond taking snapshots. Let Sean show you the true power of photography through learning the art of environmental portraits and photographic storytelling!


Limited to 8 students only. More information can be found here about this workshops and Sean's previous workshops in China: https://gallagher-photo.com/faces-of-beijing-portrait-workshop-november-2025/
