The Power of the Personal: Live Portfolio Reviews with Katherine Leonard

Recorded: Thursday, August 27th, at 7 pm ET

This pandemic time is the perfect time to develop a deeply personal body of work. But editing your own work can be very difficult.

When you take a deep dive into your own alchemical experience, you are immersed in the journey. When you come up for air, It can be useful to have a trusted set of eyes to help make sense of it all, or a trusted guide to help you navigate the editing process.

Katherine Leonard took a turn at editing and reviewing the work of two photographers, Monika Merva and Rita Kovtun, who volunteered to share their work during a live portfolio review. Katherine generously shared her review process along with the thoughtful questions she asks photographers to get to the heart of the matter. Together we explored how to deepen the intuitive skills needed to make determinations about the value of our images within the context of larger body of work.
