Complementing the exhibition Meryl McMaster: Bloodline at the McMichael Canadian Art Collection, in this one-day workshop, professional photographer Ron Clifford will lead participants on a visual journey to decipher what makes an image powerful and what gives a portrait meaning. Learn the techniques for telling an effective visual story while exploring camera techniques, lighting, and location as tools to reveal character and create a legacy for those we capture, including ourselves.

Space is limited; registration required. Check mcmichael.com/upcoming-events for updates.
