What a cool assignment for that workshop. That photo from the sinner table gives a nice insight in their lives.
Are the photos behind the link yours as well? Because there are a few really cool ones there with a lot of emotion. I miss that a bit in this series.
The workshop was really something, they broke us up into small groups of 6-7, each with a photo coach and a writing coach. I had a New York Times photo editor, Tanner Curtis, for a photo coach, which was really helpful.
The first link is all the stories the workshop produced (there was also video and photo editing classes too) but the second link "Raising a future" story is mine. The photo coaches selected the photos for our stories out of the 1000 or so shots we took and they're a lot better at that than I am :) There's plenty more with lots of emotion, I was just having trouble narrowing it down to a few for an overview.
