Workshops

Our on-location workshops are small and intimate, which allows us to cater to each participant individually.

We promote a safe and warm learning environment in which photographers of all levels — from professionals to those just starting out — can thrive. No previous photography experience is necessary to join our workshops.

We occasionally also offer online workshops.

ON LOCATION - Morocco street & travel photography workshop

If you decide to go with The Raw Society – be ready. Be ready to learn, to experience, to see, to really open your eyes and your heart – it will reflect on your photos. It’s intense, exciting, fun, exhausting, authentic, something out of the ordinary, hard work and an experience you will not soon forget. And what you learn is something you take with you for the rest of your life. The teachers’ patience is worth a medal and Jorge will quickly take your photography skills to the next level. I cannot recommend these guys enough!

ONLINE - How to build a visual narrative w/ Ed Kashi

I wasn’t entirely sure what I was really looking for from this workshop, I just jumped on the opportunity because I thoroughly enjoy Ed Kashi’s work…and wow he certainly did not disappoint! Incredibly motivating and inspiring talk, a million miles per hour yes but hearing the stories behind some of his photographs just made me realise the depth of his craft and compassion. I’m not ruling out the possibility that I may have a man-crush on Ed. What an incredible human being.”

ONLINE - Small Group Photo Critique w/ Jorge Delgado-Ureña

These Photo Tours are worth every penny spent! Jorge and Christelle are the best teachers and can really help take your photography to the next level! They will push you because they know what you are capable of, as that’s what teachers are meant to do! I will be going on another tour! My photography has never looked so good!”

ON LOCATION - Istanbul Street & Storytelling workshop

As always, The Raw Society did an amazing job on this workshop! My photography improves after every trip with them! They made sure everyone stayed safe and healthy during Covid too. I’ll be going on another tour very soon!”

ONLINE - New approaches to storytelling w/ Maggie Steber

And another Photo Tour with The Raw Society…this time in Cuba, and again, it was fantastic!! All the elements were there, the 7 photonerds, the beautiful and interesting places(loved Trinidad),the interactions with people, and of course, the flawless organization by Christelle, and the priceless insight and support by Jorge. What more could I ask for :)”
