How to apply for a photography commission

Presenter: Carolyn Mendelsohn

Carolyn takes us through her commissioned work process from private commissions through to commercial, editorial and artistic work.

We will look at the process - from call out through to how to respond to them, and what happens if you get the job. What are the steps to creating the work and then delivering the final product?

Carolyn also shares the stories behind the work, why she has made certain decisions and how the final photographs were achieved.
