Speaker – Nell Carroll
Nell Carroll’s presentation will center around stories and advice for photographers wanting to make a living as a photojournalist. Along with sharing her background in photojournalism, we’ll hear her take on editing and what she looks for in a portfolio.
See and hear about Nell’s journey, her experiences along the way, and the work she does currently for The Statesman.
