WHY MISSOURI PHOTO WORKSHOP?

The Missouri Photo Workshop was, "a defining time for me as a photographer. I will take MPW skills with me for the rest of my life, " said Chad Ziemendorf who photographed MPW61 and joined hundreds of other photographers who say that the Workshop has changed their lives.

MPW has documented small town America for six decades, shaping the working methods of more than 2,000 photographers from around the world. Guided by some of the world's leading photographers and editors, participants are challenged to develop both their researching and visual storytelling skills.

The deadline for application is July 14, 2012. We have some scholarships available.

"When I came back from the Workshop to my job at the Los Angeles Times I felt so energized and confident...I felt like I could find stories anywhere and get the job done, " said Beatrice deGea who photographed MPW56 in 2004.

We hope you will apply for the Workshop this year, or tell a photojournalist who you think would be interested.
