1-To-1 Mentorship

Deep, personal, sustained support

For those seeking dedicated, one-to-one guidance over a sustained and supportive period of time. This opportunity offers space to explore your practice, project development, and experimentation at a deeper level, with full attention on your unique creative path

These informal sessions are centred on authentic conversation and meaningful exploration, helping you reach inward to uncover new directions, refine your focus, and push your practice forward in ways that feel both personal and powerful

Through collaborative dialogue, idea generation, and Laura’s professional insight into the photographic and wider art community, you will be encouraged and motivated to create, research, and develop with clarity and confidence

“She is a visionary teacher and mentor and a lovely person to share work with.”
Layla Perchal Neal

 

“I attribute my ability to generate ideas and create work in response to them in large part to Laura's approach to the process.”
Sinead le Blond
