SUMMARY:Preparing for Portfolio Reviews | NEPR (ONLINE)
DESCRIPTION:Join our Executive Director Crista Dix for a focused session on how to
  approach portfolio reviews with clarity\, intention\, and confidence
  at the year's New England Portfolio Reviews. 
 
 PORTFOLIOPREP 
 
 Designed for photographers at all stages\, this program breaks down
  what reviewers look for\, how to shape a cohesive edit\, and how to
  speak about your work in a way that resonates. 
 
 Through practical guidance and real-world insight\, Dix will address
  common pitfalls\, strategies for sequencing and presentation\, and how
  to align your portfolio with your goals--whether curatorial\,
  editorial\, or commercial. Participants will leave with a stronger
  understanding of how to frame their practice\, refine their
  narrative\, and make the most of every review opportunity.
