Group Sessions Surprise guests. Online group community meetings. Well known photographers, photo editors or book designers. David does not make specific guest promises he cannot keep, yet every workshop he has done so far has had these pro jams. Invaluable.

A Printed Zine This is a doable goal. David makes his own zines as precursors to his personal book production and sees this process as an invaluable step forward for you. A concise edit of your work taken to print and created wholly over the course of several months. This will be one of the highlights of our time together and a permanent marker for you. Will it lead to a book? For some it has. For sure a possibility, yet David is not going to approve a book for you unless you have seriously made the work to hit the artistic high water mark. Honest evaluation is the promise. If you do make the work ready for a book, David will be the first give you a high five!

“Nothing can beat a long term mentorship program when you are looking for practical results. In my in-person workshops, I can get people started. With six months I can actually get you to finish something significant—something of value. A life changer.

I found it exceptionally rewarding and productive. The reality is that many are not in a position to travel to one of my in-person workshops for any number of reasons. Scheduling, jobs, school, family, and travel expense. 

The online mentoring not only solves a lot of those problems but also has students all over the world shooting a wide variety of stories. I tell everyone anyway, if you can’t shoot in your own backyard then you can’t shoot in someone else’s.

Please check out my last mentoring group and you will see exactly what I mean. Read the bios, see the work. Join me if this seems like the right fit for you.”

Comments from previous students:

Within what felt like an instant, David homed in on the areas where I needed the most guidance. He helped me address and push through issues I was not even aware I had. His mentorship has changed not only my photography but how I view my work in the context of my life. I am forever grateful to him for all that I have learned, his time, energy, and the continued interest and support he shows in my work & my progress as a photographer. An opportunity to learn from him is priceless. — Lauren Koplowitz

My experience at David's online class is unforgettable. I never expected to be so constantly encouraged to push my own limits in producing better and better work, till one day, I found myself astonished at what great photographs I was producing. David, besides being a critically acclaimed Magnum photographer, deserves as many accolades for being a great, great teacher. It is rare to see such a combination of skills. He was extremely patient, a very good listener, and in his own way nudged each of us to continuously improve our photography. He embraced whatever individual style each student had, never imposing his own manner of taking photographs on any one. I would definitely recommend that any photographer, whether advanced or intermediate, join David's classes. The take away is phenomenal and will stay embedded in one's photography for a lifetime. — SHOBA JOLLY

I was not really sure what I signed up for and being very critical and somewhat tired of recent in-person workshops I did, I thought I'd give this online mentorship program a chance. Little did I know that the impact of this mentorship program was going to be so huge. David pushed me out of my comfortable street photography bubble into an area of self portraiture that I never thought to explore before joining this program. I always believed D workshops were there to improve your photography skills - but these months taught me so much more, I became interested in reading more about Photography, buying many new books, following more Instagram profiles, being open minded about work I never understood before and listening to what it actually means to be a Photographer. David is very knowledgeable and very direct, he does not put up with people who don't make an effort or don't work hard so you will be pushed but in a positive lasting way. You learn a lot from your fellow students and the diversity and International aspect of the group is wonderful. If you are interested, give it a go, you will get so much more out of it than you would ever imagine and you can count on it that your project is going to be entirely different from what you thought it would be at the start. — TANJA HOUWERZIJL

I spent 8 months in David’s inner circle mentorship. Without really knowing what to expect I entered the mentorship program the day before it started, it was one of those "Spur of the moment" decisions. It was a tough journey, with all from shooing hundreds of images on a day, to being frustrated and having a complete "writers block" the next month, and at one time, I almost decided "enough is enough, it's not worth it.", but with tough love David keept pushing me i the right direction. Before the Mentorship I had boxed photography in to a technical box, and even though that I thought that I was telling stories and shooting feelings, I am not quite sure that I was, but today I am definitely on the right track. Today I have learned to remove the "filter" between my brain and the camera, which makes it way easier to shoot what I feel, and experience the photograph. It's was a unique opportunity for me, living in Denmark, to be able pick a the brain of a photographer like David, for a longer period of time. I would never have had the same "return", from a one week workshop. If I had to do it all over again, knowing how hard it would be, then I would do it ;) — JAKOB KJOELLER

STUDENT WORK

It was supposed to be a professional investment. I wanted my work to improve. I wanted to become an artist. I wanted to see things differently... With a deeper perspective. I followed him for a very long time. I was inspired by his work and his way of working. I trusted his words every time he said he works from his heart. I tried for a while to hide, though. As always. However he was very determined on his believe that if I wanted to improve my work I should look into the mirror. I had no clue how to do it. I knew it made sense. But how on earth should I do it? His determination (not to say stubbornness) payed off. In a very impactful manner.

I didn't only look into the mirror. I was able to look into my soul, my fears, my darkest side. I was able to make sense of my pain through my work. I was able to pay respect to who I am, what I have faced and how much I have grown. For this I had to turn the camera to myself.

I have no words to show my appreciation for David’s deep commitment, careful eye and  heartfelt feedback. My deepest gratitude. — FERNANDA COTELESSA

Six months. And a bunch of photos. That's what it was supposed to be, at least in my mind. Six months, during which I'd work on a photo project with a group of other students online, from around the world, under the guidance of the one and only David Alan Harvey.

I wanted to photograph the idea of grace, from a Christian perspective. How hard could that be? We sing songs about it, we talk about it. Our world's been changed by it. But there hadn't been too many photos of it, from what I could tell, much less photo essays on it. So off I went.

Well, with David's generosity, six months became more like eight (or nine!) months. Months of ups and downs, of frustration and joy. Of learning so many things, and of absorbing the wisdom and experiences of David, and all the other students.

Now I should say that even with the extra time, and all the help I've gotten, this is not really a complete project. It's changed from being about what grace might look like into the story of grace. And that's a long, rich, wondrous story, far bigger than what I've been able to capture these past months. — JOEY KOH
