    WHAT IS A MENTORSHIP?

    SET YOUR GOALS

    You decide what you want to learn and set your goals for the mentorship based on this together with Hans. Maybe you want to strengthen your own image style, immerse yourself in image composition or maybe work with an upcoming exhibition. With Hans’ vast experience you will develop yourself as a photographer no matter on what level you are.
