Discovering the Next Generation of Photojournalists at World Press Photo’s Masterclass

“My selection in the first Joop Swart Masterclass came with excitement and total pride in having been honored with a place in such a renowned international workshop. I remember it being one of my first big breaks ever as a photographer. The inspiration and knowledge gained from both masters and students was unrivaled. It’s still a highlight in my life and I have great memories of the experience. Some of the students and masters of that class have become close friends as well. Very special indeed!”
