Mentoring Portfolio Review

For over a decade, I’ve helped photographers develop stronger projects and
make their work travel further. I’ve reviewed portfolios and given talks at
festivals and institutions across Europe, including Les Rencontres d’Arles
(2018–2025), Sarajevo Photography Festival, the World Biennale of Student
Photography (Novi Sad), Officine Fotografiche Roma, Plovdiv Photo Days, and
several photography schools and programmes.

As someone who’s been both on the panel and behind the scenes, I know what
reviewers look for, and how to help you stand out.

If you’re after real feedback, honest questions, and concrete steps forward (not
sweet talk from your mum or partner), I’m here.
30 min – €40
60 min – €70
For ongoing projects 3 sessions of 60 min each €180
Online or in person (when possible).

Is this for you?
You’ve got a project (or a pile of pictures becoming one). Maybe you feel stuck or
you want to know if the idea holds up. Maybe you need to choose an edit,
get direction, or just hear from someone outside your circle. Let’s talk.
What we can cover (pick what you need):

Your motivation: Why this work? What are you trying to say? Who is it for?
Materials on the table: what you’ve got, what’s strong, what’s not helping,
what’s missing.
Next steps: what still needs to be shot, researched, written, or edited.
Pathways: festivals, reviewers, magazines, residencies, grants — where
and how to approach.
Formats: exhibition, photobook, zine, multimedia, online series, something
hybrid.
Funding leads: where to start looking for support (public calls, cultural
funds, small grants, partnerships).
Possible visibility: when relevant, I can keep your project in mind for
Belgrade Photo Month, BPM Book Week, or features through Бартcелона
koncept. (No promises — but I do scout!)
