How has photojournalism and press photography changed?

Bowness Photography Prize People’s Choice Award winner (2010) MELANIE FAITH DOVE joins BRUCE POSTLE to compare their experiences of working as professional press photographers for The Age. Well known for creative approaches to their subjects, POSTLE & DOVE will share their behind-the-scenes stories and discuss the changes to the industry over the last 40 years in this presentation.

MAPh acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the land, the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung and Bunurong People, and recognises their continuing connection to the land and waterways.

We pay our respects to their Elders past, present and emerging and extend this to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander People.
