Your Instructor
Kristine Nyborg is a Norwegian photojournalist based out of Ottawa, Canada. She has a BA in Photojournalism, MPhil in Visual Ethnography and teaches photography to anyone who’s willing to partake in a combination of monologues, dialogues and attentive listening. She has been swinging a camera since 1998, and has made a living from it since 2002, making photographs internationally for mainly Norwegian media organisations. She once found herself in a George W. Bush and Karl Rove sandwich in the doorway of Lincoln’s bedroom while on assignment, and can hold serious conversations on worldly topics but prefers to find ways to make herself laugh. Other people laughing is a bonus.
Kristine has taught photography at Capilano University in North Vancouver, BC, and Simon Fraser University in Burnaby, BC. She also blogs about photography for Confluence Magazine, DFP Education Blog and runs a weekly newsletter where she spotlights great photography and offers tips on overcoming obstacles in photography.
