About Michelle Loukidis

Her keen interests in photographic development led her to education where she has trained and mentored young photographers from all over Africa for over 20 years in her capacity as a senior trainer at the Market Photo Workshop. In 2018 she founded a photographic school, Through The Lens Collective in Johannesburg and recently co-founded an African based photography magazine, Tombe.
