Join us for an exclusive hands-on photography workshop with Australia’s best hospitality photographer, Christopher Pearce, in collaboration with Fontaine, Nikon, and Profoto, hosted by Georges Cameras.

This immersive 4-hour experience will give attendees a real-world look at creating an ad campaign—from concept to final image—working with an actual client, Fontaine Beer. You'll see how Chris crafts a professional shoot, experiment with Nikon cameras and Profoto lighting, and capture stunning visuals. Plus, enjoy a cold Fontaine beer fresh from our taps, featuring the very product you're photographing!

The workshop wraps up with a Q&A session, and for industry professionals looking to connect, there's a bonus social hour (free for community members).

Don't miss this chance to elevate your photography, network with industry pros, and enjoy great beer!
