Join pro photographer and digital artist Michelle Kennedy @michellekennedy.sonyadvocate, and star cosplayer @soylentcosplay for a unique two-part studio photography and photo editing journey inspired by one of PlayStation's most recognizable heroes.

This event (workshop 1) is a hands-on experience that puts participants behind the lens to photograph Aloy, the determined hunter from Sony's acclaimed Horizon series.
