Photographing your work with confidence

Loam Marketing will kick off our 2025 Workshopping With season with a special two-hour workshop on taking successful exhibition and promotional images. If you're looking to improve your photography or need guidance on editing photos to meet application specifications, this workshop is not to be missed.

In this interactive presentation Brady will guide participants through a series of example photos, helping them identify what works and what doesn't. The session will include live photo editing, advice on lighting, and best practices for building your own setup. Attendees will leave with a strategy to optimize their photography setup and a checklist of helpful resources. Can't make it to the live class?
