CAMERAsations

On Sunday, April 12th, nearly 20 Black and Brown photographers from New Jersey and Philadelphia attended a deep-dive session on the importance of using their artistic voices authentically. We discussed best business practices, life/work management, various paths in photo education, approaching galleries/museums, and much more!

I am always honored to provide platforms for folk to share their dreams and to find ways to overcome obstacles. We are all looking forward to what germinates from this gathering…
