Photographing Your Work with Chuck Allen
Wednesday, May 22 | 6:30 – 8:30 pm | In Person
Clear. Crisp. Well-lit. Detailed. Accurate colour. All of these adjectives can describe a solid photo of creative products and artwork. Can you describe your photos this way?
Getting the perfect shot of your pieces is crucial for advertising on your social media, website and online shop. A well-taken and visually informative product photo can be the difference between making a sale or losing a potential customer. Drawing the viewer in and giving them the opportunity to admire your skill and workmanship allows you to show off your creative pieces to their best advantage!
On May 22nd, Chuck Allen from Earth + Hide will be here to guide you with some tips and tricks to capture your work. Bring your phone or camera and get ready to learn in this hands-on workshop at Creative Manitoba!
Chuck Allen is the founder and craftsman behind Earth and Hide, a lifestyle brand that focuses on quality craft work including high quality leather goods with a timeless, rugged simplicity as well as pottery.
Prior to starting the Earth and Hide brand, Chuck was a video producer for the US department of the Navy and before that was a combat cameraman in the US Marines.
Chuck began his post secondary education with a degree in graphic design where he fell in love with photography. Chuck has a passion for authentic storytelling which is a big part of making compelling images.
