Endless Ways to Create.Join us for a full day of photography, education, hands-on experiences, Sony Alpha gear, and community.Sony Alpha Collab brings together professional photographers and creatives for a day exploring Wildlife + Nature, Portrait + Studio, and Sports Photography—with plenty of opportunities to get out from behind the screen and actually make photographs.Start the morning outside on a sunrise wildlife and nature photowalk, then head inside for presentations, studio experiences, hands-on portrait photography with Sony gear-loaners, and an afternoon sports photography panel.From capturing unpredictable wildlife and building a studio image from the ground up to anticipating the decisive moment on the sidelines, the day explores how working photographers approach very different creative challenges—and what photographers of any experience level can take from their process. Attendees will have opportunities to learn from professionals, get behind the camera, experiment with Sony Alpha gear, and connect with Seattle’s creative community.  https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events4/banners/168cb000-bf4a-11f1-bf96-33a8fc21c298-rimg-w1200-h105-dcf8f8f8-gmir.jpg One day.
