Documenting your work can be simpler than you think! During this workshop we will discuss tools and techniques to create images to highlight your work, products, or business in the best way possible. During the first half of the workshop we will cover using a smartphone, editing apps, and various apparatus ranging from simple to complex to create strong images. During the second half of the workshop we will work together to create some images of your work, discuss setting up your own documentation studio at home, and offer feedback on images.
