Basic Web Design for Photographers
This is a beginning level workshop designed to help tech-shy photographers take control of their online presence. Whether you ae looking to migrate from a platform that is not serving you well, or you are starting from scratch. If you find the process overwhelming, this workshop is for you. In this workshop you will learn how to creating a clean, well-structured website that highlights your work, and is easy to maintain. You will be guided through the basics of creating a portfolio-based website using the Wix “drag and drop”, no-code platform. In the 4 workshop sessions you will learn how to modify a Wix template to create customized home, contact and about pages; as well as image galleries and a primary gallery catalog page. We will also discuss website design, menu and site structure, search engine optimization (SEO) basics within the Wix tools set, and moving or adding a personal url to your Wix site.
To get the most out of this workshop, participants should be prepared to come to the first class with a short bio and headshot, at least one edited portfolio (or body) of work, and any artist statements that accompany the work. If this is not possible, stock or place holding images and text can be used where necessary, as these can be easily updated at a later time.

As an artist, musician and graphic designer, Nicole LeCorgne has been designing promotional graphics and building her own websites, as well as consulting with fellow artists in these areas, for over 20 years. As an arts administrator and curator, Nicole views to artist’s websites on a regular basis, and often makes hiring or curatorial decisions based on how well those sites highlight an artist’s work.

She developed a love for darkroom processes and photography as fine art while an undergraduate at University of New Orleans, but spent the greater part of her career as a percussionist, educator, and ethnomusicologist specializing in music of the Middle East before returning to the darkroom and fine art photography.
Nicole is a Fulbright scholar with an MA in Ethnomusicology from Wesleyan University, and an MFA in Photography from Savanah College of Art and Design. She has photographed in Saudi Arabia for Aramco World Magazine, and has work included in collections such as the Smithsonian Institution and the Awagami Paper Museum in Japan.

Atlanta is a city rich in diverse culture. In 2022 APG launched a series of micro-exhibitions focused on the lens-based artists within the varied communities that make up our member base at APG. The lens-based exhibitions are curated and on view between our flagship exhibitions.
Quintavius Oliver has curated our first 2024 micro-exhibition, Eyes on Atlanta: Black Contemporary Photography, March 12 –April 20, 2024. Opening Reception is March 21, 2024 from 6pm-8:30pm ET.
Drone Pilot and photographer Peter Essick will first give an extensive overview of everything you need to know to be a successful drone photographer. He will then go in the field and demonstrate the best practices for a fine art drone photographer. This shoot is open to anyone interested in buying a drone or to those who have a drone and want to increase their knowledge and ability.
Peter Essick has been using a drone in his photography practice since 2017. He will describe which drones are best for a fine art or editorial photographer, how to fly safely in various locations, as well as show examples of his work. He has produced a fine art series of drone photographs of construction sites in Atlanta as well as used the drone for editorial work."
