The afternoon promises to be chock full of information and inspiration. Mr. Wilkes will be taking attendees through his entire workflow, from start to final print/output. Whether you’ve joined us for the morning event or not, all attendees are encouraged to bring their laptops and follow along with their own image selects, as he prepares his images of St. Elizabeth’s Hospital, and creates final prints.

Mr. Wilkes and his assistant will be using state of the art equipment and printers, generously provided by CDIA for this event.
