  • WANTED: Artists wanting to share studio space

    Hello fellow Bizniks!

    Hope everyone is doing great! I've been trying to find a way to find other artists to share the studio space I work at. So far, none of the options I used to power this search have been successful.

    I just finished upgrading and beautifying my studio in SoDo, and would love to find one or two artists (photographers, retouchers, graphic designers or virtual-media) to share the space with. It's in a very attractive, artist-oriented building.

    I want to change the dynamics of my space, and have a more vibrant and fast-paced place (and someone to talk to some times ;-)) There's plenty of show space in the studio, too.

    Any suggestions? Similar experiences to share? Are you interested? Any of these will be gladly welcomed!

    Thanks!

    Valentina

  • Invitation to a charity photo playdate--and good networking for parents!

    Hi everyone!

    Just to let you know I'll be hosting a charity event this next Wednesday (10/29) from 3:00 to 7:00 pm. Come for a great afternoon of coffee/tea and Macrina Bakery treats for adults, kids photo playdates and get the coolest Halloween studio portraits for the minis! Don't forget to bring their costumes!

    $15 donations will benefit the kids at Broadview Emergency Shelter. For more info please visit: http://www.solid-groun....

    If you also want to bring a spare bag of candy for the kids at the Shelter, they'll be more than welcomed. Lets give these minis a nice Halloween! One portrait per kid/person and 4 4x6 prints will be sent to you afterward.

    The address is 1943 1st Ave S, Suite 2D, Seattle WA 98134 (two blocks South from the Stadiums, where the new Macrina Bakery is) It's going to be a lot of fun--and a good opportunity for moms and dads to network!

    Thanks!

  • Hello, hello! New to Seattle from Atlanta--and from Caracas!

    Hello everyone!

    It's been about a month or so that I joined Biznik. Through this great place I've met a bunch of really cool and interesting people, and attended some really great workshops. I'm really happy and pleased to be part of this community.

    I am a photographer specializing in Travel, Documentary, Editorial and Fine Art photography. I am opening my Art Studio at SoDo at the end of October. I am also a regular contributor for Art Voices Magazine.

    I want to transform people's photographic experiences into works of art, inviting them to produce and stage their own photo sessions along with me.

    Also, I will be planning to photographic trips to Latin America. The experience won't stop at the trip. Photos from the trips will be displayed in shows!

    Life had been pretty interesting for me. I was born and grew up in Caracas, Venezuela but had a tight relationship to the US ever since I was a little girl. I moved to Atlanta five years ago and a year and a half ago fell in love with a wonderful man that brought me to wonderful Seattle. I moved here five months ago--I couldn't before as I was finishing my MFA back in Atlanta. Now I'm getting to know this city and it has definitely charmed me!

    Thanks for stopping by and reading my post!
