Hey All- I know there are a few photographers on here. I'm looking for someone who can photograph my artwork. Particularly experienced in professional photography of 3D , relief work is even better. I have about 7 new pieces, which can be tricky so do need someone with the specific experience of photographing artwork. Please DM if this sounds like you, let me know your rate or you if you can recommend someone. New Paltz area. Much appreciated!

Hi all! A close friend is looking for a newborn photographer in the Albany/Troy area. I know that's a bit out of the purview of this group but figured I'd ask. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

Anyone here with experience in data visualization and infographics?
I'm working on some projects where the items I want to create are currently beyond my skill level.
I don't know what I need- looking for informational chats with potential to hire someone on contract … once I know what I need/want

Hi all! I'm working on a project for SUNY New Paltz and we are looking for a high-res wow shot of the ridge that we can use in a print piece. If you're an alum, even better, but we're open to options. If you have something like this, please DM me so I can discuss more details!

Hey Joel, nice to meet you! I don't know the social scene in the lower Hudson Valley very well, but there are definitely people here who do. (Though I can say someone last week posted about a Mario Kart tournament in Kingston, so there are other gamers here too)
And thank you for calling N64/GameCube "nostalgic" instead of "vintage" so I don't feel ancient

It’s invite only with a max capacity of 60 people so that we can cultivate relationships between producers and the guests who want to connect with them.

Hello! I'm a faculty member in the SUNY New Paltz Graphic Design program, and I teach a client-based course where students are paired with on-campus and community partners to work on a pro-bono project for one semester. Students learn about client communication, professional practices, and project management, all the fun stuff.
I am looking for a volunteer design professional (or two or three, could be a panel) willing to do a Q&A with students to share their experiences and answer student questions for an hour (in-person, on the New Paltz campus) on Thursday, April 23, 10-11am. If you're available, please reach out. Our students are interested and engaged and love interacting with professionals in the field. Thank you!
