After Hours Meeting – Swap Meet/Sale
February 9 at 7PM, S.M.I.L.E Station, 8210 SE 13th, Portland OR
Got a bunch of stuff in your studio you are not using, why not bring it and swap with someone who has something you would use. Or do you just have stuff to sell? Bring it, maybe someone will have a good home for it. Got backdrops you are tired of, they are a great thing to swap. So look through your stuff and see what you might want to swap and or sell, then head out to our February After Hours.

I'm looking to share studio space in the Pdx area with other photographers who have a small hourly need each month for studio use. Either a studio that's up in running that would like to share some expenses or I'd be interested in spearheading a new location/warehouse setting, lots of set areas and splitting the costs among 4 to 6 shooters.
