An Animal Image Makers virtual conference for pet and animal photographers located around the globe.
** April 15-18, 2021 **
The Animal Image Makers conference brings together professional pet and animal photographers from all over the world for an unbelievable weekend of education and networking like no other. The love our attendees have for animals creates an instant bond and energy that we don't find at any other conferences. This event is 100% about the animals and the business of photographing our four-legged friends. Some of the top animal photography educators have been brought together to offer a one-of-a-kind experience. This conference is hosted by TCPPA (Twin Cities Professional Photographer's Association), a PPA affiliate in the greater Minneapolis-St. Paul area.
Hear what are professional photographers saying about Animal Image Makers!
We know that learning is easier when you have excellent instructors. Our instructors are passionate about the subjects they teach and bring this enthusiasm into their seminars and courses.
Whether you're looking for technical training, a best practice seminar, or a studio management course, we can help. All of our programs focus on pet and animal photography and running a successful business in this niche industry.
One of the top take-aways our members rave about is the community and the friendships that have been built among animal photographers. Even though 2021 is virtual, we promise to make it a community event!
