A couple words on COVID-19 and our workshops:As you may know, FD Photo Studio has been forced to put a temporary halt to our events as we had to pause our activity for a little while. Despite this set back, the teacher team decided to keep offering the workshops, but online instead. We will be using ZOOM to host our online classes until we are able to host them live again. We will try to host the most classes we can (as long as they make sense to be held online), and we are looking forward to sharing this weird times with you all. We thank you for all your support over the years and we hope to see you soon. In the meanwhile, stay safe friends!
