FREE Pop-Up Headshot Studio & Community Creatives Mixer at Bobzbay Books featuring Photography by Erin B.
When: Sunday, February 6th from 3:30pm – 6:00pm
Where: Bobzbay Books (419 N. Main St. Bloomington, IL 61701)
Who: YOU!
Calling all creatives and community members in need of a (free!) professional headshot and a chill environment to meet and mingle with others! Professional photography can make all the difference in marketing your art, your business, or yourself but is an expense that not all can afford. Erin of Photography by Erin B. has generously donated her talents and time to make professional photography accessible to all and will be hosting a pop-up headshot studio at Bobzbay Books offering FREE (yes, completely free!) professional headshots to the community! Join us at the bookstore on Sunday, 2/2/25 from 3:30pm – 6:00pm to mix and mingle with other creatives in the community and have your headshot taken by a professional!
Each participant will spend a few minutes in front of the camera and will leave with digital access to three headshots available to download for professional or private use – and hopefully a new friend or two! All headshots taken during the event will appear in an online community gallery on Photography by Erin B.’s Facebook page after the event and will be available to download for two weeks. All headshots for this event will be taken against a neutral brown backdrop, so black or solid tops tend to look best! (*Erin will only be shooting individual headshots against the neutral background for this event; no couples/groups/families or alternate set-ups, sorry! If you’re interested in booking an extended session with alternate backdrop colors, a personal brand shoot, a group session, etc., please reach out to Erin directly to book!)
In addition, light refreshments will be provided and the bookstore will be open for shopping to event participants and the public. So whether you’re an author in need of a photo for your book jacket, a professional in need of a sharp LinkedIn photo, an artist or creative looking to market yourself, a person in search of the perfect dating profile picture, or an individual who wants to see themselves documented at this time in their life, this event is for YOU!
About Photography by Erin B.: Erin has been capturing memories as a professional photographer for 17+ years. For the duration of her career, she has built and maintained a safe space built on the foundations of inclusivity, self-healing, and confidence for all clients. Her portrait work with women, including those who have experienced sexual assault and domestic violence, as well as her work on the #MyNameIs campaign to end discrimination against transgender adults earned her a “Women of Distinction” award with the McLean County YWCA in 2022. With a background in portraiture and more than six years of experience in wedding photography, you can trust her to make you feel seen, comfortable, and completely at ease while being photographed, no matter the location or occasion. Her goal for her photography clients is less about disassociating your way through photos, and more about finding enjoyment and being captured in spaces where you feel you can be your most authentic self. She believes everyone deserves to be documented, and this event is a great expression of that commitment!
