Wow, are you in for a treat!! Bill Lea and Kevin Adams have organized what has become the MUST-ATTEND photography event for North Carolina and the Southeast. With experience gained from a combined 60 years of photographing and teaching, Bill and Kevin started from the ground up in creating this extraordinary festival. They’ve combined the best features from other photography events with their own ideas for an exciting and rewarding learning experience.
Persons who attend Foto Fest tell us that what they like most about the event is not only the terrific learning experience and access to a wide range of vendors, but also the personal touch. At Foto Fest, you are not just another attendee at just another photography convention. You are part of a photographic family.
If you have ever witnessed the passion, dedication, and strive for excellence that Bill and Kevin have for everything they do, then you know that Foto Fest is an event you will not want to miss. For 2013, they have retained everything that made the previous events such big hits and have also incorporated new ideas to build upon this success.
The most fun a photographer can have in the Southeast!
