Shooting Crafty Bitches
This past weekend, I worked one of the best creative craft shows in Detroit; the Detroit Urban Craft Fair.
I was hired as the official photographer by DUFC organizers & I was excited about the opportunity in addition to the shopping!
The DUCF showcases some the best crafty/alternative crafters from around the Detroit area. At the DUCF, you can find anything from wax LP note books, hand spun yarn to custom fine jewelry, crocheted dildos & anything in between. Not to mention the great people watching.
So since, I’m out of school on break, I had a chance to review the images once I got home & shoot them to the client yesterday, which is faster than normal. I usually have a 1 week turnaround for most events.
Today, I got this slamming testimonial from DUFC coordinator/super crafty Bethany Nixon of Reware Vintage.
“Tafari’s pictures of our event were fantastic! He paid attention to detail, and was extremely friendly and liked by all our vendors he worked with through the day. Our pictures came much faster than we had hoped or expected, and really showed the creativity of Tafari, our vendors, and the Detroit Urban Craft Fair!
Thanks again so much, you were such a big part of my fun DUCF experience!”
Another satisfied client & mission accomplished!!!
Later this week, I’m working another large event for the Detroit Parade Company & can’t wait. I think I like event photography too much. Let me calm down now. Damn!!!

Nice!
I saw the pics and you did do a great job! It captured the feeling (I was there as well, but after you were gone) and you my friend, are talented!
I.Am.Officially.Jealous.
I even bought something there! And my little one was so cute he got a free gift from one of the vendors, Sloe Gin Fizz.
Looking forward to the pics from the parade!!
love it!
Thx for the feedback friends!
