Your lens is more than just gear; it is the brush that paints emotion, the voice that captures connection, and the storyteller that transforms moments into timeless stories.

During this live demo, Jen will explore how lens choice shapes the emotional impact of your imagery, especially when working with couples. From wide-angle shots that set the scene to intimate portraits that capture raw emotion, every lens in your bag has a role to play in telling a unique story.

Join us in the Adorama Event Space for a timely and much-needed conversation on copyright, creativity, and the fast-moving impact of AI in the world of content creation.

As artificial intelligence transforms how creative work is produced, shared, and monetized, understanding the fundamentals of copyright protection is more essential than ever. Whether you’re a photographer, filmmaker, designer, or digital creator, knowing how to safeguard your work — and when to register it — can make all the difference in protecting your livelihood and creative legacy.

Gili Karev of Klaris Law will share expert insights into the evolving intersection of copyright law and AI, offering practical guidance for creators navigating these rapid technological changes.

Key discussion points include:

• The foundations of copyright and why it matters for every creator
• The benefits of registering your work and how registration strengthens your legal protection
• What copyright law currently says about AI-generated content
• Ownership and authorship: who holds the rights to AI-assisted creations?
• How to protect your intellectual property in an AI-driven creative landscape
• Fair use: where legal and ethical boundaries are being tested
• Case studies highlighting recent copyright challenges and outcomes
• What upcoming legislation and court decisions could mean for artists and content professionals

The session will conclude with a Q&A, giving attendees the opportunity to ask their most pressing questions about protecting and managing their creative rights in the age of AI.

At some point during the year, just about every person has a moment where they feel a little unsure about how they’ll look in photos, and that’s completely normal. Whether it’s worrying about their arms, chin, midsection, or even balding spots, these are real concerns that come up, and photographer, William Adwin gets it. That’s why creating a space of trust right from the beginning is such a big part of the process. When couples feel safe to be honest about what they're self-conscious about, it opens the door to capturing them in the most flattering and genuine way.

There’s a whole toolbox of lighting and posing tricks that can highlight the best features and downplay the areas people might not love as much. And it’s not just about hiding things—it’s about helping couples feel good in front of the camera. There’s also a careful eye on avoiding awkward angles or poses that create weird optical illusions (no one wants to look stiff or bigger than they are just because of a bad pose!). At the end of the day, William’s goal is to make sure every couple feels confident, comfortable, and truly seen in their photos—because that’s when the magic really happens.
