PORTALS, A Photo Experience by Canon in NYC

Canon is hosting PORTALS, a pop-up photo experience in NYC that ends this Sunday, November 18th, and then heads to Los Angeles. The 11-day pop-up is built around photo moments that transports visitors to an entirely new world by embedding camera tips and tricks into the consumer journey. It's made up of five unique photography setups, allowing both amateur and experienced photographers to create exciting, instagrammable photos. This pop-up experience allows guests to shoot with and get familiar with the features of Canon cameras.

Portal of Focus 

Switch to a wide aperture lens to adjust depth of field and open a portal of focus

Portal of New Perspectives

Used the flip screen of the Canon camera, laid the camera down, and used my phone to actually take the shot

Portal of Reflection 

Offers a more thoughtful, pensive, sometimes surreal perspective. This shot uses the flip screen of the Canon camera

Portal of Light

Used the low-light and long exposure features of the Canon camera to open up a portal of light.

Since the company I work for full time manufactures rugs, 

this flying rug experience was a fun one to shoot!
