Andrea Rees Photography is seeking clients looking to create brand awareness, update their asset library or are interested in adding photography or photo workshops to their retreats, tour offerings and products.

She has over 18 years of photography experience creating images that tell her client’s stories.

ADAPTING TO A NEW WORLD – GOING VIRTUAL

In 2020, as the world was shut down and Andrea’s business came to a halt, Andrea adapted and changed the way she did business. With borders closed, and portrait photography impossible due to lockdowns, it was clear that it was time to concentrate solely on what she realized she was most passionate about – teaching photography. In October 2020, Andrea began to offer live virtual smartphone photography workshops through Zoom and Google Meet.

In 2021, almost 400 students joined Andrea online for a virtual mobile photography workshop, class or webinar from across Canada, the USA, and as far away as London, Amsterdam, Switzerland and Casablanca with clients such as Google and Fidelity Investments. Andrea’s workshops are offered for virtual team-building events, virtual conferences, virtual holiday parties, virtual professional development classes, and virtual lunch and learn events. These virtual photography classes are practical and interactive, and you will leave the class with tips you can use right away whether for business or personal use.
