Come meet and greet Veretta Cobler, professional photographer, who will give a presentation on working with film and digital photography.

Veretta has moved back home to Fort Scott after over four decades of living in New York City where she maintained her fully-equipped commercial photography studio. Throughout her career she transitioned from the classic photographic film and darkroom expertise to the complexity of today’s digital photography technology. Her experience expands to studio lighting and graphics computer skills. She is looking forward to sharing her knowledge in her home community.

This in-depth seminar is designed for all levels of photographers from the beginner to the more

experienced. She is looking to help improve and enhance their shots.

While in New York City as a professional photographer, she worked in fine arts, fashion, portraiture, still life and journalistic cultural study. Her fashion images were published in various U.S. magazines including Bride, Modern Bride, Bridal Guide, Elegant Bride, Martha Stewart Living, The Knot, Seventeen, Prom, and New York Magazine. Her New York clients now use her images for their social media accounts.

Veretta’s fine art photography has resulted in exhibitions and publications of her work throughout her career. Published works include New York Underground (2004), a coffee table photography book depicting the nightlife in New York City in the late 1970’s. She has recently completed a book about the life and teachings of a Lakota spiritual man, and is in the process of seeking a publisher.
