CFC PHOTOGRAPHER CERTIFICATION

The Charlotte Fashion Collective’s CFC Photographer Certification is designed to identify our most talented, reliable, trustworthy, and effective photographers within the CFC Community.

While we recognize that we have a wealth of photography talent and that all of our photographers are skilled in fashion photography, the Certification Program is designed to identify those that are the highest skilled in photography, post-production, communication, proven reliability, ethics, and trustworthiness.

Certification will be managed by our Certification Team which includes: Judah Townsend, David Andrews, and Joanne Hayes.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Interested candidates must pass the REQUIRED Criminal Background Check as part of the certification process and have participated in at least (3) three CFC events before applying.

Benefits of Certification

1.  1^st option for paid opportunities within CFC hosted events.
