THE TASTING ROOM GALLERY
We Two exhibit heads to Colchester
Wethersfield photographer Jack McConnell shows a collection of B&W portraits this summer at the Priam Vineyard Gallery in Colchester. Each of twenty-five photos reveal the relationships of two people--friends, couples, siblings, parent-child. The We Two photos were taken on a small island in the Penobscot Bay in Maine, in small towns in Portugal, at a country fair in Lancaster, NH, and downtown streets of Hartford, CT.
Throughout his 35-year professional career, shooting annual reports and ad
campaigns for Fortune 500 companies, Jack McConnell photographed hundreds of CEO portraits and thousands of employees at work in industrial and office environments.
Meet the Photographer dates: June 5 and June 27
Because almost everyone who owns a camera, ends up shooting portraits
and candids of their families and friends, Jack will be available to talk about
techniques and styles at the Tasting Room patio on Saturday June 5 and
Sunday June 27 between 2-4pm. He will share tips for getting better photos,
demonstrate a few techniques, and have a conversation about his 35 years
traveling around the US and Europe as a corporate photographer.
