VICTOR and COMMACK, New York, April 26, 2010 – Two popular companies serving photography lovers of all stripes are riding into Texas this spring, co-sponsoring product giveaways at two major gatherings of photographers and scrapbookers.
jill-e designs, maker of fashionable, functional camera and carry-all bags for today’s technology-rich, on-the-go lifestyle, and Tamron, manufacturer of precision lenses for high-quality photography, are joining forces at the Texas School photo workshop, May 2-7 in Dallas, and the Great American Scrapbook Convention, June 3-5 in Arlington, to present lucky attendees of both events with bags and lenses that help them get the most out of their photography experience.
These giveaways, conducted in conjunction with the sponsors of both events, are indicative of the support and involvement of jill-e designs and Tamron in the broadest range of photography communities – from professionals to enthusiasts, for traditional photography fields as well as newer creative fields such as scrapbooking, the companies said.
“We’re just delighted to be partnering with jill-e designs to bring packages of quality photographic items to a variety of photography lovers at these popular Texas gatherings,” said Stacie Errera, Chief Marketing Officer for Tamron USA. “A sturdy, stylish bag from jill-e designs and a precision camera lens from Tamron can improve the style and technique of any photographer, and we’re pleased to participate at these events in this way – to support people at every level of the photographic art.”
“What photographer wouldn’t love to have a new Tamron lens, and a new jill-e designs bag to carry it in?” said Jill Wight, Co-Owner/Partner of jill-e designs. “It’s a real treat for us to be collaborating with the people at Tamron in a way that will add a little excitement to the Texas School and Great American Scrapbook events, as well as deliver some terrific products to some lucky attendees.”
The Texas School of Professional Photography is celebrating its 35th year in 2010. Attendance at this year’s weeklong gathering of photography enthusiasts and some of the country’s finest instructors is expected to exceed 1,000 enrollees. Its growing popularity has prompted organizers to move the event to the Intercontinental Hotel & Convention Center in Dallas.
The Great American Scrapbook Convention, which takes place June 3-5 at the Arlington Convention Center, is designed for both experienced scrappers and people who simply want to learn more about preserving family stories. GASC events inspire attendees and help them document memories for future generations to enjoy.
jill-e designs and Tamron will be collaborating on other giveaways during the year, including at GASC Chantilly, Va., on June 25-26. Other collaborations are planned for July and August.
