Rosie Hardy
Rosie Hardy came to photography as a teenager and quickly became a household name for fans of conceptual photography with her whimsical, narrative self-portraits. Internationally recognized as one of the pioneers of her genre, Rosie continues to create beautiful works, both personally, as well as for such recognized names like Maroon 5 and Disney. As mesmerizing as her images are, Rosie herself is a bright soul who ignites a room with her smile, and she’s brining her vast expertise to Promoting Passion in 2024!

Sara Lando
Sara Lando is one of the most creative, unique, and spellbinding storytellers of her generation. Using alternative and historic processes, Sara creates multi-layered images that transcend the visual medium. Internationally exhibited and awarded, Sara never backs down from experimentation in her art. Beyond, her workshops and lectures are some of the most hilarious and informative in the business. Sara will be joining us at PPC2024 from Italy, and we couldn’t be more excited to learn from this talented artist.
