About Dittlo Digital:

Hi, I'm Tyler Vitello, better known as ‘dittlo’. I have been taking photos and making videos professionally for over a decade. I work closely with a lot of different creatives, artists and local businesses creating visually engaging content. I am often asked to capture artwork to be made into prints and thought it would be a great way to give back and share my insight into how to do it yourself as it really isn't as complicated as most would think! In this workshop, I will share my tips and tricks for getting the best results, all the way from DIY level to how I would do it. Bring whatever gear, artwork or just plain curiosity and come on down and (hopefully) learn something new!

I have been working in the video and photo production industry for over a decade. As a self-taught photographer and seasoned creative, I have always been fascinated with the power of visual storytelling and its ability to convey complex ideas and emotions.

My work is driven by a desire to innovate and push the boundaries of what is possible. I specialize in conceptualizing and executing creative campaigns that inspire and engage audiences across multiple platforms. Whether it's creating stunning visuals, editing cohesive stories, or developing engaging content, I'm always looking for new and exciting ways to connect with people.

Love,

dittlo
