Elevating print with X-Photographers at Fotofair 2024

Who can better tell about the photo paper quality than those using it in the field? The same thought came to our minds. Our X-Photographers are the perfect ambassadors for showcasing the unparalleled excellence of our photographic paper. They rely on our products to capture and preserve their stunning images, ensuring every detail is rendered with precision and vibrancy. No doubt, their firsthand experience, skills, and passion can unveil the magic of photo printing in a whole new light. Thus, we are now joining forces with Fujifilm Electronic Imaging and our talented X-Photographers to elevate the art of printed photos!

Our first big step was a joint presence at the Fotofair in The Netherlands. It’s an annual event that gathers photography enthusiasts and professionals for a day full of inspiration, knowledge exchange, and fun. This was a huge hit and a fantastic opportunity to bring everything together. Fujifilm Electronic Imaging rolled out an impressive range of our top-tier cameras and equipment, and four of our incredible X-Photographers – Michael Graste, Marco Ter Beek, Jacques Yasemin, and Maarten van der Voorde – took the stage with captivating lectures and presentations, sharing their personal experience and useful insights.

We also presented our best-in-class photographic paper, showcasing large-format, high-end prints mounted on dibond, and underscoring the value and impact of printed photography. In this regard, a big shoutout to our partner, Profotonet, for helping create these stunning artworks. Their craftsmanship truly brought our vision to life and added an extra layer of excellence to the event.

Photobooth Creatives & OnTrack in Tilburg: where photography and print meet

Two heads are better than one, right? It seems a bunch can move mountains! We are proud of our community of a new generation of passionate photographers, and this April, we were happy to gather them for a creative brainstorm.

Members of Photobooth Creatives, in collaboration with the dynamic minds behind the OnTrack festival, visited our production site in Tilburg, the Netherlands. Photobooth Creatives is a community for photo creators where they can network and share a valuable experience and personal tips and tricks with each other. They regularly organise plenty of photo events like photoshoots, photo walks, and brainstorming sessions. This time, they came to us to see how our best-in-class photographic paper is made and discuss new ideas and possibilities with our prints.

So, we pulled back the curtain on the magic behind Fujifilm, but the real magic happened when we sat down to brainstorm potential collaborations. That was the spirit! Sparks flew as we explored what we could do together. It’s definitely a new step towards strengthening the unique Fujifilm combination of photography and print.

What’s next? Well, the possibilities are as vast as the creative visions that fuel us. With newfound connections and inspiration, we’re ready to set sail on a new journey. And it promises to be fascinating!

Are you OnTrack?

The OnTrack festival gathers a vibrant, youthful community for two days of exploring street culture and everything connected to it. The line-up includes open-air performances, streetwear brands, photo exhibitions, sports, and graffiti artists live as they paint murals. It opens a completely different side of Tilburg you didn’t expect. And we are thrilled to be a part of it by supporting the festival and donating the prints. See you there on June 1-2, at the Spoorzone!
