Abby Ferguson

Experience

Abby’s background with photography started in the art world, learning technique and technical aspects while creating conceptual-based bodies of work. Prior to and throughout graduate school, she taught classes covering studio lighting, introductory photography (both film and digital), and even 2D design. In 2014 she won the Society for Photographic Education Midwest Conference Scholarship Award and had the opportunity to present her work at the SPE National Conference in New Orleans. After graduating with her Master of Fine Arts she began working for a rapidly growing vacation rental company in Denver, Colorado, where she developed (no pun intended) their photography program, established the photography brand standards, and launched the in-house editing team. It was there that she established her expertise in the real estate and vacation rental photography milieu. In 2019, Abby and her husband moved to Hawaii where she shifted focus to her freelance career, shooting a broad spectrum of client work and personal projects. She also embarked on a new writing career with Fstoppers, writing a variety of technical photography as well as creativity-focused articles.
