Hoene, fashion photographer, David Kordalski, Visual Editor for The

photojournalist will talk about their roles in Visual Communication.
1:00 pm–Liz Von Hoene–Fashion photography leader and VisCom Alumni

Her
style of photography is both sophisticated and inviting, appealing to
clients as diverse as Target, W, Italian Elle, and Neiman Marcus. And
while the models in her images are beautiful and the settings are
striking, the real pizzazz comes from Liz herself. Whether she’s
shooting fashion, beauty, or lifestyle, she gives even the most
familiar, everyday scene a fantastical twist that transports it from
the realm of the ordinary into the extraordinary.
2:00 pm–Scholarship Awards and Recognition
2:45 pm–David Kordalski–Visual Editor and graphics leader
He
is assistant managing editor for visuals at The Plain Dealer,

Communication.
