I Can Make Time: Freelancing, Touring, and Motherhood as a Creative

From the darkroom to the director's chair, women have long been shaping the visual language of our world. This panel brings together four artists who are doing exactly that, each in her own way.

Ro.lexx went from a high school athlete to shooting platinum album covers for Bryson Tiller, global campaigns for Nike, and concert tours. She had no formal training, no assistant, and didn’t know what a raw file was. She shares the real story of how relationships, instinct, and a willingness to figure it out built one of the most distinct careers in music photography today.

Ro.lexx spent six weeks on tour last summer as a single mom and made it work. In this presentation she will discuss what it takes to sustain a career in music photography when life doesn't slow down and talk about her experience balancing tour schedules, client relationships, and raising a son who has his own camera in the pit.
