According to Fajriyah, the subjects of the photography training have been customized according to SMSEs needs to promote their products and businesses to the general public using the photos that will be displayed in their own product marketing platforms, including marketplace and social media.

“Through this training, with photography skills they're expected to be more encouraged and confident in promoting their good quality products in the digital markets, which can reach wider consumers," concluded Fajriyah
