Argh Matey!That’s right, with pirate hate, sword and eye patch and camera in hand, we’re doing a 3hr Cruise on Circle O with the B&H and Lexar crew on 18 Oct! They are not only crazy enough to let me on board, give me a pirate sword but I also get a mic so you can hear me all over the boat! How sick is that?!
A whole lot of folks have been asking if we’re coming back to New York this fall. I am most happy to say we most certainly are. While everything is in place, plans made and logistics dealt with, details won’t be broadcasted until 8 Sept. I can tell you we’ll start the fun 17 Oct at Calumet, then B&H and finish up at Unique on the 20th with a WHOLE bunch in between. I’ll be doing formal presentations and shoots the like you’ve never seen done by me or in NY before and if all goes well, I’ll have an informal photo walk as well. So stay tuned, we’ comin back to the Big Apple..Yahooooo!

I’m totally pumped about our Fall Color Class being posted on Kelby Training…great timing! It’s a two hour class between behind the camera and behind the computer lessons…I talk too much! Filmed in our backyard in the Sierra, we were very excited to share our home with folks. And those who want to explore these lessons but with an East Coast flavor, join us this fall for what is looking like a killer color year! Thanks to all the folks at Kelby Training for producing a great class! (You can thank Brandon for the Bloopers reel!)

Ya! Winter Yosemite Workshop in 2013…can’t wait! The dates are 14-17, March 2013. You would arrive on the 13th for our evening get together and plan on leaving after sunset (dark) on the 17th. The price is $1695 which includes the workshop packet, transportation once you’re at Yosemite Valley and instruction. Once signed up you would get more info in regards to lodging.
We are talking about a lot of photography (not a bunch of hiking) and some of the best and least known locations. If we’re really lucky, we’ll have the snows and a winter storms that blow in great clouds and create gorgeous landscapes. We’ll photograph everything from critters, waterfalls, granite, trees and whatever stops in front of our lenses in color and black and white. We’ll spend time in the digital darkroom answering those kinds of questions and hopefully we’ll get an opportunity for a star trail or two.
Hope you can join us, we look forward to sharing our decades of wanderings with you. To register, call Sharon at 760.924.8632 (9-5) PST. You will need to pay a deposit of 50% to reserve your spot!

Many ask if I will be taking photographers to photograph Grizzlies again. I’ve not take photographers to AK for Griz for many years for many reasons. An opportunity has come our way that might make it possible for us to do this again. Part of the equation is you and if you would want to join us. And the big issue there is price and I more than realize this is not inexpensive but it looks like a participants price would be around $6k for 5 nights (In Sept) and that does not include transportation to AK (but does include everything once you get to AK). If this is of interest to you, give us a call 760.924.8632. Not taking sign up yet, just seeing is there is enough interest to pull the trigger.

We are constantly being asked business questions, I mean a lot! There is a whole lot that goes into a photography business, much of which is basic common sense. a whole lot is very specific to just photography. Many simply send an email looking for a one sentence answer to, “How do get my photography business started?” Or more commonly of late, “How do I make money from my photography?” They see all these statements about how you can make money on the web with your photography and while it is true you can make sales, this is a far cry from a sustained income or business. When I talk about business and selling images, I’m talking long term, longer than 1 day or 1 month or 1 year. This requires more than a 1 sentence answer.
Can you have a photography business in this day with our current economic trends? I believe so but it requires you observe the number one tenant in the photographic business. The image is everything! And I’m not talking about 1 image or 100 or 1000 but a continual creation of a body of work that is always growing. Not talking about 1 image processed 100 ways in Photoshop either. I’m talking a continual growth in your photography creating an inventory your can pull from when you need it. There is a very old business adage, You Can’t Sell from an Empty Cart. There are a lot more sayings I pile on during our Biz Class, but everything comes back to this basic cornerstone concept. The image is everything!
