I’ve written a lot about things that make this industry so special – well, one of them is the way everybody watches each other’s backs. Incredible friendships develop and it all starts with every one’s mutual love for the craft!
At the end of last week I got a call from Vicki Taufer. After a lot [...]
Last year Nicole Wolf did a couple of guest blogs that were tremendous. She was willing to do another, but not until I read what she sent did I realize the importance of her journey. This is a relatively long blog, technically too long for the normal blog post, but there’s no way I wanted [...]
From the beginning of these profiles I’ve been suggesting each of these photographers should be in your “network”. You need to stay on top of what they’re doing. You need to catch their ideas for making business stronger and for helping you to focus, not on your subjects but on you – your goals and strategy [...]

Since a picture is worth a thousand words, then I really have very little I have to write this morning, thanks to PWDLabs and Jim Graham. I got an email from Jerry Weiner at PWD Labs two days ago, but was out of town and it was tough to take the time to respond. Jerry wanted [...]

It was the headline of a story by David Dudley in the AARP Magazine this month and yes, I admit to reading AARP and damn proud of being old enough [...]
This blog has become a labor of love since it started in July. I’ve tried to stay with topics relevant to today’s challenges. I’ve also had some amazing posts from some of the industry’s finest photographers and I’ve learned a little something new with every guest blog.
Now I need a little help from you – I’m [...]
This week has been pretty incredible…it started with the electricity in the air at DWF’s convention. Lots of energy, optimism, friendships and good solid education and finished with Imaging USA – for the first time that I can remember, an outstanding show, packed with people, old friends and again the energy of people coming together [...]

Yesterday’s post from Jay Lawrence Goldman brought out a familiar theme, diversity.
