This is one of those days when there’s so much to talk about that a post winds up looking like the Meat Lovers Special at Denny’s! It’s a lot of disconnected thoughts, but plenty of meat in the concepts!
On the Summer School Scene: This year’s sponsors are a pretty amazing group of companies and the first [...]
There’s a point in life where you realize you’ve spent too much time working and not enough time just enjoying friends. It’s the old line about stopping to smell the roses. I’ve written about it and talked about it a lot, but until a few years ago, I was just as guilty as many of you.
This [...]
When I headed out on my own just over two years ago I really thought I’d have more free time. I actually thought doing more freelance work and getting out of the corporate world would give me more time just to sit back and chill now and then…NOT!
But here’s the point, I have absolutely no complaints. Being [...]
This is partly a rerun, but I promise it’s a good one. More important though is what prompted me this morning to run it!
At the end of last week I had to announce the cancellation of Julieanne Kost’s program as part of the Akron Photo Series on May 23 and 24. The challenge was simply getting enough [...]
It’s 5:00 a.m. on a Friday morning and I’ve got nothing in the pipeline for the blog today. There are no guest posts that I really want to run, but I do seem to have a lot of attitude. After all it’s Friday! Now remember, I’m not a wedding photographer, so as the weekend approaches [...]

(scroll down on the link and see if you recognize anybody!) Expressive Therapy is all [...]

It’s incredible to see that things have completely turned around with the economy as well. Photography was listed as the most lucrative career field in the U.S. National advertising and promotional statistics showed photography as the only career choice where [...]
One of the keys to greatness as a professional photographer is taking the time to just experiment with your gear. We were all creative as kids, when we used to play with our toys. Well, just because we’re adults doesn’t mean that creativity needs to stop.
I had a whole guest post from Matthew Jordan Smith [...]
If there’s one thing always obvious with Jerry Ghionis, he always gives you more than your asked for. He always exceeds expectations. This blog post was a prime example. It was meant to be just a quick guest post, but it had so much great information I had to run it in two parts.
In this second “installment”, [...]
Today’s blog might sound like an infomercial, but there’s simply no excuse for holes in your skill set. There are websites, blogs and especially hands-on programming available, literally to EVERYBODY.
Akron Photo Series: I’m making it the first on the list, but it’s only because last week’s programming was pretty remarkable. We got Bambi Cantrell to the [...]
