Just returned from a busy, busy, wonderful week in Las Vegas - the WPPI (Wedding & Portrait Photographers International) Convention, with an estimated 15,000 photographers in attendance from all over the world. I so enjoyed the entire week, kicking off with two days of intense print judging of some very cool categories, including photojournalism, humor, fashion, and nature & landscape. I had the great opportunity to judge alongside some immensely talented individua

I just returned from Phoenix, Arizona, after teaching a pre-con class at Imaging USA, the annual convention and tradeshow for Professional Photographers of America that brings in thousands of photographers from all over the world.

I just received the October issue of Rangefinder Magazine, and I love the layout of my follow-up article about the general election! This is not a re-post, by the way - the last time I put up an article, a few posts ago, it was September. This time it's October. See: totally different months. I do think it's so interesting how life can just open to what we are seeking. I remember being struck by how cool it was to be showcased in last November's issue. Less than one y

The workshop itself will take place in and around

Over the last few weeks, I've received quite a few messages from photographers asking if I know when learnfest at Bald Head Island will sell out - my answer has always been the same, that I just didn't know exactly. Well, happily, it looks like registration has been zooming along, and we're getting close to selling out entirely. At this point, we have no plans for learnfest '09. Not to say it might never happen, just that we're only focusing on 2008 right now and just maki
