Oooooh, yeah. It's right.around.the.corner and I've been hunkered in my office trying to hammer out the details for this weekend's creativeLIVE online photography course. We're revving up for a smashing good time and I'd love to see you there! I'll be covering topics ranging from photographing my first wedding, the mistakes I made, transitioning to the high-end wedding photography, how to organize styled shoots, the submission and publication process (both print and online), and photographing a live shoot editorially!!
But wait…there's more!
Just kidding. There isn't. I just always wanted to say that. I love infomercials.
