Topic 1: 2016 Industry Prediction Follow-Up
- http://improvephotography.com/36317/be-a-better-photographer-in-2016-ip155/
- Nick: 5d iv.. will be underwhelming, but just good enough to keep me a canon shooter
- Jeff: Adobe is going to make graphics acceleration work in Lightroom
- Jim: 5dIV will have 4k
- Brian: Mine deals w/ Jeff
Topic 2: PR Photography (Sandy)
- With the holidays comes LOTS of PR work for me. It’s really a great way to get really good at using your speedlight on-camera as well as your settings in general. I have just probably in the last year gotten to the point where I don’t need to think about it too much.
- There are a few ways to get PR jobs. Any event that is sponsored by a company, contact their PR and Marketing department and ask if they need coverage. Soon you could be their go-to for that event.
- Couple things: don’t use fancy presets. Just make sure your WB and exposure is good. If you want to get “artsy”, do it with different angles and lenses.
Topic 3: Quitting my day Job
- Proud and anxious to say that early in 2017 I will be leaving my day job to pursue photography full time.
- I have enough clientele to sustain myself in paying of bills and basic costs of living for the next year and have decided to take the leap towards growing my business, but not in a way you might think…
