CreativeLive…WHAT! it’s FREE!-Alpharetta photographer

 

This week my hubbie is out of town. I will have some “free” time this week to do some self educating. Luckily there are two, not just one, but two different www.creativeLIVE.com seminars, both by Tamara Lackey which I hope to catch. WHAT you don’t know what creativeLIVE is?

Well let me tell you a little bit about it. It is only an AWESOME way for photographers to learn more about the photo business, shooting and everything in between. They hold seminars, FREE, on certain weekends, featuring various creative minds. The best part is they share their wisdom with the rest of us…OH and did I mention, IT”S FREE.

Watching these seminars has really made me re-evaluate the way I look at my business and photography as a whole. IT HAS CHANGED MY LIFE! Well that may sound a bit dramatic. However, it has really encouraged me, given me inspiration, hope, and a fresh way of looking at my work. So I guess, it has CHANGED MY LIFE. HaHa!

So for any fellow video/photographers I would highly recommend checking them out. If you miss a seminar, you can always buy it later. It is well worth the money. Hope they will inspire you as much as I have been inspired.

Now back to your regular programing!

Wedding In Cali!

This past weekend I made a impromptu trip to sunny southern Cali. OK, well I had a least two weeks notice. My friend Jen, of almost 20 years, decided to marry her love Scott on his leave from the US Army. It was a gorgeous wedding with a gorgeous couple.
I told Jen that I was going to photograph their wedding. It was the least I could do. After all what are friends for? Well anyways I am giving you just a sneak peak for now, but hope to post some more soon.
I hit the ground running as soon as I got off the plane yesterday and have not had a full chance to go through them all. I hope to soon. I am sure Jen is anxious to see them as well.

 

Phillippe Halsman: Photographer

Last week when I went to the High Museum in Atlanta I was exposed to photographer Philippe Halsman.  He was a friend of Salvador Dali and they collaborated on many projects. Some of the photos that they collaborated on were in the exhibit and were very intriguing.
One image that I thought was really awesome was the one below. Dali also did a painted version of this image that was shown at the High.
Check Halsman out if you have a chance. He has some very interested images.
