A lot of folks have emailed me and asked if I am taking reservations for 2010 sessions – yes I am! I am busy working on some new things for 2010, so if you’ve asked me for a date and I haven’t responded, I have not forgotten you!
I hope this weekend that I will announce all the changes, but it’s very much work in progress. I swear I change my mind every 10 minutes. I will likely be emailing many of my 2009 clients to pick your brain, so be prepared for some homework! These are your photographs, so I want to make sure I’m giving you the products and services you want most.
Last year my focus was taking as many pictures as I could to get experience behind the camera. This year I’m dedicating a lot more time to workshops, “homework” (creating assignments for myself), and the technical aspects of photography. There is much room for improvement. Like Grand Canyon sized empty spaces. I’m attending a very exciting workshop this month that I think will revolutionize my workflow, so that alone will do wonders for me. But I’m not happy with my technical skills at this point, so it’s time to address that before the sessions start to fill my weekends.
I’ll end this post with an old photo. I haven’t taken any pictures since this weekend and I’m guessing you don’t want to see any more photos of my cat. I took this 2 years ago at the House of Blues – this is Chris Thile, probably most known as a member of Nickel Creek (no longer together) and most recently of the splendiforous (is that a word?) Punch Brothers. If you don’t know about Chris and the Brothers Punch, go ahead and smack yourself in the head and promise me you’ll educate yourself post haste. See the video immediately following the picture which I also took that night. You can thank me later. Each of these guys is a prodigy in his own right. Put them all together and you might as well just leave your socks off.
