August, 2009
I know I’ve been absent from blogging lately. I can’t even tell you how busy it has been here. Finding time to be in front of the computer is hard! This week I have to finish up production on 1 (maybe 2) weddings, start a wedding, do 1 shoot, be at an all day charity event, have 4 appointments, finish 3 albums, give a one on one RE:Workshop, a few orders to take care of, and currently 12 e-mails that require my attention. I’m tired just thinking about it. Or maybe it’s just 1am.
This afternoon I got one of the best voicemails I ever received! I really hope to get their permission to post it on the blog.
There’s another contest that I just had to enter my favorite image in. Check it out and vote! http://www.facebook.com/modernphotographers
I hope to have the next wedding online in the next two days!
It’s the wedding season, which means my office is the light on in the neighborhood at 2am. As I was yawning I was getting ready to shut things down here. My cat Reeses was sitting on the floor at the office door yawning as well. Somehow a lightbuld appeared over my head. I grab my camera and came up with an intro to all my videos.
This shoot is what I call the New Haven to Branford Express. I’m not talking about a train ride either. Sandra and Nelson liked what they saw from my past Yale and Branford beach shoots, so they wanted both! All right before sunset!
***UPDATE*** WEBSITE LAUNCHED: RE:WORKSHOP
I’ve gotten numerous e-mails from people who want to come to the workshop but couldn’t on the original date. So I added another date, knowing it was a holiday weekend, but that still didn’t work for a few people! So I’m adding a third date that seems to be working well! Now since there are 3 dates, I am going to change the attendance limit to 5 photographers each day. It was 10 but I decided I wanted to cram everyone in my office and be in my working environment. With 5 people, plus me, and the computers running, I’m going to run my AC on full speed. Here are the dates and details:
This Sunday, August 23rd 10am-6pm (1 spot open!)
Sunday, September 6th, Overbooked!
Thursday, September 10th, Overbooked!
Just e-mail me which date you would like to attend, re@photographer-re.com, and I will put you on the list!
Here’s what I’m going to cover:
• How to be productive.
• File organization.
• How quickly can you get things done once the photos are taken?
• What you need to know about outsourcing.
• Get images online, on facebook, to vendors, and order products quickly and efficiently without sacrificing quality and freeing up more of your precious time.
• We will cover Lightroom, Photoshop, Photomechanic, and more.
• You’ll see how I use ShootQ to manage it all.
You can ask questions all day long. We’ll use the end of the day to talk about any topic you’d like.
The fee is still the same, $60 per person. We will have sandwiches for lunch and a home made or catered dinner (depending on the night).
Love it!
