Time went by fast!

So we finished class with Sonny. I learned a whole lot about stock photography and I really like the way its supposed to look. There's a certain look to it that doesn't make it look setup.

We shot a set of twins and we did about 4 different shots and them came out well. You don't always need a whole studio setup to make a picture look good.

Now I'm in Website Marketing. I took a mini vacation and missed the first day of class. But I picked up on what I missed last night. So far I've emailed 3 photographers regarding their marketing techniques/plans. Hopefully, I'll get a response back from at least 2 of them.

This module we will create/update our websites and create a database of 50 potential clients. We shall see how it goes.

BACK TO SCHOOL!!!

We start stock photography with Sonny on Monday. Both nights were high paced. He's full of energy which keeps us on our toes!

We were in the studio on Wednesday night and I shot my tools. I used the 100mm MACRO lens that the school has. I fell in love with it! Sonny had us setup two different table tops. One in the studio using a Profoto pack and another outside in the school lobby using Kino lights. I definately got my shots. I just need to pick the best 10 out of the bunch I have.

Next class is Monday so lets see how that goes!
