Thanks to +Chris Chabot +Frederick Van Johnson interesting show tip… Or interview with Chris for you.. Reshared post from +Chris Chabot Introducing Snapsation Amongst the greatest human needs is the need to tell stories, to record memories, and to share our moments with the people who matter the most to us. When you need an awesome dating profile picture, a business portrait, photos of your family reunion or milestone events. You need an amazing local photographer to help you to capture all of  life’s moments. As a local business you want to show off how amazing your restaurant is, the decor in your Bed and Breakfast, to show off your beautiful store or great new products, to record your industry happenings and events. Finding a photographer is intimidating. And harder than it should be. Photographers need customers. No matter how experienced a photographer is, there never seems to be enough time to focus on getting new customers. And for the many passionate and talented amateur photographers looking to begin making money of their passion, knowing how to market themselves or find opportunities can be overwhelming. Finding customers is intimidating. And harder than it should be. It doesn’t have to be […]

Info from +Reed Timmer – Probably one of the better info sources since he is on the ground chasing the terror…. Originally shared by +Reed Timmer Devastating tornado tore through Moore, OK earlier today.. described by KFOR-TV as worse than May 3, 1999. Latest report is 24 children lost their lives in an elementary school in Moore, OK. I am at a loss for words… This is about as tragic as a tornado can get. Our thoughts and prayers are with those that lost everything with this tragedy. Here is video of the tornado taken by the Basehunters showing how violent this tornado was. And this supercell spun up so fast the warning was not nearly as advanced as the more long-track May 3, 1999 supercell. Thank god for Jon Welsh and Chopper 4 and the rest of the chasers on the ground providing as much warning as possible for this tornado. 5/20/13 Moore, OK Devastating Tornado I sent a text message to a teacher friend of mine asking her to get everyone south out of the path, and she responded and said she and the kids had to ride it out and was the only option. Just heard and […]

The reason I shoot glamour work started with working with local models that you might not take another look at in the normal day, transforming them into something even they do not recognize is the best part of the hobby for me. No better compliment than hearing – "Is that me?" Nothing wrong with an ego boost here and there… and there is nothing better than a compliment on your own work when you know you have worked hard to produce a good product. Are you on +500px drop over and vote and I can follow your work there also… Interesting in Glamour or Model Photography? Drop a comment below and I will add you to my Glamour Photographer Circle….I share it our from time to time to build that community here. And thanks to +Trey Ratcliff for his latest set of Lightroom Presets that have been a blast to mess around with.. They are available here: http://store.stuckincustoms.com/tools/lightroom-presets?acc=c0c7c76d30bd3dcaefc96f40275bdc0a – and are very resonable if you are getting started and need a good preset starting place… Also to +Frederick Van Johnson and +This Week in Photo (TWiP) and our new community: https://plus.google.com/u/0/communities/112428840126057106947 For keeping the notion of photographing models alive – […]

I think I like the changes.. I am not sure I like the specific changes each time as much as I like Google's willingness to continue to innovate and change… Let the complainers continue to complain – being uncomfortable is not a bad thing… so many think working and dealing with things, even day to day things that are outside of your comfort zone is bad… Really.. I love it… When I started shooting stuff like the below, I was afraid to even talk to girls…! I fixed that issue…. stepping outside your comfort zone and trying new things is very important in day to day life…
