Tip of the Week: Networking
As photographers, we focus on the photography side, but sometimes forget the other side of developing new relationships. Here are a few ideas:
- Develope your own Network such as Twitter or Facebook.
- Be active in whatever networks you are involved in.
- Get a mentor, as you will learn from their experience.
- Follow up with the people you meet.
These are just a few ideas to start building your network. For more ideas, and a indepth discussion of social networking, join us for our “Mastering Social Networking” workshop with David Saffir on March 10th for part 1 and March 17th for part 2. Cost is $109 for both sessions.
New Workshop Series added “Child Photography Master Class”
Join well-known child photographer Autumn Hull as we present the Child Photography Master Class. This is a five-day workshop covering absolutely everything you need to know about the business of child photography, including the business plan, marketing, branding, studio lighting, practice sessions, digital workflow, basic and advanced retouching and designing with Photoshop.
The best part is that you can customize this workshop to learn just what you want. You can sign up for each day individually and only pay for the days you attend. We keep the class size small, so you will always get all of your questions answered, and you won’t get lost in the crowd. This series will be held at SCV Center for Photography.
