Recent Educational
Events
David
Ziser and his "Digital WakeUp Call Tour 2009" were at the Marriott
Buffalo/Niagara on Apr 9th. David is a generous and inspirational
teacher with over three decades of experience in the photography
business. I saw him in the Buffalo area in 2006 at a similar event. His blog is called Digital Pro Talk
and is read daily, by thousands of photographers all over the world.
After his program, I had the opportunity to talk with him briefly and
have this photo taken of us (David Ziser is on the right).
******************
Tammy Wolfe and Tamar London are inspirational speakers and talented photographers. Their studio, London Wolfe Photography, is based in central Pennsylvania. Their two day program,
which took place in Webster, NY...just east of Rochester, covered a
variety of topics. They presented a very informative, and entertaining program. Although they came from different
backgrounds and have very different personalities, they have combined
their talents to develop a successful photography business plan. I'm
glad I attended.
