eBooks Available!



I am excited to announce that I have recently published two eBooks. They are companion guides to my most in demand speaking presentations that I have been sharing across the country. I have found that as a photographer, one must invest in oneself through education. Learning about photography, immersing oneself in art and spending time looking at the masters of the past helps one to truly grow. I strongly suggest that one invest in knowledge, rather than always invest in new gear. A new lens might not make that much of an impact on your work, but when you learn new concepts, new ways of thinking or new ways to use and modify light, you will see great growth in your work. My intention for creating these eBooks is to inspire you to develop your skills and vision, while helping you develop your unique artistic voice.

My eBooks can be downloaded to a computer or to an iPhone and be used a resource while shooting in the studio or out in the field.  The first it titled “Creating Still Life Photography With A Painterly Approach”.


The eBooks regularly sell for $25 each. For a limited time, I am offering them for $20 each. To order, send me an email and let me know which book ,( or books) you would like to order. I will then send an invoice through PayPal for you to complete the payment. Once payment has been processed, the eBook will be sent to your email.

The Still Life  eBook covers

·         Using and modifying light.

·         Using window light, speed light or strobes

·         Developing a center of interest

·         Studio tips, gear, and tips

·         Working through a shot

·         Creating/ finding inspiration

·         Still Life imagery as storytelling: Using Metaphors and Symbols

 

The second eBook is titled ,”Composition: Shooting With Intent”.



The eBook takes knowledge that I have gained through years as a painter and fine art photographer. The material will help you create images that have greater impact.

Through the eBook, you will learn how to create images that effectively tell a story, communicate an idea and express a feeling. You will explore ways of using compositional strategies to create more visually impactful photographic imagery. We will break down the art elements and principles of design in easy ways to understand and apply to your work.  You will learn how to use the Elements of Art and Principles of Design to create images that go beyond the “rules” and allow you to compose in a much freer, creative intuitive way.

·         Creating images with greater visual impact

·         Using the Art Elements and the Principles of Design

·         Creating a Focal Point through contrast of tone, color or focus.

·         Using Balance and visual weight vs. rules
