Under Construction

I'm sorry to say that my blog links are broken now because I'm moving my website which broke all the links. I hope to have this resolved within a day or two at the most, and at that time I will also be hosting my blog on my own website.

Thanks for your patience!

The Longest Day - WPPI Video

Happy New Year everyone!

Some of the wedding photographers that I admire and strive to learn from were recently involved in a 24 hour challenge to create an online reality video for and about photographers. This reality show is the “appetizer”, if you may, for the 2009 WPPI(Wedding & Portrait Photographers International) Convention and Trade Show.

There were 24 photographers who were split into 2 teams, each representing a different charity. The charities are Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep and ThirstRelief. The goal was to make a short film on photography and include a public service announcment for the charity. These shows will be voted on and the winning production will earn $3000 for the charity it represents, while the other production will win $2000 for its charity.

If you want to know more details please visit F-Stop Beyond. Ron Dawson, professional videographer, is the creator of this reality series.
