Need a Photographer? Then Find a Photographer.

In need of a photographer for your commercial or editorial project, or even your portrait in Greensboro, North Carolina? Then by all means, give me a call. But, if for some reason I’m not available, or if you need a photographer in another city and you don’t want to send me, or if you just don’t feel I’m right for the job, then take a look at the ASMP (American Society of Media Photographers) service “Find a Photographer”. On the national site, there is a listing by geographic area and specialty for the whole country with contact information and portfolios of member photographers. The national link is http://asmp.org/find-a-photographer. Most chapters also have their own listings. ASMP-NC, the chapter for North Carolina members has a link just for this state at http://asmp-nc.org/Find-a-Photographer.php. In either case, you are provided with a comprehensive list of established and experienced professionals that can fill your needs in completing your next photography project.

"Founded in 1944, the American Society of Media Photographers (originally the Society of Magazine Photographers and later the American Society of Magazine Photographers) is the leading trade association for photographers who photograph primarily for publication. ASMP promotes photographers' rights, educates photographers in better business practices, produces business publications for photographers and helps buyers find professional photographers. ASMP has 39 chapters across the country and its members include many of the world’s foremost photographers." (from www.asmp.org)

PS. For all of you with IPhones, there is a Find a Photographer app available for your phone.

ASMP/North Carolina Hosts Jack Reznicki

Register and come join ASMP/North Carolina Tuesday, September 9 on the RCC campus in Asheboro, NC for a fun and informative evening with Jack Reznicki, one of the original Canon Explorers of Light.

Humor, wit, and more than a passing familiarity with the absurd have all helped Jack Reznicki become one of the most sought-after illustrative and people photographers in New York. In recent years he may be best know for his expressive photographs of kids or as he says, “Kids as kids.” Jack will go over how to direct people to get those expressions he’s so well know for. He believes the people and kids in front of your camera should not be there just to reflect light; they should actually look full of life, regardless of what type of photography you do.

Always insightful, entertainingly outspoken, and refreshingly candid, Jack will discuss in this far-reaching session, his commercial and personal work and how they interact, his vision of the future of our industry, copyright and licensing issues, and his popular “Lighting Concepts.”
