Hello team orange

First, I would like to thank Josh for all his work already. This blog is great. I check in every day. I have been reading every post - I feel like a blog stalker. Finally getting around to posting a comment. There has not been anything to add, since Josh is so comprehensive in all his posts. Please read his posts carefully, because it will prepare you for a great weekend. Melissa Lyttle's post covers just about EVERYTHING to expect. I noticed that it was already 49 degrees in Sullivan county at night this week. It is true- I have seen snow and 80 degree days in the Catskill mountains on the same weekend-so bring clothes to layer up.

I am so impressed with our team of photographers. Really strong work, with personal style and vision. Can't wait to meet you all in Jeffersonville, NY.

That said, I am happy to look at your work and make comments, if you need, before we get to the workshop. I agree with Josh that it does not matter how you show your portfolio, but it should reflect your passion, and the quality of the prints or files should be excellent.

The only thing that I do not recall seeing mentioned are promotion or business cards. I think it is a good idea to have a "leave behind" card since there are so many people to meet and you want people to remember you. Once again you want the quality of your work and professionalism to be evident even in the card you leave behind. I like cards with a picture. I remember pictures better than names. I also think it is a good idea to have your location on the card- that is how I hire people and how most photographers are hired. (Of course, that is after someone knows what you have to offer by your signature style.)

That's all for now.
