Speakers

|
Come with Doug Gordon as he brings you on a complete journey toward taking your photography and business to the next level, in his straight-forward, straight from the heart, inspirational style. You will be motivated, educated, challenged and entertained in a program that will completely transform the way you shoot. If you love speakers who are motivational and very funny, come to this class. Come because people learn best when they are laughing; because they need a motivational message; and because they need to have fun while they learn. Learn how to take immediate action and create momentum toward becoming the photographer you want to be. What better environment is there to learn than while on the fly working outside-the-box. See unconventional, unique, edgy, glamorous poses right before your eyes. Develop a distinctive wedding style allowing you to direct a client yet capture the emotion and feel of photojournalism. There's a natural magic you need to learn to capture and shoot like two photographers, a main and second shooter. |
Rob Adams and Vanessa Joy 11:15am- 12:45pm Award-Winning Wedding Artists Cinematographer Rob Adams and Photographer Vanessa Joy have joined forces both personally (they're married) and professionally to offer a whole new line of products aimed at bridging the gap between photography and videography. Their dynamic PhVusion (pronounced 'fusion') style is taking the industry by storm with its "future of photo/video" approach and offers a glimpse into what's next in the wedding industry as technology brings wedding imagery into a whole new realm of possibilities.
