Missouri Photo Workshop

with 3 comments

I am currently in Missouri at the Photo Workshop in Festus/Crystal City Missouri. We are flushing out our story ideas and making our rounds through the town.

I have two very good instructors, Kim Komenich formerly of The San Francisco Chronicle and Carolyn Cole of the Los Angeles Times. The students are all awesome people and we are all feeding off each others energy and motivation.

Dean and Dan

I hung out with Dean and Dan Caten last week, the designers of Dsquared2 clothing, before they got their star on the Canadian Walk of fame.

Today’s Post ran my photos on the Weekend Post Section front page and a story inside.
