Stephanie Anderson of Tahoe Unveiled recently appeared on the Today Show in promotion of her “A Day in the Mountains” vendor-client event. She not only invited me to speak at her gathering, but also featured on TV one of my recent Lake Tahoe wedding pictures from Angela’s & Jeremy’s lavish and fun-filled celebration. Big thanks to the event coordinator and darling couple!
‘Ted’ Wins Art of Photography Contest
Awards, From The Studio, Press 1

I just got word over the holiday weekend: Digital Photo Magazine honored my photograph – Ted, Tasmanian Sheep Farmer – with a first-place award in their Art of Photography Contest, Environmental Portraits category. If you are looking to gain recognition and connections within the imaging arts community, submitting your work to contests is crucial—but be selective.
Study the images from a competition’s previous winners; determine what types of photographs win with this judging panel. Is this a conservative judging panel with a preference for classical imaging? Do the competition judges tend to celebrate innovative digital effects?
It might seem like obvious advice: “Know to whom you’re submitting before you submit.” But, as a competition judge myself, I’ve seen far too many worthy art works go to the wayside, only because the image didn’t match the criteria for the submission.
Use your time and energy strategically. Make sure your hard work has the most appropriate platform to arrest a judge’s attention and awaken others to your gift for the art of photography. Happy hunting!

Indeed, an entire industry developed around her sparkling engagement ring, luminescent gown, and momentous procession down the aisle. I decided it was high-time to shake things up a bit. For a recent photo shoot, I trained my focus on the oft-neglected groom. And it was a blast.
