How do organisations such as The Societies of Photographers help?
I think the true value is to reinforce what quality photography is and how to build a quality long term business.
Why is The Societies of Photographers Convention such a big deal for photographers?
It truly gives photographers a chance to become part of a group of like-minded individuals to push this industry forward.
Is it primarily about the chance to learn from the experiences of imaging icons?
I think Imaging Icons is a misnomer. It's about learning segments of the photography business from people who know concrete things that can make you more successful.
Your own mentors (living or dead)?
Jerry Ghionis, Steve Saporito, Susan Stripling, Tamara Lackey, Bob and Dawn Davis, Jen Rozenbaum
If you could pick just FIVE seminars (other than your own of course!) to attend at The Societies of Photographers Convention whose workshops would you attend?
Bob and Dawn Davis
Jen Rozenbaum
Scott Johnson
Sanjay Jogia
Steven Neeson
Kevin Mullins
David Hakamaki
Audrey Kelly
What do you think will be the next big thing in the industry?
The next big thing is the old thing and new, the explosion of print and the explosion of virtual sales, using Skype and video chat for design consultations.
Would you want your own children to take up the reins of your empire (or have they)?
Sure!
Your plans for the next five years?
Keep making photos that people love.
