I’m excited to tell you that I’m speaking at Alt this year. I went to this conference last year and absolutely loved it. It’s not really geared towards photographers actually and that’s partly why I wanted to go – sometimes we photographers need a break from the insularity of the photo world. I learned so much about my business, felt incredibly inspired, and I made many a million great connections. I would encourage everyone from bloggers to photographers to small-business owners to consider attending. You can sign up here.

I’m on a panel about blogging ethics and will be speaking from a photographer’s vantage. I’ll also be hanging with the Visual Supply Co. team who are currently tearing it up with my rebrand. We’re launching just before Alt (fingers crossed)!

See you in Salt Lake City!

Our workshop is geared towards parents who are relatively new to digital photography. I will be teaching some camera basics, some of the tricks I’ve learned including how to get great results with available light, basic processing, and we will also be demoing a live shoot at Crissy Field. Here are the details:

This was shot with very little light on a typical overcast day in San Francisco. I will be teaching simple, inexpensive tricks on how to make better images.

Modern Kids Photography Workshops: Make better images of your kids

Over the past year, tons of parents asked us questions about photography, so we decided to host our very own workshops. These workshops will be fun, informative, and geared toward new moms and dads with dSLRs. All workshops are hosted at Fort Mason in San Francisco.

You will learn basic techniques for photographing kids, as well as basic digital photography tips on shooting and processing images. We will even demonstrate a live shoot. The only requirement is that you own a dSLR and have basic knowledge of photography.

Workshops are $175 and you will definitely come away with great tips and new skills for making better images of your family. I’m offering a $25 discount if you sign up by Monday, July 27th.

Join us on the following dates:

Saturday, August 8th, 9am-12pm
Saturday, October 3rd, 9am-12pm

Email hello[at]modernkidsphoto[dot]com to book your spot in the workshop. Coffee and breakfast treats will be provided.
