Recently, I met Peter Lik and Michael Fatali, two of my favorite master nature photographers.

Today at the WPPI Show here in LV, I briefly met Jerry Ghionis, an award-winner portrait & wedding photographer. What a nice guy, and even more impressive: completely helpful and honest about his tricks / techniques. How do I know this? Because I bought one of his PicPockets. These are awesome – they’re basically flash cards for photographers in tough lighting situations, etc. Each discloses the situation, and what camera settings were used to get the shot on the flipside of the card. As I’m frequently on tight deadlines, these will undoubtedly be a huge benefit for me as a shooter. I think I thanked him at least 3 times, and I’m pretty sure he knows he’s appreciated, since I said that at least twice.

Be sure and visit Mr. Ghionis’ site. You’ll be glad you did if you appreciate great contemporary portaiture.
