Who Are We?

If you're reading this, I invite you to join our Photo Allies community. Unless of course you did a search for 'lazy rabbits who hop on one leg' and somehow came up with this blog lol. So I got a few questions for you guys.

I'd like to know who all of you are, what part of the world you live in, what you're doing in photography right now and finally where you want to be in five years (ie. major goal you have in photography). Don't forget to put your website link up so we can check out your photography.

My name is Greg Clarke. I live in Huntington Beach (silicone capital of the world), California. I have a degree in photography and art history from the Savannah College of Art & Design (Savannah, Georgia). I just recently went back to school to learn about business and marketing. I'm starting a photography business specializing in architecture (interiors and exteriors). Five years from now, I want to be shooting modern architecture all over the world for the top architects and interior designers. My website should be up in a week to 10 days. I'll keep you posted.

Ok your turn.

I am the sterotypical "mom with digital camera wanting to be a photographer." My goal in five years is to have my own style, a reliable client base and a few children magazines wanting my services for cover shots. BTW, I feel lucky to have found this blog. Thank you Greg for the great information.

Thanks for putting this blog together for us.

I have just started my professional journey also, but I think we have both taken the first step which is to decide WE are photographers. Get off the fence and do it!

I live in the Washington, DC area and shoot a lot of special events and sports.

I am trying to share what I learn in my blog also, it is primarily about sports photography.

Bonjour! My name is Felicia S. and I am currently living, working and thriving in Seoul, South Korea. I am a native of Virginia, U.S.A I have most recently defined myself solely as a photographer as I have various projects (all paying!) that I'm working on and more than that, it's what I'm most passionate about in life, that, as well as world travel and learning several more languages. I am deciding to focus on architectural, interior design as well as travel photography. I love to shoot spaces, interiors with natural light, fabrics, etc. In five years I want to see myself working only as a photographer and writer, continuing traveling the world and writing books about my travels, complete with breathtaking photos. The book and documentary that I want to begin within five years involves The Sahara. It will happen because I can feel it and see it.

We met at SB-2 We spoke about building a mentoring group. I just heard from someone else from San Diego interested in doing the same, I put her in contact to your blog. Let's see if we can get this off the ground. Reach out to me and we can develop a plan.

I didn't search for any lazy rabbits, but...J/K!

My name is Caryn and I am from Orange County, CA. I have a degree from CSU Fullerton in TV/Film, but after I graduated, I took a job as a catastrophe claims adjuster, mainly to travel. Well, I got my wish, alright! I went to all the areas devastated by disasters, such as: hurricanes, tornadoes, hailstorms, windstorms, fires, etc. You get the idea, I hope.

Well, after working for almost 6 years, my body just gave out due to the stress of it all. So in my healing process, I have taken some art classes, like drawing and photography. I wish I had followed my passion as an undergraduate and went with photography. But TV/Film has some of the same principles, and my construction background as an adjuster has given me some new perspective on what is important as well as what my talents and interests are.
Since this is my first foray in posting a comment in a blog, I hope to learn much more about the 'business' side of, well, the business aspect.

I have registered www.catspawcommunications.com, but am just in the beginning process of writing a business plan (actually, I am in a class for it), so the site is not up...yet.

I have a flickr account you can look at:

Wow, this was a lot longer post than I anticipated, so have a great night all!! OOPS, I mean morning, now...

I have been surfing on-line more than three hours nowadays, yet I never discovered any interesting
article like yours. It is lovely price enough for me. In my view, if all site
owners and bloggers made good content as you probably did,
the net will likely be a lot more helpful than ever before.
