No BS – crazy and fun!
At the Windsor International Photo Seminar, I had the pleasure to hang out with James Hodgins and Rob Provencher. These guys are warped–plain and simple! Not only do they have successful portrait/wedding/commercial studios, they LOVE photography and simply have a blast making pictures. They are anything but SERIOUS and they have an entertaining and effective teaching style with zany videos but incredibly inspiring work. Check out their recent post from their first day in Windsor! and way they always carry a point-n-shoot (Canon G11).
They also have a website called No BS Photo Success. These guys know marketing! They know how to build a photo business. Even if you don’t shoot weddings, or portraits, or commercial work, they lessons they teach really hit home for any kind of photographer. I am super excited to try out some new things I learned from Rob and James in my own business.
Best of all the boys totally reinforced why we do photography–for fun! Often photographers are way too serious. It is refreshing to see talent, inspiration, education and humour go hand-in-hand. These guys are my kind of people!

It looks like they also thought I was a decent bloke as well. Thanks guys for the great time!

this is too funny, great to see people have a sense of humor, life’s just way too short to be serious all the time.
thanks for sharing this
