Jeremy Saffer & Gage Young Photo Workshop Highlights!

I had the opportunity to head to NJ this weekend to attend the workshop that Jeremy Saffer and Gage Young put on. Things started Saturday Morning at 10AM with a whole lesson on every aspect of being a photographer in the music industry. From how to book shoots and get photo passes, to learning how to do follow up with a client and to get paid for your photos!

Sunday brought the heat and the hot weather. I'm glad it didn't rain. That would have definitely but a damper on things. Here's some images from day 2 of the workshop - getting to shoot the 2 guest bands ourselves!

I know we all had a great time over the course of the weekend. We had some awesome thai food from a local thai restaurant that was right down the street. The syndicate building had so many good locations to shoot at and we all got some great pictures to take back home with us. To wrap things up, Gage showed us some of his editing techniques and how he comes to a final edit with his photos. Most of all, we all got to do some great networking with other photographers. It's about helping each other out and learning from each other. Each photog there had their own personal style and experience. It's great to see what we all do when we shoot. No one shoots the exact same way.

If you get a chance to go to this intense workship, most definitely hit it up. Both of these guys have a lot of experience and have done so much work in the music industry. Their input is invaluable. I have learned a lot over the past couple workshops, It's been a great resource for me.
