Once I return Los Angeles it's back to the work of getting work. I have two portfolio's out at the moment with potential clients and a meeting Wednesday morning with a potential client I've been trying to meet for months. I've spent the last month pushing the promotion and doing the phone calls to potential clients in between my shooting, speaking and exhibits. It's very slow in the industry on all fronts, but there is work and I believe those who are diligent will be successful.
I receive a lot of email in regard to classes and speaking and for this reason I am putting together a series of workshops that will kick off next year. Starting in 2010 I will give 4 weekend workshops from Los Angeles. Please let me know your interest and what you'd like to learn during my workshops.
Shot what you love and always dream big!

Will you also host a workshop in NY?
Your work is amazing!!
I, too, would love a workshop in NY, or nearby. Your presentation at Adorama was great. I'd love a chance to really work, though.
In a dream workshop I imagine guest stylists & models working with participants. Participants might shoot in an open studio where you could come by and comment. After some PS time, a group critique would be held. It could be the same for three days...or more. On the final day some ADs would be invited to the group critique...or maybe the final day would be devoted entertaining ADs, reps, designers, etc. with a exhibit of workshop work. I'd love to be a part of that type of thing. Portfolios would be required for entrance so that participants could be grouped according to ability.
