Just a comment about packing gear when going on a shoot…
I have a denim jacket that has a lot of large map pockets (the pockets inside the jacket). It’s great for carrying lens and other stuff when I don’t want to carry a camera bag.
Hey i love your podcast, but lately its been really disappointing. I mean great your doing workshops, but i keep downloading and listening to shows that talk about how much fun your having at a workshop, and dont really provide me with any real content thats going to help me shot any better.
Please.. have this show be about the tips and not about what your doing in you life.
P.S. It would be great to get a different sponsor sometime, Godaddy’s getting a little old..
I enjoy hearing the REAL life stuff. It allows me to think of Chris as a friend and not just a teacher. As far as the workshop talk goes it makes me wish I had attened one. Can’t wait until next year. I think Chris will be surprised to see his number increase for next year workshop. I’m still pulling for Ohio.
I am pulling for OH as well. Even better, Kentucky! And I promise not to yell “GO BIG BLUE!” (unless someone shows up with a U of L shirt.)
Of course the tips are why ppl subscribe to the show, and I’m sure now that the workshop tour is over (for this year, anyway) that’s what the show format will return to mostly.
I like the variety (but then I’m involved with the workshops…)!
And hope you guys can make it to one of the next ones. It is a great teaching tool.
@Andrew: “but i keep downloading and listening to shows that talk about how much fun your having at a workshop, and dont really provide me with any real content” - No real content? Did you actually listen to the show?
Hmmmm, even in the formal setting of a university you find out a lot of information about the people in the classroom - the students, the prof, etc. Learning is more than stats and numbers - it’s people.
Can you image taking studio photos without the human factor - the laugh, the smile, the stance???? It would be a pretty dull photo.
No, Chris, keep everything just as you got it. There is something special here that shouldn’t be changed.
