How Much Should I Charge For Photography? Jul 19, 2015

Show notes

I had 2 questions come in this week about how to charge for photography. One was for commercial work and the other for prints. These are two different things, but oddly enough the answer is pretty much the same for both. So lets sit down today and talk about pricing, money, perception, cost and risk… And a cameo by Judy my cat at the end.

Lightroom Mobile Jul 07, 2015

Show notes

Lightroom Mobile is quickly becoming one of Adobe's strongest offerings. The Creative Cloud 2015 Updates have been some of the most important CC updates that Adobe has released and mobile is a key part of this. Adobe have been working hard at how we use mobile and the integration with the desktop apps is probably the best that I've seen period. In the past I've viewed mobile imaging interesting, but only suited for Instagram or other social media sharing. Lightroom Mobile has changed that for me.

High End Art: Everything You NEVER Wanted To Know Jun 28, 2015

Show notes

Richard Prince recently stirred up the photography/Instagram world when he controversially modified Instagram photographs as his latest work and sold them for upward of $90k a piece. Does this blow your mind? Possibly make you angry? Well get ready. In this video I’m going to give an overview of how the high-end art market works. The art market has become very attractive to investors in recent years for a variety of reasons. According to Bloomberg, this has snowballed into a global $54 Billion industry. Who are the artists? Who are the investors? How does this work? These are some of the questions I will try to answer in this video. The art market is rarely discussed in the media unless there is a lawsuit. I think that’s why its important to have this conversation. When it comes to huge money, very few of us understand how art as a business actually works.
