Wow.  Things are really heating up here in our Austin studio.  We now have three very well reviewed books available:  The first one:  Minimalist Lighting.  Professional Techniques for Location Photography, is still a best seller on Amazon.com since it was published over a year and a half ago.  If you need to know more about working with battery powered strobes on location, this is the book for you!  Our second book, Minimalist Lighting:  Professional Techniques for Studio Photography, is the follow on book which takes a lot of the techniques showcased early and interprets them for use in the studio.  This is the book you need if youre ready to set up a small, home studio or a real, professional working space.  It will also help you to improve your lighting without blowing your budget.

Our third book is my favorite.  Entitled:  Commercial Photography Handbook, it shows you how to choose the kind of photography youd like to pursue, covers advertising and marketing, using proven techniques that are still working for us this year, and covers the basics of whats required to be in business.  Reviews have been wonderful and, what amazes me is people who are leaving the reviews.  A National Geographic veteran, the head of one of the countrys largest college photography programs and more.

Weve also gotten the workshops off the ground.  In September we did a great lighting workshop at the University of Texas Journalism School for the Texas Photographic Society.  In October we hosted 42 people for a day long workshop that covered both interior and exterior lighting.  I am available to speak on lighting and marketing anywhere you need me to be.  

Our blog is gaining new members everyday at www.visualsciencelab.blogspot.com .  

The market for professional photography is tough but its not impossible.  Get armed with good information!  If you have a question for me please post to one of the forums.  Ill get back to you as fast as I can.

Remember, there is no magic in photography, only the messy intersection between art and physics......
