Upstate Meeting Monday September 26th, 2011 6:30pm

The next Upstate meeting has been lined up!

It will be hosted by David Junker, Monday, September 26 at 6:30 pm at Muse 10 Photography Studio in the FishEye building near downtown Greenville:

802 Augusta Street
Greenville, SC 20605

(overflow parking next door at "The Front Porch" and the empty lot beyond it)

The meeting will be a "Show and Tell" of images and will allow those who participate to show off images they are proud of and get some friendly suggestions and encouragement. 

You don't have to claim the images if you don't want, but it's OK if you do and want to speak about it or tell the story behind it. There will be a panel of "judges" available to moderate and give unbiased feedback regarding photographic issues.  THIS IS NOT A PRINT COMPETITION!!! It's simply a great way to share your work, and be inspired by work that your fellow photographers are doing.

We MUST encourage one another and help each other grow both creatively and technically in order to strengthen the professional photography industry, and this is one great way to do that!

We plan on getting started at 6:30pm.
PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN TAILGATE TYPE CHAIR OR FOLDING CHAIR.
We won't have enough chairs available at the studio for everyone, so grab a couple if you have them so that those who don't may use one.

You may also bring snacks to share if you would like.  Drinks will be provided.

Everyone is encouraged to submit up to 5 images in JPEG high quality (10)format, sRGB, 2000 pixels on the long dimension.  They do not have to be prepared with borders and digital matting like print competition, although you may submit them that way if you prefer. DO NOT PUT YOUR LOGO OR NAME ON THEM!  If you feel compelled to bring printed pieces of art for whatever reason, you must also bring them in digital format so that everyone can see them projected.

Images may be emailed to David Junker, david@muse10photography.com
or you may bring them on a USB drive when you come to the meeting.

I look forward to seeing everyone again (and their fantastic images!)

Sincerely,
David Junker

Costal Meeting Monday September 19th, 2011

What would you do in a situation when the client is in "bad" lighting and this is the only time you can photograph them?  Normally we like to control the lighting in whatever situation we find ourselves, but what if we are forced to shoot in bad light?  You can’t always exert total control over every situation you find yourself in.  

If you cannot handle the above situation, you must attend the next Coastal meet on September 19 at 4pm in Georgetown presented by Jeanne Richardson.  She will demonstrate lighting the subjects in bright afternoon sun, complimenting the subject and recording image files great enough for wall portraits. 

We will meet at 4pm at Jeanne’s studio in Georgetown and immediately leave for a predetermined location where we will encounter bad light and learn how to deal with it.  Don’t miss this unique opportunity to learn from one of the most talented and resourceful pros in South Carolina.  Mark your calendars for September 19 and meet us there.  We all need to learn this important skill.
