Shut up n’ Shoot! Tour

September 30, 2008

Hey guys! I try to keep my site free from advertising so that when something really great comes along you will think it is as awesome as I do. This is straight from the One Photo Source website. I frequent their forums all the time. I have learned so much from them in the few months that I have been lurking around on there. I think you should all check out this site as well as attend this awesome workshop! You know I will be there!

Thanks again!

What is “shut up n’ shoot” about? It’s about getting out and doing, not just talking about it. Our workshops presented by Shawn Reimers and Bruce Mayhill are designed to give you “hands on” experience. We don’t believe in all day lectures just to sell you a product at the end. Rather, we believe in getting out and shooting on location with a selection of models to give participants actual hands on instruction and training. Classroom instruction is fine for college students, but photographers need to shoot in order to further their skills. Tired of talk, and want some action? Then our workshops are for you.

“Shut up n’ shoot” is part of the “freestyle photography workshop” series. Freestyle implies that your “free” to break the rules. Whether it’s our freestyle weddings, freestyle lighting (free light) or freestyle senior workshop, you know the rules, now let’s break them. Since the age of digital photography, there has been a drastic change in the way we photograph. We’ve been liberated from the expense of film and can now try poses and lighting techniques that we never thought we’d do at the expense of “wasting a frame”. If your tired of talk, and ready for some action, our workshops are the right place for you.

What is “freestyle”?

It’s breaking the rules and tradition and liberating yourself to photograph your subjects based on the creative person you are. We take you beyond the traditional and into a creative world that brides and seniors are looking for today.

Offered Workshops:


Freestyle Wedding Photography seeing beyond the traditional


Freestyle Lighting (free light) using a blend of natural, parabolic, video and speedlites


Freestyle Seniors you need to offer something different and extraordinary in this day and age to attract a senior client.

Cost: $195 per participant

PSA forum members receive a 10% discount on all workshops and products.

Okay, so I cant really write much right now. But I promise to later tonight.

Dave and I have been pretty sick the past few days. We got food poisoning- eww- so I wasn’t able to go to my friends wedding to take pictures, and I couldn’t go to my other friends house to take infant pictures. UGH! But I was able to reschedule the infant pictures, but not the wedding. Gosh Mary Ann, thanks for not rescheduling your wedding around me. HEHEHE! I bet it was beautiful and amazing, like she is!

Oooh I get to shoot my senior rep this weekend. I’m super excited. I can’t wait. She is a rad chick (who says rad? Am I aging myself) and I can’t wait to get her pictures!

2 quick things. I dont post about things like this ever, well at least not on here. But there was a plane crash this past weekend that severely affected DJ AM and Travis Barker, and killed Travis’ assistant, the pilot and the co pilot. Although this does not affect me personally this hits home because I know/knew people who are related to Travis’ ex wife. Anyways… keep them in your thoughts because this is a sad story for those who passed away because of this and the family that they left behind.

On a lighter note.. I thought I’de mention a cool giveaway that’s going on here. It’s for a cute little bag. I love the pin up joey bag and if you try to buy before I can then I might be mad at you.

I’m thinking of having a few little contests on here. All I really have is scrapbooking supplies that are pretty awesome, but I’ve been making some other things so maybe I’ll do those as giveaways. Not sure yet.

Hope you have a great day. I’m just hoping to make it through the day because I want to go home and work on some christmas cards.

XOXO
