Success Can Be Yours!
dwfIf you’re having a ho-hum day, stop yawning and get some inspiration right now. The DWF Success Forum is where pro photographers celebrate their successes large and small.

It’s uplifting, enlightening, and daily  proof that there is success going on in professional photography. Whether it’s a magazine publication, or a client signing the contract, we truly hope you’ll post YOUR success.

 

Lighting Guide: Just Published!
dwfHeidi Anne calls this the book SHE would have found most valuable in her quest to understand studio style lighting.

We’re proud to announce that DWF member Heidi Ann has just published her first book: Lit- Lighting Sketches from the Workbook of Heidi Ann. “Lit” features 78 of Heidi’s signature fashion forward images, with 14 sections demonstrating historical “looks” including Old Hollywood, Off Broadway, Throwback to the 70's, and Avant Garde. 'Lit' will give you the confidence and permission to go out and just play with light.

 

Everybody's a Photographer. Really!
dwfHere’s one we’ve never heard before. A DWF member meets with the client, and as a counter-proposal the MOB says "cut the price, and I’ll serve as your second shooter.” What in heck do you do with THAT?!

DWF members, as always, offer quality suggestions to deal with a startling situation.
 

This Gives us Goosebumps

dwfIt’s winter. It’s cold.

Which means Goosebumps. Lots and lots of goosebumps. Goosebumps that are damn hard to remove from a picture. Let’s go to school and consider how to smooth out an icy cold senior’s leg.

 

See What DWF Members Really Look Like

dwfYou read their posts and see their little bitty avatars everyday on the DWF. Now see your fellow members' large-as-life headshots in the DWF Portrait Forum, as members reveal the headshot images they use in their work and on their websites.

Lots of members are posting their headshots: You should too..

 

Is Your Web Contact Form Working?
dwfJust a heads-up: Some accomplished pros have been wondering why they’re not receiving inquiries lately.

In the words of one, “I thought it was kind of quiet!" There was a good reason that it was so quiet. Read on..

 

Which is Harder: Children or Weddings?

dwfThat’s the question DWF Pros are batting around in the Pro Portrait Forum: Whether it's harder to shoot a wedding or a children’s portrait session.

Before you blurt your answer at this newsletter, recognize that this newsletter will not respond to you. But DWF members who’ve branched out their businesses, will. Click the link below and consider all of the angles..
