THEIR POWER
-- Joe Reifer: “A life of photography has peaks and valleys. And then there are the plateaus. Sometimes moving into the next phase of your photography can involve a lot of time on the plateau.

David Middleton has taught this class for 10 years and has continued to refine and broaden the material presented in this class. Professional Photography Workshop . Even if you’ve never dreamt of being a full-time photographer, have you ever thought about getting your images into a magazine or a gallery or a calendar? Have you thought about doing a book but you didn’t know how to go about it? Or maybe the thought of earning some money with your images has crossed your mind but you didn’t know where to start? Or you tried but your images were rejected and then you gave up. Maybe you are just stuck in a rut and you want a little inspiration. Trying to earn money in photography sure can be frustrating if you don’t know what you are doing or what the tricks of the trade are. When: August 15 – August 21, 2010 Where: Manchester Center, VT
