    For The Love by Barb Uil of JinkyArt!

    November 15, 2011 | Posted by Kristen the designer

    A personal and inspirational guide and adventure into photographing your family and inviting time to breathe, time to love, and time to embrace what you have. An invitation to explore your creativity, whilst also recording the moments that your heart tells you that you must.

    Filled with 160 pages of love, ‘For The Love’ is for anyone who loves photography, as it is a gentle reminder that we need to slow down, record, and remember these precious days.

    Barb takes you through her own journey of recording her family, and provides you with tasks and projects in order to inspire you to document more often. With Guides and “How-To’s” along the way, this book helps amateurs understand the in’s and out’s of taking better photographs with camera basics, whilst also inspiring professionals to embark on their own projects. Whether your a mum with compact camera, or a professional photographer, there is something for everyone.

    “This book is an inspiration for professional photographers and a gift for moms with camera’s who simply want to capture their children the right way” ~ Corinne Delis.

    Featuring interviews and work by the wonderfully talented photographers : Kristen Cook, Stephanie Beaty and Stephanie Piscitelli, as they too, lead us through their own personal projects. As well as featuring art projects and more.

    Barb Uil of JinkyArt is renowned for her whimsical photographs that depict a child’s world and imagination.  Her simultaneously true-to-life and magical work captures the very essence of childhood whimsy.  Barb has been featured in magazines and books internationally, and is a recognized name in the industry of children’s portraiture.  However, more than any acclaims or accolades, Barb would love for her work to speak for itself.

    Please visit her site here, and you can find additional information about workshops for professional photographers here!

    Karen Carey Workshop Feature and Giveaway!

    October 21, 2011 | Posted by Kristen the designer

    Are you feeling overworked this season trying to manage all of the aspects of your business? Are you losing your creative spark and missing your family because of inefficient time management or an overwhelming workflow? Are you feeling depleted and underpaid due a pricing strategy that is not as profitable as you expected? Don’t despair. Help is available and on its way!

    Karen Carey, a NAPCP member and contributor, has put together The THRIVE Workshop for professional photographers designed to increase your sales and make your business more profitable. The goal of THRIVE is to give you the tools that you need to prosper, be successful and flourish as a business owner. This is not a shooting clinic or photography lesson. This is a “no holds barred” business workshop that will change your approach to sales and help you built the profitable thriving business that you deserve.

    It is time to learn what thriving studios already know about the art of the sale. Instruction will cover a wide variety of topics related to making more money and selling your artwork so that you can get back to the business of enjoying your life.

    Last month, NAPCP Member Lena Hyde of Lena Hyde Photography partnered with Karen Carey as host of the first THRIVE Workshop at her amazing studio and headquarters of Design Aglow Magazine. Several NAPCP Members were in attendance along with other professional photographers from across the country.

    Here is what some of the them had to say about the experience.

    “This was by far the best money we have every spent on our business. We have already booked 3 portrait sessions and two weddings since being back by following just a few of your principles–that is like two months worth of work for us that we booked in about two weeks.” (Tim, TX)

    “I didn’t just make it rain….I brought the thunder. :-) Biggest sale ever by a landslide just weeks after THRIVE! (Lindsey, FL)

    “The biggest thing I took home is seeing how hard I’ve been making things for myself, trying to be everything to everyone, and how much simpler the whole process can be once you really define who you are as a photographer. Thanks again!! I was 150% thrilled with everything I took home from that weekend. ” (Steph, UT- NAPCP Member)

    “Your complete openness to us was amazing and truly different than anything I expected. You held nothing back which was AMAZING!! (Jenny, GA- NAPCP Member)

    We are excited to announce that Karen Carey will be offering a second THRIVE Workshop  in Philadelphia on January 27-29, 2012. She will host the event at her own beautiful farmhouse studio along with another NAPCP member, the very successful and dynamic Mara Blom Shantz of Artistic Impressions by Mara.

    Several NAPCP Members are already signed up and seats are going fast. Don’t miss out on your opportunity.  Register or request more information today by visiting the THRIVE website. (http://www.karencareyphoto.com/)

    Win a private mentoring session from Karen Carey!

    Karen Carey and Mara Schantz are true sales professionals committed to the promise of transforming struggling photographers into THRIVING business owners. To help spread the word about THRIVE, they have generously donated a private mentoring session to one NAPCP member!! All you have to do to win is “like” and re-post the THRIVE Workshop thread from Karen Carey Photography’s facebook page  (https://www.facebook.com/home.php#!/pages/Karen-Carey-Photography/116543845032429) and a winner will be randomly selected by October 30th, 2011.

    Additionally, if two or more NAPCP Members register together for THRIVE, each will receive a $100 discount on tuition!  So call your NAPCP friends and take advantage of the opportunity to learn, grow and THRIVE together in 2012!
