my presentation at PPAM …
It was an honor to be invited to be a presenter at the convention held this past weekend by the Professional Photographers’ Association of Massachussets (PPAM). The 4 day convention was held in Natick, a city just outside of Boston, and I had a 3 hour segment on Sunday afternoon. My presentation was a scaled down version of my workshops on flash photography techniques.
The response afterwards was tremendous; numerous people thanked me and congratulated me, and I even got several “best presentation of the convention” comments. Not only was that gratifying to hear these comments, but also to see that there were actually more people at the end than when I started the presentation.

Here’s a compilation of a few images, mostly of the time during the break when I was chatting to people in the front. It seems I can’t keep my hands still when I talk.

Thanks, Neil, for coming to PPAM. Your seminar was filled with easy to follow info on flash control: bouncing flash off of “things”, color correcting the flash when mixing light sources and fill flash that works. What else do you have to teach? Too bad they didn’t have you talk for a full day.
Please send your presentation notes, as it will help me review my own notes.
PS: you looked like a rock star during the break!
