Hey there! This week we looked at your candid family photos and they were lovely. Chelsea is sassy on tequila this week and it was great. Justin was drinking sambuca and that is gross.
Tony chose a confusing password in reference to War Games. No more guessing!
Next week the topic is wedding photography because that works for me.
Let’s start off with some photo news:
- sdp.io/LRPS $89 deal for Lightroom and Photoshop
- Tony switched back to iPhone! Traitor. “Your old phone was like trying to hold a fish.”
- Apple Drone!
- GoPro Karma crashes!
- Nikon D5600
- Nikon headcount reduction
Let’s get into your photos. I’ll highlight our picks here:
- beach family
- “uncle Tony”
- sad ice cream
- kids in leaves
- Lightyear ears
- “I just feel like her name is auntie Cathy“
- happy baby
- beach kids “like they found a dead body by the train tracks”
- Troy!
- Interstellar tesseract
- kite
Over to me for some of your questions:
- suggestions for the live show
- Chicago Tribune vs Sun-Times
- Thailand! First and possibly only photography workshop.
Time to look at a portfolio! Beautiful photos, great eye. Include contact info, pricing, some way to hire you. But if you’re trying to market yourself, you’ll want to lead with your marketable work instead of your artistic photos.
Here’s my cat peeing.
Back to me for a question:
- how to get started with bird photography without spending all the money? Get a 300mm zoom, a bird feeder and a bird blind. Here’s a few videos to help you get started. “The video has helpful information if you can get over my jacket.”
- “Robots put me out of business again!”
Now to chit-chat! Our favorite segment where you say dumb or funny things and we enable you:
- Chelsea’s camera strap is a guitar strap. She doesn’t recommend it.
- Tony is the Mr. Rogers of photography
- +1 for Tony’s chill
- Tony was indeed there for the boudoir video
- “old guy looking younger or a young guy looking older”
- is Tony and undercover superhero?
Back to your photos:
- our girl Brittney killing it again this week!
- “I was reaching for the P myself”
- “why didn’t you guys tell me my booty was so fly?”
- “I wrecked that outhouse”
- hotel del coronado
- swim kids
- bread makers
- “In some cultures, when they dog is old they take it out to sea“
- “babies gone wild”
- beach punks
- laughing
- backlight
- photo album
- gross, gross baby
- tree house
- horse face
- beach babes
Back over to me for some questions and comments:
- dream feature for camera tech on a smartphone? Camera to phone transport. Telephoto lens capability. Aperture control.
And right back to photos:
- “always keep your family photogenic”
- too cool for school
- sad baby
- “this photo reminds me of Siobhan, because she wants white guys to stop talking”
- musical family
Back to me for a question:

I feel the need to point out that it was Tony’s idea to fly the drone inside. It is so loud. But no one died, so I call that a success.
“How are you gonna land it?” “I’m not, this is my life now.”
“That was stupid.” “I wanna do it again!”
We scroll through the remaining photos before we head out. And that’s our show! Next week we’ll look at wedding photography because I said so. Byyyyyye!
