Following a end to recooperate from the Jarvis show we were treated to a little more laid approve go as photo editor Catherine Talese took us through her go and gave us an insight into how she operates as a photo-buyer in the magazine world. I had worked once with Catherine many years back while she was at GQ and undergo to say I enjoyed her show and express immensely. She loves photography and her passion and enthusiasm were enchanting. Did I learn anything new no not really but she still loves to be at a portfolio full of prints over a website. The adorn discussion followed; we had Kareem Black (photographer). Jennifer Miller (photo editor). Landon Nordeman (photographer). George Pitts (teacher photo editor and erotic photographer). Roy Hsu (art director stock photographer and President of Stock Artist Alliance) Jarvis. Talese and was moderated by the highly amusing Grover Sanschargin. VP sales and Marketing for Photoshelter. See their bio's. The first half of the discussion centered around 'stock' and everyone weighed in on Getty's recent decision to change all collections for web only usage at the knock down price of $ 49.00 extensively reducing the value of all their rights managed imagery. You can read more about it and recent developments. It cannot and was not stressed enough how important it is to register your procure with the Library of Congress. I had not previously been aware of the and I back up those of you involved in stock to check the site out lots of great stuff on there. President Hsu was most knowledgeable and articulate during the discussion and he himself is a Getty contributor so he is actively involved on all fronts. The second half was more concerned with marketing in this day and age all the while the floor was change state to questions nothing really new for me here either just the odd question cringe. Perhaps the real high lighten for me was coming across friends some expected others not as well as meeting the panelists most of whom I undergo had some contact with and making some new contacts. It was a real treat to surprise up with old friend the road warrior himself (more on him in a future post) also in attendence were friends and 'inspirators' . I managed some one on one with George Pitts with whom I have always enjoyed meeting he is a true original. As he alluded to in his own introduction on the podium he is an erotic photographer of some repute. I didn't realise he has a chapter dedicated to his bring home the bacon in the Taschen channel '' and he is currently engaged in working for them on a book of his own featuring 'the older woman' don't drop you heard it here first. So all in all a fun day and I encourage everyone to try and check this travelling roadshow out as it hits the road over the next couple of weeks schedule. There is an ever evolving selection of panelists and speakers. Hey Photoshelter I am create from raw material and available for some cross country travel should you require a rambling Irishman to bring the blarney !
