What others are saying:
Dane is a talented photographer, but coming from an Academic background, he’s a also fantastic teacher. But the real value is in spending time with Dane and learning to understand the core of running a REAL business for yourself. I have been in business now since 2001, and I was scribbling notes like a mad person during the workshop. What’s special about Dane is not only is he an artist, but he’s a sharp businessman. Not all photographers are like that, and if you want to make photography your business, its important to learn.

The Dane Sanders workshop exemplifies everything that I love about being part of this [photography]community. On top of that, just being in the same room as Dane and having access to his unique perspective on life is an experience all in its own. To spend a weekend with a such a group of supportive people, facilitated by one of the kindest most unique people I’ve ever met, was an amazing experience. The “business” part of the workshop focused on many things including: viewing your business from different perspectives, marketing, organizational skills, utilizing the tools available to photographers and so much more.

The Baltimore, MD based PUG (Pictage User Group) did things a little different this month. We ventured out to Wendy Hickok Photography for our studio spotlight. It was a great sucess. Wendy shared how she handles the client experience during the initial meeting. She has a fabulous set up in her home that converts to client space when necessary. She is, indeed, the Hostess with the Mostest by offering yummy food, drink, and conversation before they even discuss the wedding details. Later, she casually brings them into another room that displays her work and albums. She had some great tips for organizing each client she books and unique marketing materials throughout the process of the client relationship.
Thanks you, Wendy, for opening up your space to us very inquisitive photographers.
Our next studio spotlight tour is with Michael Clark Photography in Baltimore, MD on March 3, at 7pm - whenever. Come meet Micheal and the rest of the PUG crew. We love new faces. We'll post additional information closer to the date.
