Lighting and Portraiture Tutorials

Scott Strazzante, Street Photography

I’ve been following this guy on Instagram for quite some time.  I’m constantly amazed by his work. Scott Strazzante, street photography hero.

Frank Okenfels

Just wanted to share this with you.  There are so many self-proclaimed photo gurus out there pushing their workshops and books and blogs and “critique shows,” but have they really earned the hero-worship bestowed upon them?  That’s for you to decide.  As for me, I’d rather listen to a true artist like Frank Okenfels talk about anything photography.  This is where it’s at.  Thanks, camerabag.tv, for making this available.  Still love watching this.
