Lindsay Adler is a renowned portrait and fashion photographer based in New York City. It is quite likely that you have seen her teaching on CreativeLive or KelbyOne.

On July 1st, she will be conducting a free webinar thanks to ShootDotEdit. While she is a master as lighting, posing and photography, she also commands a great level of respect from her peers for her retouching, using Photoshop. Indeed, the free webinar she is teaching is called Photoshop Techniques for Photographers.

Another Free ShootDotEdit Webinar

On May 20th, the Youngrens are leading another free webinar thanks to ShootDotEdit on finding your ideal client. It's a topic that most photographers avoid until it is almost too late and then have to start from scratch. The Youngrens, suggest working on defining your ideal client first, so that you can begin serving them in a way that is going to make both them and you truly happy.

Imagine not having to take on clients who aren't a good fit? Are you suddenly awash with a sense of relief? I bet you are.

I caught up with Erin & Jeff to chat about this new webinar and why it is so crucial for photographers to identify and work with their ideal photography client. Give this short chat a good listen:

The Photographer's Shop

In addition to dispensing sound advice on blogging and business topics, the Youngrens also have a robust shop for photographers where you can buy contracts, email templates, workflow guides and schedule consulting sessions with Jeff and Erin. Coming this summer to the shop will be a self-guided “Discover Your Ideal Client” resource that the Youngrens are pumped about.
