PhotoNetCast #56 – The Art and Business of HDR Photography, with Trey Ratcliff

On this episode we have with us Trey Ratcliff on a long but inspirational conversation about the art and business of HDR photography.

Episode #56 is (finally) out.

On this episode we have Trey Ratcliff as guest, the one of THE HDR tutorial, talking about his progress in photography and his story from his initial days in HDR to the recognition, trust and respectability Trey has in the HDR world and photography in general.

Besides the normal topics expected from a conversation in HDR photography, we also dip into business models and how a profitable business can be created from HDR photography.

This was a very inspiring conversation and one I’d really recommend you to take the time to listen. I’m sure you’ll take something out of it that you can apply on your own vision, creativity and photography journey in general.

I’ll also take the opportunity to thank Trey, the co-hosts involved in this episode and all the listeners that followed us live during this recording for everyone’s patience – we were plagued by technical issues at the beginning that delayed the recording by much longer than it should have.

App giveaway

We have some codes for Photo Verse (iPhone) and PixelSync (iPad) to share with our listeners. If you’re interested, send us an email stating the name of the app you are interested in on the subject. A week after the show is published we’ll randomly select the winners.

For now, enjoy the show…

2010 is here and well under way. Hopefully, you’ve invested some of your time on planning your photography projects and setting some goals for the year. If not, no worries, you’re still on time  you should really do at least some thinking.

And with planning and goals and all of this, the ubiquitous subject of budget should also be one of your considerations.

Are you planning to re-invest a percentage of your income on your hobby / business? Do you have a certain piece of gear that you’re planning to buy this year?

Let’s put in numbers. How much are you planning to spend this year on photography (gear, workshops, books, prints, etc.)?

Below are some options that I’m hoping cover the majority of our listeners. If not, feel free to use the comments and share some numbers.

Also, if there is something specific that you’re planning on getting, share with us. Hopefully, the results of this poll will provide for some good discussion on one of the following episodes of PhotoNetCast.

Here’s to a great photographic year!
