Master your tools for better photographs

Captured with a Long Exposure technique and converted to monochrome using Silver Efex Pro 2
Photography is a journey. My journey started when my mom handed me a camera when I was about four years old, and said “look through this window and push this button.” I was hooked. For me, the best part about photography is sharing memories and creating art while learning new skills and new technologies.
Today I’m offering part of that story to you as a free download of Field Notes: A Photographic Journey. Field Notes was, by far,one of my favorite photography eBooks to write because I got to share my personal experiences about some of my favorite photographs.
I hope you enjoy your journey, wherever you may find yourself along the path of photographic creativity.

I offer the most comprehensive set of guides to the “big three” Nik Collection plug-ins available, including:
You’ve probably read by now that Google is no longer going to update and maintain the Nik Collection. While that’s true (and disappointing), the plug-ins are still a great set of (free!) tools that deliver professional results, and I will continue to use them until they stop working on my computer. My guess is that the plug-ins will continue to work for quite some time until changes to Photoshop or computer OS become significantly drastic. In the meantime, you can get any of my three PDF guides for free through July 1st.
