Great Day Fishing in Western New York

May22
2010
Leave a Comment Written by KerryG

I absolutely love coming out to Western New York and usually try to get out for a little fishing while out here. We had fair day fishing on Thursday but today we went out and just nailed it! With yours truly taking the top count at 26 fish with a combination of Rock Bass, Small Mouth Bass, and a Northern Pike. Dan took second in count but edged me out on species count with 23 total fish with several Large Mouth Bass, a few Small Mouth Bass, a Sun Fish, and a handful of Rock Bass.  Here are a few camera phone pics from today’s trip.

While East Aurora, New York has become somewhat of a second home for me the past few months I haven’t ventured out away from the village much. Tonight I was treated to dinner in Buffalo at Shanghai Red’s on the waterfront. Great view, great food.

Now Offering Willowbook Sequoia photo albums

I have really been struggling with trying to find the right balance of quality and price for photo albums for my clients and have finally decided to make the WillowBook albums the primary album product that we will be offering clients. The sample album just came in and I am quite impressed with the quality of the images, the binding, and the leather cover. This is a nice quality album at an affordable price point.

Pricing for these does depend on how many pages and images are used but a typical album (10″x10″) with 24 sides and up to 50 images with the leather cover and two lines of imprinting will run $525.00 and the 12″x12″ version will run $650.00. Additional pages can be added at a cost of about $15 per page.

In this episode, Kerry and Aaron discuss the current trend of “transparency” and putting yourself “out there” and how this is changing how we communicate with our clients and our peers. This is a very interesting discussion. For more of Aaron’s The Big Picture video blog, go visit http://aarondieppa.com.

Guest on Aaron Dieppa’s The Big Picture

For those of you who haven’t heard about Aaron Dieppa, he is an Orange County photographer who came up with an insane idea to try to do a daily video blog for an entire year. To say that he has taken on quite a challenge is an understatement but he has been doing a great job so far.  Be sure and check out The Big Picture at http://www.aarondieppa.com for all the back (and future) espisodes. This week however, I am thrilled that Aaron asked me to be a guest on the show and we talked for quite a while about Camera Dojo and the industry, so much so that he needed to break it up into three shows.

Here is this today’s episiode featuring me as the guest.

Met with David Ziser at WPPI

Feb20

1 Comment Written by KerryG

I have been away at the large WPPI conference for Wedding and Portrait photographers and managed to have one of the biggest moments of my photography career to date! Every photographer I know has at least one person that they look up to and would give anything to sit down with for even five minutes. For me, this is was David Ziser.  David is a leading wedding and portrait photographer, a master of lighting, a phenomenal teacher, and an avid blogger. David’s blog is at http://digitalprotalk.com. While at WPPI I was not only thrilled to meet hm in person for a brief moment after his amazing talk about lighting, he then invited me to sit down and “talk shop” which ended up lasting about 90 miutes.  I had a very pleasent time with David and his wife LaDawn.   To add to that, Syl Arena from http://pixsylated.com also dropped in. I can’t wait to see David again in May for his Digital Wakeup Call seminar that is coming here to Irvine.

New trixbox CE book finally finished

Oct16
2008
1 Comment Written by KerryG

For some people writing a book may be fairly easy, but for me, writing a book seems like a monumental task, especially with a project like trixbox CE that changes almost on a daily basis. The first book was supposed to be about Asterisk@Home and was almost finished when AMP became FreePBX with a bunch of new features and major sections of the book had to get redone. Just as I was finishing it up AGAIN, Andrew called me to tell me that it was changing to trixbox with a bunch of new features, and again, major sections of the book had to get redone.

This time was no exception except many times it was ME making decisions about trixbox CE that would dramatically change things I had already written for the book. It’s one thing to be at the mercy of someone else, but when you are causing your own grief, its that much worse! The first book was a good overview of trixbox and came in at 148 pages. The new book, as yet unamed, is a very detailed dive into trixbox CE and its inner workings, along with maintenance, troubleshooting, and security sections with a page count of over 340 pages. Its finally over and done and time to take up a new hobby in my new-found spare time.
