NPPA Workshops - The Business of Photography
Not only do we all know a colleague in our photographic community who could use some business counsel, but a refresher and new perspective on the business of photography could benefit you as well. To that end, the NPPA has put together an amazing day of workshops - the NPPA Business Blitz, which kicked of at the beginning of June in the DC area, and is now traveling the country.
How much? $10 ALL DAY (NPPA members) and $20 (non-NPPA members)
So, encourage your friends to go (send them a link to this) and let's get people focused on the business of being a photographer!
