Fly'n High
Hi Guys, Just have to tell you how psych'd I am to have been named a Ph2 Associate. About 18 months ago, I made a commitment to myself that I would become THE BEST headshot photographer in the Twin Cities. In my quest, I found Peter Hurley when Googling headshots -- how lucky am I. I was one of the first to sign up on the Ph2 site, when it was still in Beta...

It was also attended by Michael Schacht, Joel Maisonet and I was assisted by Adrian...
The power of the headshot intensive
It's been almost a year since I took the headshot intensive in Chicago. It was an awesome experience that I reflect on regularly. I met some great people and absorbed a ton of information. Like most who take the intensive, I've completely dumped and replaced all of the images I had been using for marketing prior to the intensive. Like I said, it's been...

For those of you that own the DVD and also have taken the Headshot Intensive or the Headshot Intensive ONLINE I'd love for you to chime in here. I really don't want to toot my own horn too much, all...

Jaime needs some help.
I'm an LA based photog and a disciple of Peter's style and method. I am doing a corporate shoot in the middle of the month and 7 of the 9 principles from the company will be in Los Angeles.

TetherTools Veteran's Day Project
Hey guys! So TetherTools asked me to team up with them to do something nice for Veteran's Day. They want to put together a group of portraits of Veterans and I guess we'd launch a gallery of them for Veteran's day this year. We would donate the shots to the Veteran's and their families. I'd like PH2PRO photographers to go for it and submit images to Amber at...
