This year was my second to attend the Texas School of Professional Photography. Texas School is one of the PPA’s largest affiliate schools, with nearly 1,000 photographers in attendance. The week long course is packed with information, parties, and a huge trade show. One instructor for one week, and I chose John-Michael Hannan who turned out to be a great choice. John-Michael very quickly moved us from the classroom to more true to life locations. He also proved to be very entertaining (like showing how NOT to adjust a dress). I had a great week, and because John-Michael’s style is very different from mine, everything we did resulted in a lot of learning and perspective. For example, location lighting became very simple, and I’ve already begun using his techniques.
On the way home, I spent a considerable amount of time with former PPA President Robert Lloyd and my fantastic instructor from last year, Bry Cox.
