I have the most EXCITING news that I’ve been wanting to share for almost a year!  Nielsen Photo Group, who owns the big photography tradeshows like Photo Plus Expo in NYC and WPPI in Vegas, and publishes PDN magazine, has launched a new website for aspiring photographers called ShutterLoveOnline.

Almost two years ago, Nielsen approached us about being one of their spotlight photography personalities to provide consistent content and photo tips for this new website.  This invitation is a complete honor, especially when Art Wolfe (one of the most amazing nature photographers of our time) is one of the other photographers they approached.

Wanting to share this wonderful new platform, I asked Nielsen if our CONFIDENCE Teachers could be contributors as well.  They said “Yes!”  Our section on ShutterLoveOnline is dedicated to moms and called Shoot with Confidence.  Click the drop down “Tips and Learning” and you’ll see our section on the far right!

I’ve been working with our fourteen, amazing teachers for several months to prepare posts that will inspire you, empower you, give you new ideas, make you laugh … wait till you see!  We are so excited!  As you read our teachers’ posts and get to know them, you’ll see even more why Brian and I are so proud to have them on our team!  Now you don’t have to wait for a workshop, you can start learning from our teachers today!

The first four posts are up now with more to follow every week!
