Workshops and Joe’s New Book

adorama_workshops

If you’re in New York City on May 20th, I hope you’ll come to my seminar at Adorama Camera entitled: Sports, Music and That Inauguration Photo: Separate Yourself from the Pack — An Evening with David Bergman

I’m going to show my work and tell the stories behind many of the photos. Registration information is available on the Workshops@Adorama site.

Special thanks to Nikon for sponsoring the event. Adorama’s Monica Cipnic has done a wonderful job building up the live programs at the store and they offer something for everyone.

I’m also in the planning stages for a separate, all-day workshop that will allow a small number of photographers to come along with me on a portrait shoot from beginning to end. Look for an announcement in the coming weeks.

Lastly, a “must-have” photo book is Joe McNally’s new one: The Hot Shoe Diaries: Big Light from Small Flashes.

He certainly doesn’t need the plug (the book is currently on backorder at Amazon), but if you have any interest in using flashes like the Nikon Speedlight to create and sculpt light, you’ll love the stories in this book. Joe’s book The Moment It Clicks was a huge hit last year and might tide you over until your copy of Hot Shoe Diaries is delivered.
