The Beach Workshop | Susan Stripling

PWP was honored to sponsor and help organize Susan Stripling’s most recent seminar in Pensacola Beach, Fl, at the fabulous Portofino Resort and Spa. This seminar sponsorship deal is a hard life … I must say. Here’s where I spent the afternoon taking care of Important PWP Business while I was there. The view from the 19th floor is to *die* for.

One Day Seminar - Philadelpha

A huge thanks to all the folks who made the Philadelphia seminar such a huge success. From the initial GTG on Sunday night, to the seminar itself on Monday, and a truly touristy trip up the Philadelpia Art Museum steps (Rocky, anyone?) - it was a fantastic time. Thanks to everyone who participated!

Be sure and check out the Pro Access area Seminar threads for reviews and more photos Here and Here.

Welcome Jose Villa Workshops

We’re very excited to welcome Jose Villa Workshops as our newest advertiser.

Jose, a Brooks graduate, has quickly become on of the most respected wedding photographers in the world.  He is one of the few photographers still working in film rather than digital.  His fully loaded, 3-day workshops are held around the world and provide hands on opportunities to shoot, edit, and create a portfolio for publication.

Welcome, Jose!

Welcome DQ QuiKeys

Welcome to our newest advertiser: DQ QuiKeys. Dave & Quinn Chung of Alberta, Canada, created DQ QuiKeys and we’ll let them tell you about it in their own words:

DQ QuiKeys is a unique hardware/software workflow system for Photoshop.  The hardware is a custom 57-key keyboard which is tightly integrated with actions, tools and scripts which we’ve been developing for over two years.  DQ QuiKeys essentially takes the hidden tools of Photoshop and puts them in your hands … a truly unique Workflow Empowerment System for photographers.

We’re thrilled to have Dave & Quinn on board with PWP!
