How to Build a Photography Portfolio That Gets You Hired

The gap between "good photographer" and "hired photographer" is almost never about skill. It is about presentation. Thousands of talented photographers never get paid because their portfolio does not communicate what they do, who they do it for, or why someone should trust them with a job.

How to Get the XPan Panoramic Look on Any Digital Camera

There’s a lot of talk about the Hasselblad XPan, usually centered around the price and the mystique behind that panoramic format.
