Let me introduce you to Photovision, a video magazine.  I’ve subscribed to this for the last two years, initially because the price was right. I continue the subscription because it’s an excellent way to see how other photographers work.

It’s kinda like this: I tend to do mostly portraits, landscape, and light architecture, with some product shots thrown in for good measure.  These videos put me in an excellent position to view baby photographers, senior photographers, and other specialists as they work.  There is technique to learn (the picture below is based on some of their portraiture), as well as a great deal about business.

Interested in getting into the business?  This is a good way to get started.

If you’re interested, they currently have their annual subscription on sale for $39 a year (that’s six 2-hour disks, one every other month). Regular price is $149 (I’ve never paid that, but I’m told it used to be common until their sponsors started picking up a lot of the tab), so it’s quite a discount.

For forty bucks, why not go for it?  Go to their site and enter “PVFAN” as the special promo code.

Relevant disclaimer: if three people follow that link, I’ll get the next year’s subscription comped.  So I do get something out of you signing up, but it’s something I’d happily pay for anyway.
