Bring your favorite prints for our March Print Competition
Learn from Loma Smith a fine art photographer from West Linn who creates wall portraiture for families and graduating seniors.
Loma Smith has been photographing families and children for over 18 years. She's designed a working studio,which enables her to be a stay-at-home mom with her son JP, new husband John Weber, and college step-daughter Kyra. Her daughter Sarah has just graduated from Seattle Pacific and is pursuing a career in nutrition. Loma's passion for life and people comes out in her artistic photographs, which emphasize emotion, natural light, and creative composition. Loma's love for photography expanded while studying composition and lighting under Ansel Adams' colleague Milton Halberstadt, professor emeritus at the University of Oregon. She studied photography and design at the Cornish Institute of Allied Arts in Seattle, Washington and is currently in the process of qualifying for the honored title of Master Photographer. Her image "Out of the Primordial Stew," was recently given the court of honor award from the Professional Photographers of Oregon.
Loma has exhibited in galleries in Portland and central Oregon and has several images in America's prestigious Loan Collection. Her photographs have been featured in numerous publications through the years, including most recently I Am Not a Prophet, Therefore I Know by Mark C.Hughes. She is a central Oregon native and has a business in Bend as well as her studio in West Linn. Loma is an active member of the Professional Photographers of America where she has received fourteen national print merits.

Practical Hands-On with ColorChecker PassPort, Wednesday March 10th at Gary Hush PhotoStudio. Only $5!
Mark Fitzgerald, of The Digital Darkroom and author of several books will be presenting. Mark has a brand new Canon 5D and will only have had a ColorChecker Passport for 2 weeks, so his presentation will illustrate how easy (or hard) this product is to use. However, Mark is a great presenter and (we think) can help convey the ColorChecker Passport work flow process quite well. Mark will also cover why JPEG and RAW files don't look the same, what is DNG and why it is important,and using the profile presets that come with LightRoom and Photoshop.
Gary Hush Photo Studio is at 2211 NW Front Ave. # 301, Portland, OR 97209
I'd like to share how I've automated my event photography work flow so that clients can be photographed, proof and order in just a few minutes. I'm using some standard technology and some custom technology that I wrote myself:
- Shoot tethered with a Canon 5D connected to an iMac
- iMac runs EOS Viewer and EOS Capture, software from Canon
- Custom Applescript re-sizes the original image into a proof and thumbnail then copies them to a folder on the web server
- Three computers allow clients to proof and order using a web browser in minutes
- Proofing and ordering is customer software that I wrote
- Web server on the PC is called XAMPP
All the details including images are posted on my blog page.
