Are your wedding assignments getting a little repetitive? Have a passion for something else you want to photograph but aren't sure how to go about it? In this presentation, you will learn the secrets and principals I've used to get the gigs I've always dreamed of shooting and how I've kept them.

Here are what peple have said about Bria's past speaking engagegemts.

Brian Friedman made a mid-career switch from corporate day-job to professional photographer by using a combination of methodical planning, personal relationships, and a little luck. His success story is inspiring to all photographers at any phase of their career. - David Bergman  (look at david's site www.davidbergman.net)

When I heard Brian (our PUG leader) was speaking at our NY PUG group, I was amongst the first to RSVP.  On the surface, Brian's talk promised to be a sexy presentation about rock n' roll and a-list celebs, but minutes in, I realized his talk was so much more.  Simple but potent advice, to propel your career toward the areas of photography you've perhaps been too timid to go after.  Real life ways to get there.  And the lesson of setting both specific goals and a realistic timeline for your journey.Brian generously shares his shooting philosophy. He blends his positive life outlook and his business goals well.Congenial and warm, you root for Brian's continued success, yet you also feel motivated to go after your own.-Brooke Ismach (www.studiobrooke.com)
