See that number up there? If you call it you will not get an Indian tech support representative...you won't receive a solicitation from your credit card company for an awards program...and you won't get a male escort service (...for now).
For the first time I'm--OK, maybe second time...for the second time I'm willing to candidly share whatever I know via iChat video/phone consultation. If you are just starting your wedding/portrait photography biz, now is the time to pick my brain about branding, Look Books (ever wanted to see the whole thing???), the complete story of how I got started [unrated and uncut version], developing your eye, why I don't use Photoshop, what really happens on the Mammoth Men trips [again, unrated and uncut version] and other tales of how to be...well...interesting. Anything is game.
If you're even thinking about dialing digits, do it fast. I'm only accepting 5 more phone consultations at $250/hour. Email me at fred@fredegan.com with the subject line "We Need to Talk" and tell me when you want to pow-wow. If you ever thought it would be nice to have me in your back pocket as a friend, this is a good start in getting to know each other...just sayin'. Also, I'll dish out my iChat screen name so you can hit me up in the future with little nuggets of curiosity.

I am dying to take a peek at a Look Book. the consult is so worth it on the otherhand, knowing myself, I would spend just an entire hour yappin' about the weather. And the conversation would end with Fred just telling me to get a life!

You definitely need to do a post now on your post processing. You can't just leave all of us poor photographers out to dry. :o) What do you do, Fred?

I'm with the others. Sounds like an awesome chat, but money is an issue. No Photoshop? What do you use? Capture One? Aperture?

Would love to chat it up with you on iChat, but it isn't the cards for me right now. But what a great opportunity for the people who CAN take advantage of this right now. Everyone should have a Fred Egan in their pockets. :)

Glad to hear the photoshop bit, gives me that much more respect for your work. I think it takes too long anyway, I am a recovering user myself.

Man I wish! Sounds like a great opportunity but Money is a big issue right now. What stuck me is that you do not use Photoshop! What do you use? Also over the last 2 years of reading your blog I always wanted to ask about your equipment, Nikon or Canon?
