After months of planning and venue hunting, I’m excited to announce a new full day (11 hour day, that is!) Lightroom 4 and Epson Stylus Pro 3880/3880 Master Class. The same exact one day Master Class will be held on two different days (4/20 and 4/21/2013) at an all suites hotel in North Brunswick, NJ. It’s geared toward Lightroom users who also own or use (or who are thinking of buying) an Epson Stylus Pro 3800 or 3880.
Being focused on one primary model of printer will allow me to delve deep into the inner workings of the machines (they are virtually identical). Each attendee will leave with at least four prints output on an Epson 3800 or 3880 and matted to 11×14 inch 8-ply rag mats on the paper of his or her choice (from more than 20 fine-art paper options). It was important to me to make this a “Portfolio Workshop” in which attendees bring digital images and go home with completed and ready-to-frame works of art.
The Lightroom 4 training will be especially useful for people who are struggling to properly organize and back up their images. I will share the same workflow I use with my private consulting clients to help them get their photo collections in order so they can then start concentrating on making great images and prints.

Many of those who have been to talks or workshops I’ve done know about the GalleryPouchâ„¢ bubble bag that I use for a lot of my equipment, from photo lenses to flat-screen TVs, iPads and matted & framed prints (especially my wrapped canvas prints). Back in 2009, I needed a product that could protect large canvases (first for a client, and then for my own large gallery canvas wraps), so I asked Mark Rogers, president of Frame Destination, if he could seal protective bubble material together to make bags the sizes I needed, and he was kind enough to make me a few samples that worked quite well. Soon thereafter, his company made some prototypes, and after much testing, we found a material and a machine that could make great-looking bags up to about 50 x 150 inches in size.
Fast forward to late March, 2013. The company has just announced that it produced and sold its 12,000th GalleryPouchâ„¢ bag, and to help mark the milestone, Frame Destination has decided to make up to $12,000 in e-gift certificate promo codes available to new and existing customers. Below is a copy of the gift certificate followed by a link to the press release about the milestone and the giveaway.
