Come join Allen Murabayashi, the founder and CEO of Photoshelter.com, for a discussion about online sales and marketing for photography. Murabayashi is an accomplished photographer, internet entrepreneur, and active member of the photography community. Topics to be addressed include how to identify a market for your work, and how to connect with that market via your website and social media. 2. Sharing and critique Whether you're a member or a visitor, bring something to share. Find out what others see in your work, what people like best, and how you can improve. If you bring prints, print 'em big -- 8x10 is OK but 13x19 is better! -- so everyone can see! If you'd rather share electronic images, you can do that too. We'll have a projector and laptop at the meeting so you can show 'em off big and bright. (See Tips for Sharing and Critique.) About the Club
