Congratulations Dan Graham! Photographer of the Month: Dan Graham Dan was born in Manhattan, New York and began his life in the big city. But, he has spent most of his time in our amazing hometown of San Diego. After high school, Dan decided to go to a local community college where he began his interest in photography and went on to study at San Diego State. While studying journalism he began getting assignments that involved taking his own pictures to accompany his writing. At that time, Dan started to notice photography was an important element of journalism, and his interest in photography began to be an important element of his life. He got caught in the world of photography and from then on he always kept it close to his heart. However, it was time to pay the bills and unfortunately photography wasn’t a financially stable job and there were no job opportunities in that field at the time. Throughout Dan’s life, he has had a successful job, is married to his lovely wife, and recently retired, which gave him the time and desire to pick up his old love of photography. And the rest is history... Type of photography: Modeling, Weddings and Events View entire profile here Website: http://dpgphotos.com/ FlickR: http://www.flickr.com/photos/dpgsgi/ Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/groups/335110009837946/ Email: [email protected] Phone Number: 858-602-9583 An Interview to Learn a little more about Dan Graham: After recently retiring, Dan had extra time on his hands and had to take a moment to figure out what he wanted to do with the rest of his life. Such a serious life question! And it didn’t take him long to remember just how much he loved photography. He jumped on his computer and searched for photography classes (to refresh him on the art) and found an array of classes being taught at The Right Light Photography. While he started with some basic courses from Jason, he became interested in developing his photography even more. The classes were the perfect balance of informal and informative, which attracted Dan to the idea of joining the PIT program. “From then I took the might leap! Just a hobby? Or a business?” Dan exudes passion as he describes the decisions he had to go through to get where he is today. Deciding to join the PIT program, Dan describes has helped him find his niche and “find the worth in his photography”. He is proud to say he is always moving forward and improving his business, DPG Photography. When asked what type of photography is his favorite, he is quick and sure to say he loves shooting modeling and head shots. “I like taking simple, clear, and succinct shots for modeling photography.” Dan has a clear idea of his modeling style and to check out some of his beautiful photos CLICK HERE. Dan describes how, “Whatever is in the eyes is what I am shooting for. My focus always is in the eyes”. And after the attention goes to the eyes, “everything that supports the eyes gets my support.” It is clear to see that Dan loves focusing on the natural magnificence the human eyes can exude and finds that beauty in modeling photography. However, other than that he does love shooting head shots, weddings and events because he loves catching a moment and memory in photography. His favorite part of photography overall? “Creating and capturing moods through my photography...” Following his passionate answer for his favorite photography, I asked the simple question of whether he uses Canon or Nikon. Chuckling at the question, he says he uses neither! He uses and loves his high-end Alpha 850 Sony DSLR Camera. I was slightly embarrassed for assuming, but was interested in finding out why he used this camera when the industry highlighted Nikon and Canon so much. He went on to explain how he had actually worked for Sony in a different branch and his wife actually worked there also. What he loved about the brand was the reliability in their product. “The quality is there.” We went on to discuss the recent buy out and improvement of Sony. I enjoyed this question more than the simple answer of Canon or Nikon, because I learned something new! Sony is in the running and produces just as strong and crisp photos as the other leading brands. I went on to ask about his favorite piece of equipment for his Sony Camera and he was glad to respond with his Karl Zeiss 24-70mm lens. “95% of the time that’s what I am shooting with, especially with low light. The focusing is phenomenal and the colors are vivid.” As if he hadn’t convinced me enough about the great aspects of Sony, he delves deeper describing how the image stabilization is inside the Sony camera body and not the lens, like other brands, giving him the ability to use his old lenses, which he enjoys using also. Finally, I asked Dan the ultimate question: Where he saw himself in the future of his photography business? “That’s a good question,” he responds. He goes on to tell me about how he would like to at least be financially viable enough to still be in photography doing head shots and events. However, the most important thing to him is that he does not want lose his desire for modeling photography. Overall, he is not focused on becoming the next billionare photographer, only on enjoying and sharing his extreme passion for photography. To continue buying equipment and growing, he understands he needs to make profit for his profession, but his true focus is on modeling and capturing the moments and memories for his clients. He ends with a fitting line, “Photography is a medium. It captures the essence of that person or that moment in a beautiful way.” Thanks again Dan for an amazing insight into your obvious passion and love for photography and congratulations again on being this month’s Photographer of the Month!

Therefore, we are starting the ‘Photographer of the Month’ chosen by the Right Light Photography giving the spotlight to those in our photography community that deserve acknowledgement for their contribution, photography style, and business. Once a month, we will be sharing a BIO, interview, and everything that is special about our chosen photographer! So, keep your eyes open for our monthly photographer of the month and help me introduce our first… Photographer of the Month: Kendra Stoner Born in Wyoming, Kendra grew up in a creative family, which started her love for the arts. She remembers her dad and her going out with his film camera to the pastures. They would find “these old run down shacks where people had moved west and deserted them” and would take pictures of them together as they wandered. As Kendra grew up, she formed a love for all types of dance, which brought her even closer to the arts and is part of the reason she believes she has such a good understanding of bodies and shapes in her current photography. While in Wyoming, she met her husband who was a marine and fell in love. When he was stationed in San Diego in 2007, Kendra moved gladly with her husband and packed up all of her creativity and brought it with her too. She found a need to express her creativity when she came here and re-found her love of photography. Now, having been married for five years and in San Diego for four, she still is very close to her family and that brings her the true passion she has for shooting family portraits and capturing those loving moments. Type of photography: Military home-comings, family portraits, baby photos View her entire portfolio here Website: www.kreativekapturesphoto.com Facebook: www.facebook.com/kreativekaptures E-mail: [email protected] Phone Number: 1(307) 421-8182 An Interview to Learn a little more about Kendra Stoner: Being such a success and enthusiast AND having such a creative background, the first thing we wanted to know was how Kendra got started up in the photography she does now. She explained how about three years ago, a friend asked if she would do her a huge favor and take photos of her husband’s military home-coming. Fully equipped with Kendra’s favorite point and shoot camera, she did this favor for her friend that sparked a passion. She continued taking pictures and found this was everything she wanted to do! She decided that she wanted to start taking it seriously and her husband saw the love she had for photography and bought her the Canon 60-D she uses today. He told her, if she was going to take it seriously he wanted her to do it right and that is when she became a member of the PIT Program. With the program, she worked with Jason Kirby to mold and improve her photography and her honest amazing business, Kreative Kaptures Photo. In her field of photography, she focuses on family portraits, military home-coming and baby/newborn photography. As explained in her bio, she always was close with her family, which makes family portraits one of her favorites. She exclaims, “I could shoot family portraits all day!” We asked what she loved about this photography she did and with true love she responded simply, “Capturing emotion.” She explained how in the homecomings she has the chance to see and capture so much raw emotion and affection and she loved shooting so many candids of such beautiful memories. As a photographer, there is one of the most important questions that just needed to be asked: Are you a Canon or Nikon? And in typical fashion of a true enthusiast, Kendra simply said, “I love my Canon 60-D”. With photography, there are so many pieces of equipment, we inquired what her favorite piece was and she was quick to reply that her 50mm 1.4 lense was her everything, giving her great depth of field and always producing fantastic photos. To end this lovely peek into Kendra Stoner, we wanted to know what the future held for her. As she leaned back in her chair and thought with a smile, she described a life where she would continue doing the job she had now full-time. She wanted to still be involved in the photography world and wanted her company to develop more and be a household name in capturing these memories. All she wanted was to be able to continue capturing and sharing memories with people. Overall, Kendra showed an extreme love and passion for what she does and a promising future in photography. This is why we are happy to name her our first- Photographer of the Month! Congratulation’s Kendra! By: Lauren Lopez
