A SMUG is a place where you can learn, teach and meet up with other photographers who share your passion. It's also how we can tell you what's happening in our world and discover what's happening in yours. SMUGs are a great way to connect with other photographers and add a few weapons to your creative arsenal.

    I thought Jennifer did a good job with speaking to the group at pace that kept it alive. Her presentation & info she shared was helpful with getting a better feel to this style of shooting.

    The topic was fresh and so was Jen. :~) I enjoyed hearing about her style of photography. I came out with a hand full of new ideas. The break in the middle was helpful for networking. As always, Gustovo did a great job organizing.

    Jennifer did a wonderful job, she was quite funny and witty and gave a great overview of what it take to get your boudoir clients comfortable and what it has taken her to build a successful business.

    It was my first SmugMug event. I really enjoyed the realness of Jennifer. I liked that she covered the basics of start to finish regarding her practices and that she isn't afraid to share or learn from her fellow competitors. It was nice to deal with someone that isn't just a photographer but an artist as well who really seems to love what she does. She made me feel like I could do this.

    I liked having a short break in the middle.

    Jen did a fairly good job of delivering her presentation. She could have gone more indepth on how she operates her business to make it successful. Her sense of humor carried her through the presentation where it lacked in detail. I would have liked to see more of the technical side on how to set up a shoot. This could have been handled with a few quick slides. I thought to end her presentation a 3 minute slide show of her best work would have put her on top. I did go away with some valuable information that I can use.

    The event had great participation, Gustavo was great in organizing this event and getting sponsorship that included prizes for attending. The speaker; Jennifer Skog was very personable and offered some great suggestions on how to approach her type of photography. Overall it was very enjoyable and informative.
  • Joel Carrico
    It started off a bit slow but once the speaker got comfortable she was great. Somewhat informative. As for the SmugMug group I really liked it and it sounds like you get top notch speakers! I have been a member of PPGBA for a long time but I almost like your meetings better already!

    Jen is HILARIOUS! I really liked her talk and examples and all her tips - I think speakers like her are awesome because she's funny and wise and so willing to share everything she knows.

    Gustavo- this was my first SmugMug event and it was FANTASTIC! Jenn was super as a presenter, I learned so much from her and even met my first East Bay photographers. Will definitely be coming back. Thanks!
