San Fran North Bay SMUG

Hey, SMUGgers,

Meetup.com has been great, but we've got a brand-spankin' new home and we've just got the keys to move in. Boogie on down to http://www.fisheyeconnect.com/instructor/35... and help us warm up the San Francisco North Bay SMUG's new space over on FishEyeConnect. Just sign up for an account and you will get info on our latest meetings.

You'll love FEC because they're focused on photography. It's their mission (like ours) to connect great photographers and foster a fun, friendly, educational environment for ambitious pros. In other words, it's a match made in heaven and we hope that you’ll agree.

You can also follow the San Francisco North Bay SMUG on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/SanFranciscoNorthBa... Meeting announcements will be made their as well!

See you there, and remember to bookmark our new pages.

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.

Things to Expect at a SMUG:

You Learn: Guest speakers will light up the room with their wisdom for shooting great images and making money with photography.

You Talk: Make contacts and connect with other pros in the know. Monthly meetings set the stage for infinite opportunities.

We Listen: SMUG leaders stay in close contact with SmugMug and share your requests and gripes with our team. We also love photography as much as you, so be prepared to spot a Smugger at your local meeting.

Things You Will Never Do:

• Open your wallet: Save your money for new gear. SMUGs are free.

• Sign up for anything: There are no commitments, no requirements and no vacation timeshare offers here.

• Hold hands and sing Kumbayah: We love ya... but not that much.

"As I said, very informative! I feel that I am well on my way to learning what I need to know so I can go out and do my own photo shoots and not look like an amateur. Steve absolutely has been there and done that.…"
