SAN FRANCISCO, CA, May 27 (MARKET WIRE) --
liveBooks, Inc. (www.livebooks.com), the leading provider of customized
portfolio websites and marketing software for professional photographers,
has announced a free, three-part webinar series about composition with
world renowned nature photographer Art Wolfe.
In the "Art on Art" series, Wolfe will share insights from his 30-year
career as a photographer and discuss points of view, focal lengths and
lighting on June 10 at 11 a.m. PT, July 6 at 3 p.m. PT and Aug. 4 at 11
a.m. PT, respectively. There is no fee associated with the webinars;
participants are asked to register by visiting liveBooks' webinar
calendar and selecting the session they would like to attend.
"Over the years, I've come to learn a number of tricks that can really
make an image pop, create a sense of drama and help viewers connect with
the subject," said Wolfe. "I hope to pass along some of that knowledge
during this series and help other photographers view their subjects in a
new light."
Wolfe is best known for his photographs of wildlife, landscapes and
native cultures, and his mastery of color, composition and perspective.
He has taken more than one million images in his lifetime and has
released more than 60 books, two of which made Graphis' list of the 100
best books published in the 1990s. In May 2007, Wolfe made his public
television debut with the high definition series "Art Wolfe's Travels to
the Edge"; the first season garnered American Public Television's 2007
Programming Excellence Award and was seen by 33 million viewers.
"We are thrilled that Art has agreed to share his work and his exceptional
understanding of the industry with our liveBooks community," said Andy
Patrick, CEO and president of liveBooks. "The ongoing webinars we offer
are a wonderful way for photographers to continue to grow and learn as
professionals, and we are honored to have someone of Art's caliber joining
this effort."
In addition to Wolfe's three-part series, liveBooks' webinar participants
will also have the opportunity to attend an ongoing series dubbed
"Perfecting Your Workflow with Lightroom" this summer with professional
wedding photographer and photography instructor Jared Platt.
