Greg Lato, one of my VMware colleagues, announced an interesting project today. Greg is a, as he states on his photography website, self-taught photographer and loves photographing basically anything. As thousands of people will be attending VMworld Greg thought that this would be the perfect opportunity to do several portrait shoots.
I think it’s a great initiative and anyone who would like to have, or needs(that’s you mr Boche), his picture taking make sure to visits Greg’s article and leave a comment. It’s free of charge by the way, so you will only be investing a couple of minutes of your time.
Recently I have been wondering if there may be more ways to cross the streams between my day job and my photographic passion. This originally started with me photographing the vSphere launch event back in April. Recently I come upon a way to extend this to VMworld 2009 while also engaging more directly with my readers.
On Friday I was walking from the San Francisco VMware office to the the garage where I parked my car and ended up walking past the Moscone Center. As I walked by my mind was in a photography mode and I started noticing how many great locations there are at Moscone for taking portrait photos (something I have been working on lately with my photography, including location lighting techniques). And guess what, there will be thousands of people coming here for VMworld 2009. Perhaps there might be a few people who either need or would like to have a new portrait photo taken in this great location? Like some virtualization bloggers who haven’t put a photo up on their sites yet to better connect with their readers. Or some of the social media users who would like to update their online avatar. Maybe just some attendees who are just looking for a different kind of memorabilia from VMworld.
