Today we get to know the adorable Cheryl Cronin (seriously---she is SO sweet) who transfixed me enough to convince me to drive to her home to do an on-location PHODcast---unprecedented I must say. However it was so well worth it - not only to hear about her interesting history and to visit her amazing home, but for all the coffee she pumped into my system :)

Something a tad different this time around - Athena Blude´ came in today for a chat despite her apprehension about her being so new to the biz and fearing 'nothing of value to say'. I felt however, that her perspective could be not only refreshing but helpful to others who are starting out in this sometimes confusing business.

Mr Thomas Morlock of Vantage Point Films sat down today for a chat, as the very first videographer here on the PHODcasts! Its especially interesting to hear how photographers influence how and what he shoots. Oh yeah - and we discuss bad special effects too--- "Cinderella Champagne Crapola effect"

And so finally - we wrap up this series of live podcasts from Inspire Boston 2010 with the folks behind the event itself: Matt & Enna Grazier. If you've listened to any of the proceeding podcasts you know the general feel that this event has produced among the attendees - so I will just let them do the talking. I also want to thank them again for allowing me to do these podcasts at kind of the last minute (like 2 days before is when i think I mentioned it) , as well as congratulate them on such a successful conference! Looking forward to 2011!!!

I luckily had the amazing opportunity to sit down with the ever-inspirational Eric Laurits during the Inspire Boston closing party. Eric has had quite an interesting past that has brought him to where he is in photography today.
And remember kids, be careful where you place your commas.....

Peter from Monin Photography - one of our final Inspire interviews - gives a little perspective on starting out recently in the business and what the experience of attending their first Photography Conference was like!

Nancy Faria of A New Outlook Photography in Falmouth Ma, sits down for a bit late in our first evening of podcasting, and gives a really neat perspective on a topic we have yet to cover here on the PHODcasts - Gay Weddings

The always lovely Candice Dowling Copploa of Jubilee Events is my first full-length PHODcast in months! And it was a joy to sit down with this talented wedding planner to get things started again. It is also great to get a fresh, non-photographic view of the wedding biz. Excuse my slightly clogged sounding cold-riddled head during this one.This is a rather long talk at nearly 75 minutes---once you open that Chardonnay and you never know WHAT will happen!!
