Last night, the Oklahoma City SMUG met in the Paseo District to practice low-light shooting. Those that arrived early enough also peeked inside Visions in the Paseo, a photography-only gallery currently showing works by Greg Davis, one of my personal favorites. The owner, Glenn Filmore, was kind enough to stay open late for us (thank you so much)!
We had several new people, which is so fun! Welcome! The neighborhood was somewhat sleepy since it was Thursday night, but there was enough action for us to shoot around the area for at least an hour.
Some of us stayed late to grab a drink and a bite to eat at one of my OKC favorites, Picasso Cafe, where we pondered the mysteries of life – including whether video will kill still photography, the health of Steve Jobs, why some photography clubs fizzle and die, whether a Red Video Camera will cost less than an iPhone does now in ten years, and whether the print-business-model is dying. We didn’t necessarily solve these questions, but we, as photography nerds do, had lots of fun trying.

See you all next month, with Bill Richards demoing off camera light at sunset.

About Holly Baumann Photography
I am Holly Baumann Ambuehl, a commercial & portrait photographer based in Oklahoma City. My blog posts include client work, photography tips, food, wine, travel, and personal posts. Please visit and comment often and let me know what you think!
Once, I was just an adventurous young soul with a camera that loved to travel, but over time, that passion evolved into a full-time business! There is no job I’d rather have!
People are usually nervous when they hire a photographer. They worry that the photographer will be cheesy, intrusive, or won’t “get” their projects. They may be nervous that the results won’t fully capture their vision, or be generally disappointing. I understand all of these things, so I will work hard to earn your trust. I will get to know you, ask questions and listen to your goals and expectations. We’ll plan outcomes together. On location, I’ll put you at ease; plus, we’ll have a lot of fun!
My clients benefit from my boutique service model. I don’t seek a large volume of photography jobs. Rather, I provide my undivided attention to one client at a time, which allows me to provide consultation as needed, fully research their project, and then deliver their images in two days (or less).
I am always honored when clients trust me to capture their vision. I hope we'll have an opportunity to collaborate, become friends, and hopefully, develop a long-term partnership. Let’s talk! – Holly

I was totally there!
I forgot to mention that I wrote a post about the gathering as well. You can find it here: http://wp.me/peSO7-sy
Looks like you had a great meeting and photo op. It was a pleasure showing you around Visions and hope you and the rest of your club stop by often.
