Roberto Valenzuela on "Tiny Talks" for Photographers

An after dinner grab shot with Colin Pierson, Sheila and Roberto V.

For years I've talked about the best part of the photographic industry having nothing to do with photography, but the friendships that come out of everyone's love for the craft. Our friendship with Roberto Valenzuela is a perfect example and he, along with Profoto need to be on your radar. If you haven't seen my good buddy in action when he's teaching, check out this under four minute teaser, "Tiny Talks", from Profoto USA.

The image I pulled from Roberto's galleries above is especially fun for me, because Roberto captured/created this image here in Sarasota, and we had dinner with him the night before. He talks about how he lit the shot in this video. We're both "foodies" and I have no idea how many conversations we've had over dinner!
