Wow - The Photography Industry's Newest Resource!

Intro by Skip Cohen

Yesterday Profoto USA launched what has to be one of the coolest features yet! It's an interactive directory of fifty-six of the finest artists in professional portrait and wedding photography. With a solid foundation in education, Profoto has created an easy way for you to keep track of some of your favorite artists. When you click on any head shot you're immediately linked to the artist's website. Want to follow them on Facebook, Instagram or Twitter?  Just click on the appropriate  icon.

I just shared a post of Tamara Lackey's on Marathon's blog recently, so I made her the first "test drive" of the Legends of light. One click and I was on her website. Then three more and I linked to her Facebook, Instagram and Twitter pages. Several of the featured "legends" also have other channels like YouTube, or in Tamara's case there's a link to her Redefine Show.

​Profoto is so much more than just a manufacturer of great lighting gear - they're a leader in social media and education, and now you've got an easy way to keep tabs on a number of your favorites!
