Bob Coates

You name it and Bob's probably shot it. Over the years he's photographed weddings, portraits and commercial work. He's also been a regular judge year after year in print competitions all over the United States. Over the last couple of years he's worked hard to redirect his business, shooting more commercial and fine art work.

But the real benefit of a workshop with Bob goes far deeper than just expanding your skill set, this year into fine art. Bob's experience as a business owner is invaluable. He's a solid resource for so many photographers in the industry and his images are all about creating a stunning uniqueness, whether the client is a commercial account or a consumer interested in his fine art work.

This year his SCU program is all about fine art, but the application goes beyond what most people think belongs in a gallery. The center image above is part of a fine art exhibit that's ongoing in a local jazz bar/restaurant in Sedona. It's morphed into not just the decor of the restaurant, but CD covers and portraits of the artists themselves. It might have started as fine art, but it's a full blown commercial application today.
