Speaking at BizConf in August

This August, I’m going to be doing something a bit different. Obie Fernandez and company are putting together BizConf, a small business conference in Florida. The conference is focused on sales, marketing, contracts, and legal matters—check out Obie’s description for more. To spice things up, the more straightforward biz topics are being mixed up with a few other interesting things, one of them being photography. And that’s where I come in. I’ll be doing a photo bootcamp of sorts. It’ll be equal mixes of business and fun—all focused on photography and the camera.

As to the shot of me they’re using in the rotation on the website... They put out the call for materials and head shots while I was in a really busy period and I think I must've mumbled “check out my photos on Flickr.” Of course they picked out the super emo shot. Too funny. Don’t worry, I don’t take myself anywhere near that seriously!

This is one of 187 blog posts on duncandavidson.com. If you care to read more, two posts I recommend are Dear Speakers, a set of thoughts for public speakers that I pulled together in March, 2009 and Tilting at the Windmill, One Last Time, a call to Flickr to include important EXIF and ITPC metadata in the photographs they provide to the public.

Oh, I dunno. If I were a biz conference organizer who wanted to push the diversity of their speaker base, including ar-teests :-) Well, that's the picture I'd pick as well. But yeah, mighty humorous.

NIce, and I thought An Event Apart was expensive. :)

Gahh and Haah. I can't believe they choose that photo, you look so "hard core" :) You need to do one of these up on the left coast sometime.
