Featured Speakers The Peters Family www.petersphotography.com

The PETERS FAMILY has successfully owned and operated Peters Photography since 1972. With three separate studio locations in Ohio, the Peters family has learned what it takes to manage a photographic studio enterprise, and enthusiastically share their hard-earned knowledge with other growing studios.

KAREN PETERS will explain the basics of running a studio – from setting pricing, to managing a staff, to the day-to-day operation of the business. While most photography courses focus on photographic skills, this session will provide the hard-to-find answers to your questions about daily studio management.

BRIAN KILLIAN is well known for his expertise in lighting and posing. Brian’s skills are unbelievable in feeling and seeing the portrait before it is shot. He will lead you through various set ups and concentrate on the full explanations of his many faceted types of photography. He does not overshoot and does not have to fix pictures in the computer after the session. He gets it in the camera and moves on.

JANINE PETERS KILLIAN will then focus on the family and children’s photography market, which is currently Peters Photography’s fastest-growing market. Janine will provide valuable insights into past successful promotions; popular background sets, props and poses; and how to fill the studio appointment book year-round. She’ll also share her unique and successful approaches to building long-lasting relationships with clients. You’ll see her in action during a recorded studio session – observing how she encourages even the most difficult poses from children with her cheerful and disarming manner.

Finally, LARRY PETERS will share his extensive experience with marketing and sales – and show how he’s made Peters Photography a leader in the industry. As an instructor for over thirty years, Larry will give you practical, easy-to-implement ideas and processes that can immediately impact your bottom line.

This three-day seminar is full of guidance, concepts and ideas that will ENERGIZE you -- you’ll go home with a marketing plan and management advice that will benefit your studio for YEARS to come.
