Jim Everett - Photographic Artist
My love of photography goes back to when I was ten years old. I was given my first basic camera, and I took as many pictures as I could afford to get printed. Over the many years, I have studied, practiced, traveled the world, and refined my work.
My work as a photographer
When in Australia, I worked with weddings and portraiture. Landscape, nature and urban was purely for pleasure. Since coming to California in 1993, I have sold prints and been included in exhibitions. One of these was "Distinctive Artists of Southern California", a four-month display at LAX by LA Department of Cultural Affairs (click to view).
Recently I have been photographing interiors, utilizing non-intrusive techniques with available light only. Click here for an example of a newly renovated hotel, and here for an example of a classic cinema.
Media, print and appearances
I am a regular contributor of articles for the Photo Marketing Association, have featured in their InFlight promotion, presented to consumer audiences at Photo Expo 2010, and created video material on photography for PMAITV. I was featured in three 10-minute TV spots on G4 Tech TV with Leo Laporte, have been interviewed on Shutterbug Radio, and have given several interviews around photography on Sirius Radio. Earlier this year I gave two main stage presentations at the Photo Expo in Anaheim by the Photo Marketing Association - Photographic Art, and Digital Storytelling.
My iTunes podcast - Digital Photography and Artistry
I publish a video podcast which now has thousands of subscribers. The theme is simplifying creative techniques and demystifying digital photography, so that creating satisfying imagery is within reach for anyone. Last year, Apple featured my iTunes photography podcast in a worldwide promotion for iTunes, called "Learn From the Pros".
