Once a listerv. Now primarily grants and a photo conference. Always a community.

GET IN ON THIS — We’ve sent out about 50 koozies so far! There are about 100 left though. And there are several women’s SMALL Make Photo Great Again T-shirts found in the box, too.

If you want to get in on this, instructions are on the second photo.

Yo APAD, remember #GFDenver when we had the launch party for Weird Sports (the original) and #GFPhilly when we had a Rocky impersonator and the launch party for Weirs Sports 2?! Come celebrate book 3 with @solneelman in Brooklyn on 4/1 (no joke!). There will be monster wrestling!

BROOKLYN, NY — APRIL 1 — BE THERE

My good friend - and everyone's favorite weirdo - @solneelman is having a book launch party @BellHouseNY for More Weird Sports (aka Weird Sports 3!). There's also going to be Kaiju Live Monster Wrestling too!

I hope to see you there!

@alyhazzaa @FlakPhoto Hopefully your greats include more than just white men.

Another piece of Sony gear is getting shipped out. Glad to see all this stuff finding good homes with photographers who I know will put them to great use. Still got a few lenses (including my fave the 135!) and two A7R3 bodies (in great condition) left. https://t.co/wlzepFcxVE

[Melissa Lyttle @melissalyttle]

📸 I took a little break from selling camera gear over the holidays. But I’d love to clear out my camera bag and closet to make room for the new stuff. So, if you’re looking for Sony gear the list is of what’s left is at the link. Make me an offer. https://t.co/cKt7DmNMdZ 📸

[Melissa Lyttle @melissalyttle]

I mentioned my friend Sol in this week's newsletter. For those that don't know @solneelman... you should. And for those who don't have any of his books yet... GET ON IT! Seriously, Weird Sports 3 (aka More Weird Sports) just published and will be shipping soon. And it's AMAZING.

📣 Got a DM from a fellow photographer looking for someone to consult with on SEO for their website. Ideally, they're looking for someone who does this specifically for photographers.

Any recommendations?? Please reply here or DM me and I'll gladly forward them along. 📣

Hey photo friends, If you have a magnetic board or strips of metal that you storyboard on (move things around with magnets), I'd love to see a photo for inspiration and hear what you used.

Please drop a reply here if you'd like. I'm looking for ideas for my office. Thx!

On Jan. 6, as a mob of Trump supporters stormed the Capitol, the official White House photographer wanted to document the sitting president because it was "very important" for history.

And unsurprisingly, her instructions were clear: "No photographs."

@PeuserRick @dappergentleman @melissalyttle @ARodInTheNews @TestudoDave @NWS_BaltWash @NWStornado @capitalweather @7NewsDC You seem fun... I bet you think bands should just give their music away for your enjoyment, movies should be free to stream because it'd make you happy, books should be free because you like to read, and restaurants should just offer up plates of food because it looks tasty.

[Melissa Lyttle @melissalyttle]

There it is!

Can a single photo can change the world? Nick Ut would argue: YES. https://t.co/VC2Uk1PUzW

There are some good suggestions for managing a business in this thread.

Hey if you’re self-employed or a freelancer, what app/service are you using to set aside taxes, manage accounting etc? I’ve been using @CatchBenefits but it’s been on the struggle bus recently. :-/
