  But Why? Your Unique Way to Success
  presented by Nadra Edgerley
  www.NadraPhotography.com
  www.TheConfidentCreatives.com

  What is your “why”? When you know with confidence how to answer this question, then you understand what is unique about your business, how to approach your branding, and how to find and attract your ideal clients.

  In this business intensive, Nadra takes you on a journey to discover your “why” through a series of strategic and entertaining exercises. Together, we’ll find your values and define a clear mission statement that then reveals the direction your business should move toward to achieve real success; success as determined by you.

  When your values meet your business and your business aligns with your “why,” oh child, get ready. Life gets good! Be prepared to work, think, and dream bigger than you think you should.

  Nadra’s one-on-one coaching business, The Confident Creatives, helps photographers stop chasing the pack by defining their unique way. In our competitive industry, this saves creative professionals time, money and frustration. Learning this also rescues you from a lifetime of overworking and underachieving. Through this class, Nadra shares how to cultivate your “why” throughout your specific brand, selling proposition, and art.

  Nadra began her career in photography over 18 years ago in northern California after graduating with a bachelor’s degree in Studio Art. Nadra draws out the connection between people who love each other most in the world. She combines her art background, technical skill, and years of experience to bring out the best in others. The result is beautiful imagery that lasts for generations. Hundreds of weddings and thousands of beautiful moments later, Nadra is not only an accomplished photographer but a mentor and business coach to photographers and small business owners. She lives on the coast of southern Maine with her husband and four children.

  “Nadra made me feel confident in a big scary field I felt adrift in. She encouraged me to try out things I wouldn’t expect, and pushed me to ask for what I deserved. With her encouragement, I have tripled my gross income.”  – Justin McCallum

  Photography on the Edge
  with Jay Philbrick
  (www.PhilbrickPhoto.com)

  In this dramatic slide show presentation, Jay will describe the creative process behind the making of the images that went viral and have been televised worldwide. He will share the back story of how a local photographer became a viral sensation on the Internet and discuss the making of some of the most amazing environmental portraits you’ll ever see. He will also discuss how Philbrick Photography has managed to stand out from the crowd in today’s incredibly saturated photography market.

  Jay Philbrick is a professional, full-time photographer living and working out of North Conway. He has been an avid photographer since the mid-1970s, and since 2001 Jay has been doing all his photography digitally. He does extensive and distinctive post processing of his images to bring out the best that his photographs have to offer.

  Jay goes to great lengths to create unique and lasting images for his clients. Being an ex-Air Force pilot and climbing guide, Jay’s adventurous nature shows in his imagery. His distinct style is well documented in his images of brides, couples, dancers, and others. He often incorporates unusual and sometimes difficult to access locations with precise posing to create dramatic portraits and imagery.

  Jay’s work has been published worldwide in numerous print magazines and internet blogs and articles. His work has also been featured on television networks worldwide. He is actively sought out by models, actors, authors, pageant competitors, and others who need the perfect image that will portray who they are. He is always assisted in his work by his wife, Vicki, who is also an accomplished photographer and who has a degree in photography.

  The scenery of the White Mountains provides Jay with endless inspiration and opportunities for his landscape, nature, and adventure sports photography. He also travels to destinations in search of unique landscape and nature images. He has collections of dramatic landscape and portrait photographs from all over the desert Southwest of the United States and Europe, and he and his wife will soon be departing on another trip to the Southwest for more such images.
