I'm co-hosting the first ever Georgetown Texas Photography Festival with the Williamson Museum March 16, 2019. Our plan is to host several invited photographers in businesses on the Georgetown square. In the historic Court House on the evening of the 15th, there will be a private reception for the invited photographers. I will be hosting an 8AM photowalk the morning of the 16th on the square and I'm excited to announce that Precision Camera and Nikon will both be in attendance to share their expertise.
Some of the invited photographers who will be featured are Harrison Funk, Michael Jackson's photographer, Earl Nottingham, Chief Photographer for Texas Parks and Wildlife, Carol Hutchison, Author of Behind the Texas Badge, Rudy Ximenez, Commercial Photographer, Todd White, Fashion Photographer, and Linda Nickell, @coznllinda on Instagram.  All the invited photographers will be available to speak about their work and give tips.
Several people have already volunteered to help. I am hoping to get many local photographers to set up tents on the square to sell their photos. Sarah J. Blankenship has been supporting the Georgetown Texas Photography Festival with her great art work. Some of the local businesses on the square in Georgetown, Texas who will host a photographer are, Mesquite Creek Outfitters, Williamson Museum, Roots Bistro, Pink Poppy Artisans Boutique, All Things Kids, Kenz Guitars and Green House Craft Food. We also want to thank CharlesDenyer.com for his sponsorship.

This photography festival is free and open to the public. If you have an interest in photography this is the place to be. You will have an opportunity to see some great photography, meet outstanding photographers and talk to the experts about anything photography.

I was honored to share the stage at the George H.W. Bush Presidential Library with Eric Draper (George W. Bush's Photographer) and Sharon Farmer ( President Bill Clinton's Photographer). Our moderator was Ken Walsh, White House Corespondent for U.S. News and World Report and author of "The Ultimate Insiders". The book is about White House photography and how they shape history. Eric, Sharon and I shared some photos and stories about our time being Presidential Photographers.

I had a great time with Eric Draper, President George W. Bush's photographer and Sharon Farmer, President Clinton's photograer at the George H.W. Bush Presidential Library in College Station, Texas on the campus of Texas A&M University. We shared photos and stories about our time as Presidential Photographers. Our host Ken Walsh from U.S. News and World Report who is the author of the " Ultimate Insiders" about photographers who cover the White House, talked about news photographers and a few of the Presidential photographers who also worked at the White House.
