A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

I have been getting contacted nonstop by Kevin Micheal schmitz's sales reps, and every single time they're quoting outrageous prices for workshops that are spread out across the world.. they've tried to convince me to go into debt for them and they will not stop contacting me. Obviously they need me to sign up & do these workshops! Today after blocking the 15th number they found a way to get a new one and call me with a discount, 2k for a in person chat on zoom 😩 I'm wondering if any of you have been experiencing these kinds of sharks or if any of you have taken these workshops yourselves. The fact that they are lowering their prices tells me they're getting desperate.. You know if the stalking and constant calls aren't telling me that already haha but if you guys have done this or have good information or a review for me, I'd truly appreciate it. They are truly hunting me down and telling me how great Kevin is, but I'm very careful with my money these days and in the economy 2k for zoom calls seems to be excessive to ask.. I mean the audacity?! Hahaha

I make good enough money but I'm in Dallas, Texas and everything is crazy expensive right now 😩 I do mostly weddings and major events and that pays some bills. These guys tried to tell me it'd be ok to go into credit card debt for them and said that if I take these workshops I'll somehow start getting a crazy amount of higher paying work, half the time they ignore that my market is wedding/event because their workshops are all geared towards fashion photography, which I don't really do because it never really pays and you have to be very well connected to get higher paying jobs.

I really want to see REAL reviews from people who have done these who aren't sales.
