From PWC to Full-Time Sports Photographer

Je Vogan is a Toronto-based sports photographer. He started like many PWC parents (Parent With Camera) taking photos of his kid playing sports. After a few years, his images were being published and he was shooting for a number of international firms. He made the career pivot to go full-time and now a full-time pro. In his presentation, Je will discuss his journey from amateur to pro and the lessons he learned along the way. Je will talk about work ow that would be quite helpful to anyone who takes lots of photos. His objective of the presentation is to give attendees information that would be of value to them that they could use as they take photos. Je will speak about the gear that he uses and the software that makes up his work ow. The first time he did a large event, it took him about three weeks to sort the images. Je has since done larger events and the sorting time is effectively zero since he has fully automated the process. He will explain this workflow in his presentation.
