iPhoneography at Macworld 2013

I'm pleased to announce that on Wednesday the 30th January 2013, at the Moscone Center West in San Francisco, I will be on stage and presenting along side Dan Marcolina, Jack Hollingsworth, Richard Koci Hernandez, Karen Devine, Cindy Patrick, Richard Gray, Stephanie Roberts, Julieanne Kost, Russell Brown, Knox Bronson, Nate Park, and close friend and colleague, Marty Yawnick.

Organised by Dan Marcolina, this special, full-day event titled "iPhoneography: The Mobile Masters Sessions", will bring together the largest assemblage of iPhoneography talent and inspiration to date, and will be a celebration of not only a new year but also a new chapter in photographic history, the Mobile Movement.

With prices starting from $275 USD, the objective of this day long session is to unveil and celebrate all aspects of this rapidly growing art form based around Apples iPhone. The event will feature more than a dozen of the most notable names in the movement. You will learn why iPhoneography is different from traditional photography in three unique ways: Organically Shooting, Processing and Sharing. How to get unique perspectives and story telling with Street photography, how to combining apps to create artistic images beyond what has ever been possible and how to share smarter and get noticed in Instagram.

For more information on the once in a lifetime event, or to order your place, head over to the Macworld/iWorld website.

$275 seems a bit too much, don't get me wrong I have paid more for concerts etc but I just hope is not like Mr Hollingsworth workshop he had a few months ago where he just couldn't stop talking about Camera+ (which I love) but to me his editing doesn't go beyond one tap filter apps and he event says it on his videos.

I live in San jose, Ca and I am interested on this but I just hope they show more than 1 tap filters and boom "look how beautiful that looks" kinda thing. I've been interested on learning things such as these http://www.flickr.com/photos/transistorwallah/7734469556/in/photostream/

How it was shot, how to app it then work it etc.

Hi Christian, I too was a little shocked when I saw the price, but the event won't just be about one person or one app, there will be a wide range of speakers and topics. Myself and Marty will be talking about the history of iPhoneography, how/where it started, how it became popular, and where we believe it's going. We'll also be taking a look inside our own camera pocketable camera bags, kind off a show and tell, of what we use, how and why.

Despite the price tag, I'm sure the event will prove to have been worth the money.

I should point out, that I'm not (and I assume the others aren't either) receiving any payment for this event, and that I've had to self fund my attendance, which so far has cost me about £1,000 GBP, and I'm not there yet!

Congrats! Have a great time!

Is the event going to be recorded? I'm down in Australia, and can't make it in person :-(

But I would pay to get a recording. How much would I pay? A significant proportion of the cost to attend to be fair to those paying to attend, but nt the full amount because I miss out on the "in person" intangibles - atmosphere, speaking with people, asking questions, etc.

I live here in the bay area and alerted about 50 hard core mobile photographers about the event.. While the agenda was interesting, the price tag stopped each and everyone of them in their tracks. Spendy, indeed. Giving respect to the cost to put together an event like this in SF, but WOW!

I'm looking into attending... would be cool to catch up with you guys. I'm hoping that this might tie in nicely time wise with the launch of a new app.

Agree. Would be fantastic to see everyone, who you know from e-mails only:)
Great stuff.
