Thank you Dean Capture.
 
Today I, along with 10 others, attended Deans first Glamour Workshop (TheGlamourWorkshop.com) and I honestly learned a lot. It was WELL worth the price of admission.

Besides having the opportunity to learn hands on with Dean, I also got to meet and compare notes with a number of other photographers from around the country.

Anyway........Although Dean is still banned from GFY, I feel he deserves a plug here as well as a big THANK YOU. :thumbsup

Shap 09-15-2007 08:00 PM

Hey Aaron any samples from your day? I bet every single person that showed up left there with a lot more knowledge :winkwink:

Aussie Rebel 09-15-2007 08:16 PM

Free Dean Capture!! Aaron if Dean asks the mods they might unban him now, I seen them unban worthless trolls, So I can't see why they wouldn't unban someone that actually contributes to the webmaster community.

F-U-Jimmy 09-15-2007 08:20 PM

Ill second that sentiment. It was a very informative day with a group of great people. Aaron it was a pleasure to meet you and all the other attendees. Dean certainly knows his stuff.

tony286 09-15-2007 08:23 PM

Dean is a great teacher and good guy.

GAMEFINEST 09-15-2007 08:31 PM

why did he get banned?

F-U-Jimmy 09-15-2007 08:36 PM

For telling the truth !

Mutt 09-15-2007 09:01 PM

glad it went well :thumbsup

Aaron it was good meeting you today. Just got back to Phoenix.

I learned more about shooting today from this class then any thing I knew so far. Thanks Dean.

Also I need to thank other photographers who shared tips and gave a newbie like me pointers on how to shoot good.

That 30D bought is going to be put to good use.

Bring Dean back to GFY, i miss all those pictures.

Jay

Semi-Retired-Dave 09-15-2007 11:37 PM

I am suppose to go to one as well. I too think they should unban him. He is a nice guy and has a lot of talent.
For such a great photographer, that is awesome that he shares his passion to others to make them as good.

Dean, sign me up soon.

Props to anyone who shoots glamour.

JP-pornshooter 09-16-2007 12:23 AM

was a good ws, nicely organized and a good group of professionals wanting to learn more. and jamie hammer looked great in the pool btw ;)

JP-pornshooter 09-16-2007 12:24 AM

and for crying out loud, unban the guy.. he is the nicest person on the planet...

Profits of Doom 09-16-2007 12:38 AM

Personally I think he should be unbanned, but does he really need GFY? He is a talented professional and GFY was better for having him as a member, and they got entirely too butt hurt over his comments, which most everyone agreed with. I think GFY should ask HIM to come back, not the other way around...

xenigo 09-16-2007 12:49 AM

I don't come here often, and apparently I missed out on this juicy tidbit of news. Why the fuck did Dean get banned from GFY of all places??? Seems absurd to me.

He go banned because he complained about the board being ridiculously slow, which it is, but then hurled a few insults at Playboy for it...

xenigo 09-16-2007 01:00 AM

Just read the thread. Interesting stuff. I haven't noticed any speed issues personally. Myspace is the biggest thorn in my side as far as speed goes :)

Paul Markham 09-16-2007 01:11 AM

Wish I could of made it. Anytime shooters get together and talk they share ideas and tips. Maybe seminars like this at shows would be more interesting than listening to people babble on about their product.

Aaron you coming to Amsterdam?

That's not exactly the truth...

Dean was constanly spamming, plus whining about and bashing GFY/Adult.com/Playboy incessently - his next to last post was titled, "A Big Fuck You From Playboy.....", where he called out Lensman, the owner of GFY.

BTW, Dean admitted F-U-Jimmy into his course because he paid him $300, despite this post:

Here's a picture of Dean with Jaime and Chrissy Moran (who now makes a living denouncing porn):

Dean is a good photographer, but as one former employer who let him go indicated, he can get psychotic offline. While he might be quite pleasant while taking your money for his photo class, never say anything critical of him and his work, or else be ready for a stream of threatening e-mails.

Anyway, it's not up to me if Dean is allowed to return to GFY. Just trying to set the record straight (or at least provide an alternative viewpoint) as to why he was banned in the first place.

LadyMischief 09-16-2007 08:55 AM

Dean is the bomb! I'd love to attend one of his seminars.

MandyBlake 09-16-2007 09:35 AM

dean is awesome.
very sweet and super talented.

Kevin Marx 09-16-2007 10:25 AM

Great workshop... I was there... Aaron, Jay, Felix, Pierre... it was great to meet all of you. Everyone else.. I am sorry your names don't pop right into my head.. but it was nice talking to each of you.

Dean was a great host and took care of his first workshop very well. Regardless of how he may respond, honesty is never a bad thing.... if he were banned for being malicious or downright nasty, that's one thing... but I don't believe that's the case here.

Free the DEAN!!

My shot from the workshop..

RevSand 09-17-2007 05:26 AM

The workshop was GREAT! I cannot talk highly enough about it.. As a 'wannabe' photog whose real strength is with a video camera and not a still camera it was a very beneficial and enlightening day. Love or hate dean as a person, you cannot deny his work is top of the line.

I am not so sure the objective was just to make the $300 per person attending.. there were i think 10 peeps making it a total of $3K.. Dean had 4 people there assisting and a top location. Lunch was included as was all beverages and tons of snacks etc..I doubt he made much money...
He could have made much more doing a regular shoot for one of his clients.
i think most would have been fine with paying 500 for the same, the price was definitively reasonable and well worth it.
The only issue i had was when the attendees got to shoot a few clicks of Jamie, she was not posing, just standing there.. no facial expression. But that is her, not Dean..

Good comment and I agree with you wholeheartedly. I don't think she had any interest in most if not all of the attendees (which is surprising as we are her potential bookings). I gave up after my 5 shots after making a request and getting ignored. She may not have heard me as the waterfall was behind her, but I know another attendee heard it as we talked about it... who knows... Dean was very cool.. I can always find another model :D
