He walks in and lights up the room! He’s fun, easy, friendly, a great story-teller, honest, creative, relaxed and…brilliant. He’s Casey McFarland and he’s my mentor. He’s also my photographer of choice…if you can’t have me..but he’s my friend, ah heck, he’s family. And he is a highly successful Utah photographer and owner of Casey McFarland Photography.
I knew him before he was born. His mother is one of my dearest, bestest friends. I’ve known his dad since jr. high and met his mom in college. Even had the inspiration to introduce them and they’ve blamed me ever since. How long’s it been, Elena, something like 35 years?
He’s here now for a visit, some work, a little advice and…let’s just put it this way, where there is Casey, there is laughter.
Casey is as quick as a phone call away for any questions I parlay his way, as I frequently do. He encouraged me to photograph for profit and here I am. At least once a year I attend one of his seminars, one-on-one. And I would like to encourage him to do one-on-one’s with other photographers, for profit. Let’s see if he follows my advice.
A couple of years ago he, his mother, sister and I went to Ireland for the Destination Engagement Shoot of a lifetime. Took this image there.
Happy Tuesday!
Master Photographer
