Summary

He has shot 13 Sports Illustrated covers,  11 Super Bowls, World Series’s, Presidents and 200 shows in 30 countries with John Bon Jovi.  David Bergman has earned the access he receives with amazing photos time and time again.  

 

I had the chance to sit with David at the loft to discuss everything from what it’s like to get an SI cover to flying in a private jet as Bon Jovi’s tour photographer.  That interview starts at 50:18 second and in my opinion is another fantastic discussion with an amazing photographer.  His stories along with his advice are enjoyable and really worth a listen.

 

If you have been waiting to see who WON the Atomos Ninja Star contest you can see the 7 finalists right here. http://froknowsphoto.com/atomos-ninja-star-contest-finalists/

 

We discus our upcoming Vegas trip and if you are in Vegas and know of a location for a RAWtalk or work for Excalibur please e mail me at jared at froknowsphoto dot com.

 

Stephen hit’s us with the weeks Photo News which you can find starting at 13:34

 

Finally we did something new this week with the Wheel Of FRO where I selected 12 names and placed them on the smaller wheel.  I gave it a spin and the persons name it stopped on got to SPIN the BIG WHEEL!!!!

 

A big thank you goes out to Atomos because without them we wouldn’t be able to record continuously with a DSLR that only lets us shoot 20 minutes at a time.  Thank you to RODE, Squarespace, Allens Camera and everyone else who has a spot on the Wheel Of FRO.
