Technology changed my life around 1997 with my first computer, and along with it came an understanding of the marketing potential of the Internet. Within two years I was in business with Chris Maher building web sites for artists to sell their artwork and have amassed a web site client list of over 150. With a strong 30 year photographic background and the Internet's potential for reaching the right people, I started monitoring imaging forums to answer digital camera questions and created Berman Graphics as a resource site to help people. This led to writing articles (along with Chris Maher) for Shutterbug and eDigitalPhoto Magazines.
Some of our articles that stand out are the definitive interviews with photography greats Jay Maisel, Pete Turner, Ralph Gibson, Freeman Patterson and Neil Leifer. We've also written the often quoted article on how to shoot digital infrared, and have interviewed Henry Wilhelm about archival ink jet print processing. All our articles can be read in their entirety in the press section of Berman Graphics. In March 2003, Chris and I published (with co-author Gregory Georges) a book titled "50 Fast Digital Camera Techniques". In April 2003 I came across a box of my old sports film and started to scan and sell fine art prints. I built my Berman Sports web site and have been marketing my images successfully ever since. I've also been getting calls for various stock images including book and magazine covers. My relationship with Converse came to life again when they reproduced one of my photographs 17x13 feet on the wall of their conference room.
