digital photography tips

Who are these guys, anyway?

Rob Provencher (left) & James Hodgins.
Taking the nonsense and BS out of the equation and teaching thousands of photographers worldwide how to create kick-butt images and run a successful portrait and wedding studio.

Between the two of us we have well over 35 years in this passion we call photography, with no end in sight. A typical day's work (if you want to call it that) is about 3-7 sessions, most of which are child/baby, families and many, many weddings.

Everything that goes on in the studio is entirely shot and processed on a digital camera ...either a Nikon D series or a Canon D series. We've managed to convert everything to digital, with absolutely amazing results.

The truth is that all that we've created and everything that we teach is based on this real-world environment. We ain't making any of it up. If it didn't come out of day-to-day reality, with real toe-to-toe, belly-to-belly encounters with living, breathing customers who open up their hearts, and wallets, than we don't preach it. It's that simple.

Are these guys heavily medicated? Or are they onto something?

Rob Provencher and James Hodgins, founders of No Bs Photo Success, have been teaching photographers their innovative, no-nonsense, straight shooting approach to digital and marketing success for many years.

Their seminars and workshops have always been well received by photographers who appreciate their "to-the-point", humourous, simple, yet effective and occasional irreverent attitude. They have created a success system that works, and that many emulate with success. Fast paced yet insighful, you'll leave their program with more ideas, tips and strategies that your brain will allow you to cram inside the time they present their workshop.

Digital strategies from the trenches; marketing strategies, shooting the freestyle wedding .... Hang on for the ride, we're taking no prisoners and exposing everything!

I want to be used up when I die. For the harder I work the more I live. I rejoice in life for its own sake. Life is no brief candle to me.
