Blue Fier

Blue Fier (www.bluefier.com) is a photographer specializing in the vigorous field of location photography. He has photographed numerous advertising campaigns for major corporations, specializing in panoramic images of people and products in exotic environments. He'll do just about anything to get the shot -he's dangled out of a helicopter over Lanai in Hawaii, avoided grizzly bears in the wilds of Alaska, and gotten wet with 22 swimwear models in Palm Springs pools. He has two masters degrees in Art (M.A. from Cal State University, Northridge and a M.F.A. from UCLA) that have given him the background to creatively explore photography. His unique perspective as a working photographer and years of creating order out of chaos, has lead to his recently published book, Composition Photo Workshop (Wiley 2007, 252 pages), now available wherever books are sold (and translated into Spanish, Czech, Polish, and Mandarin Chinese). See Blue's website for workshop schedules and one-on-one mentoring.
