Fine Art Photographers

Take your career to the next level by learning from the experts

(If you're not a photographer, or think this might interest a friend, please feel free to forward this page.)

After polling hundreds of attendees of our recent webinars, we identified the most pressing topics requested by emerging fine art photographers. Based on this feedback, we've developed a series of standalone webinars that dive deep into subject-specific material.

We have designed each webinar to raise the career level of any emerging artist. Led by Daniel Miller, prominent guest speakers will add their distinct points of view based on their years of experience. We will supply registered attendees with links to each presentation's recorded webinars and pdfs.

Each 90-minute webinar will include plenty of time for live questions and answers. You can pick and choose which topics are most relevant to you. The fee to attend is $45 for each session, or preregister for any three webinars for $125, or all six for $180. 

Can't attend live? Registered attendees will receive access to the recording after each live presentation.

Comments about past seminars:

“We hosted Daniel Miller’s lecture at The Annenberg Space for Photography and it was one of our most popular events yet! His lecture was well-organized, informative, easy to understand, and applicable not just to photographers but really to any artist looking for inside information about the gallery world. Daniel spent extra time with our guests after his lecture to answer their specific questions and took many questions throughout the lecture. I’m confident our guests left happy and with great information to take back and apply to their careers.” – Eva Vieyra Osmand, Annenberg Space for Photography, Los Angeles, CA

“We had excellent feedback on your seminar and your way of telling the artists how to move in this world of art. Thank you.” – Cristina Manasse, MIA Photography Fair, Milan, Italy

“Daniel has given several seminars at Foto Care on how to get your work into a gallery. He is always a huge draw for us. Attendees always rave about his unique and effective presentation and ask when he will be back. He is definitely one of our favorite speakers and we look forward to his next seminar.” – Linda Drummond, General Manager, Foto Care, Ltd., NYC

“Daniel’s seminar was a perfect follow-up especially for participants of the Eyes On Portfolio Review that was held just three months before. I personally enjoyed his entertaining and interesting presentation, which offered me also an inside view of the difference between the art world in the US and Europe. We had great feedback from the audience and sincerely hope to welcome Daniel back during our festival.” – Thomas Licek, Managing Director, Eyes On – Month of Photography Vienna, Austria

“Daniel brought an unprecedented crowd to RayKo Photo Center for his presentation of ’15 Things to do to Get Represented by a Gallery.’ Not only was his lecture informative and inspiring, full of insider tips and priceless advice, but he also stayed after the 3-hour presentation to further answer questions, both to the crowd and then even later to individual artists. I received many thank you notes afterwards for bringing him to the San Francisco Bay Area. I would have him return for another talk any day, absolutely worth the price of admission.” – Ann Jastrab, RayKo Photo Center, San Francisco, CA

“Terrific presentation! We are very happy you came to Madrid to give this seminar.” – Enrique Polanco, Madrid Foto
