  15. Really enjoyed Joe McNally’s class in London a couple of years ago. Would love to be part of Scott’s class too. just a short hop from Ireland!

  16. Hi guys! I won Dre Gardners DVD a couple weeks ago but never heard from anyone. Don’t you need my address or something so you can send it to me? Thanks a bunch.

  27. Hi Scott, I got so much out of the Kilby Training episode like this day you’re offering. I am in Nova Scotia Canada and I have learned so much from you. My fav are your days with Jay Maisel. I have gotten so many good shots just by leaving my camera on and lens cap off!!!  I would love to meet you in London! In any case have a great time.

  29. I often watch The Grid, it’s informative knockabout stuff, making the transfer of knowledge fun. It’s a rare gift. Keep up the good work. I wonder if it’s a good live ?

  40. Good morning to everyone! :D I would love to assist the conference in Islington, I’m studying environmental science at Kingston University (London, UK) and as I’ve always said a good pic can change the world. Hopefully one day I’ll be able to show a picture and make my little contribution to the preservation of the world :D Scott Kelby you are amazing!!! Thank you for this great opportunity 

  45. So here I am as I mentioned on the Grid some episodes ago I’m about to embark on a mighty new challenge, I have resigned from my steady day time job of shooting babies to going out on my own , a new challenge and fairly nervous but then I think that’s healthy. So what better way to kick off my new adventure than to attend Scott’s LSR class across the pond end of the month. So I’m really looking forward to the class and perhaps meeting and having a chat with Scott. So see you all soon.

  48. Oooh, Scott Kelby in London would be amazing, I’m only an hour away, and it’s something I could really do with. I’ll be able to sing your praises on my website too!  

  67. PICK ME! PICK ME! I am really interested in David Ziser’s Live Wedding Shoot DVD. I’m an aspiring wedding photographer. Thank you for free stuff Thursday!

  70. Really enjoyed the show in Amsterdam. Love to go again, but hard to justify. I’d also like to see someone from here organise an after show photo walk along the South Bank finishing in Chinatown.

  80. Would love to get a copy of the Wedding DVD. Have seen it at other KT seminars, which btw are always extremely well done and a great day of inspiration and information. And the workbooks are a huge bonus. Keep up the great work

  87. My Sister is going to shoot her first wedding this year and I’d love to win a DVD to help her out. I love Free Stuff Thursday Thanks Scott!

  92. I would love to meet Matt in person in Chicago.  I just ordered Lightroom 4 and waiting for teh new version of the book to come in the mail.

  100. I agreed to shoot my niece’s wedding this summer so I would love to have the Wedding DVD to help me!  Getting it free would be the bomb!!!  And I just bought Lightroom 4 so any help learning that would be super too!  I love reading your stuff!  Enjoyed the live taping of Crush the Composition last summer in Tampa as my first exposure to Scott’s live teaching.  Previously had just read #1-#3 of the Digital Photography books. 

  116. This is my first comment here, but I have been going crazy over your blog for the past few days!!  I feel like a sponge that just can’t get enough information!! :D  I plan on getting Lightroom 4 next week so I would love to see Matt in Chicago.  I also have some wedding shoots so David Ziser’s DVD would be awesome too!  Thanks for being such a great resource!
    P.S. I your photo recipes app got me started in my photographic pursuits, thank you so much for that!! 

  124. I’m absolutely devastated! I live in Norway, and will be in London that weekend, doing something else… Tough luck!

    Well, my Roller Derby team has paid much of the airfare and hotel so I guess they’ll be less than happy if I attend a photography seminar instead of learning more about being a Roller Derby refree.

    Scott, if you have time on sunday 29th, it would be awesome if you sneak in to the RD workshop to shoot some photos ;)

  147. Scott’s LiSiRi Live was the highlight last year for me in Toronto. Absolutely spectacular. Special guest Terry White. …anyway, now im looking for seminar dates in Canada in the tour calendar on KelbyTraining.com, and its not there… please.. come back..lol

  160. Wow!  This is just like Christmas; only without the crowds.   So many free goodies to choose from…I’m thinking the LR4 class or the David Ziser DVD

  162. I would absolutely love to win David Ziser’s Live wedding DVD.  Every time I turned around at PSW, there was David standing, talking and sharing his experience with others.  Great guy!

  173. I absolutely love all the stuff on Kelby training by David Ziser! Sign me up for Live Wedding Shoot: From Start to Finish by David Ziser. Thanks!
