Brian's describes his Passion for Photography:
"Although photography is a business for me, it is much more. I am passionate about creating images of all types. Landscapes, waterfalls, people and animals are favorite subjects and any opportunity to capture these images is one of my greatest joys. I have discovered over the years that not only do I enjoy creating images but I really love teaching others to do the same. Several years ago I created my own short course in both Basic and Intermediate Digital photography. I have had the privilege to work with over two hundred people starting on the basics and helping them to go as far into photography as they want to. From this came the idea to provide a field trip type of experience for our more advanced students to allow them to apply what they were learning into real-life. Some of our students have really become talented photographers in their own right and on occasion, assist us in portrait, wedding and advertising shoots. Several have even become successful professionals with businesses of their own. It is fulfilling to see others grow to love photography and to find their own niche in the hobby or in the industry. Because I am intent about training photographers, they sometimes become a part of the business. If you hire us for a photography session, don't be shocked to see others with me who are assisting and learning."
Education and Experience
I chose to attend Randolph Community College in Asheboro, NC where I received an Associate Degree in Photography. Although RCC was a local community college, the school was ranked in the top three institutions in the country for photography training. There I met the young lady who would later become my wife. We developed into a talented team, both with photography experience and training which is in essence, Osborne Photography. To this day, Cindy and I work together and enjoy all the aspects of photography. She is not only very able behind the camera but has an eye for the little things that make great photographs. Beyond being my aesthetic adviser, she is the computer imaging guru of the business. She can work wonders in Photoshop that turns a good image into a great image. Cindy has helped tremendously in my transition into the digital world.
