It’s almost here. The big day. The time of year when it’s socially acceptable to throw on a ridiculous outfit and go to work, dress up as an exaggerated version of the latest politician de jour, or join forces with a few friends to live out your collective fantasies of being in the band, Kiss.

Wow! Our first day at PhotoPlus in New York City was quite an experience. It was an amazing opportunity to see new equipment and learn information about cutting edge photographic gear and techniques. So many well-known people from our industry are here. Down one aisle you’ll find Peter Read Miller entertaining a group with his [...]

As many of our long-standing customers know, this is the time of year where we prepare to launch both the new versions of the RMSP course catalog and the rmsp.com website. There will be an upcoming week where the website will be dormant, but soon after it will go live again and “the cat will [...]
