Rob Goldman - Photographer

Rob's actually a pretty interesting guy. Aside from the fact that most artists are interesting people, Rob is definitely different.
A large part of his work is dealing with nude models, which isn't exactly what I am into, but it is definitely a type of photography that is appreciated. He captures the beauty of the human body, which people can't see when they look in the mirror.
Rob's work has been used for AT&T, Marriot Hotels, Microsoft and Nikon, just to name a few. I want to get my work out there like he did, so I for one and very exciting to do this workshop.
What I didn't know about Rob is that he is the co-founder of Art That Matters in Oyster Bay, which some of you may know is where STAC had the charcoals presented last year!
But what I love about Rob's work, is that he doesn't teach photography, let's say, but he does concentrate on the human being that concentrates on the photography.
I worked with Rob last year, and he was all in to sitting in a circle and getting a feel for the group to enhance our photography, which may sound ridiculous to you now, but wait until you're sitting in that circle.
