ASMP/NC is proud to present an evening with Bob Krist on "Solutions for Five Location Challenges."

Program

Open up National Geographic Traveler, Islands, or Smithsonian, or any of the major travel magazines, and you will likely see Bob Krist's beautiful images. Check the Table of Contents in Outdoor Photographer or National Geographic Traveler, and you will probably find an article by Bob.

Bob will talk professionally about problems and solutions for the traveling photographer, including:

Handling of bad weather;
Overcoming language barriers;
Tips on how to approach people;
Planning and executing a travel assignment; and
Digital workflow on the road.

There will be a Q&A session at the end of the program.

A former professional actor, Bob is a bit of a stand-up comedian, so this should be a very entertaining evening in addition to being an informative one.

Bio

Bob Krist is a freelance photographer who works regularly on assignment for magazines such as National Geographic Traveler, Smithsonian, and Islands. These assignments have taken him to all seven continents and have won awards in the Pictures of the Year, Communication Arts, and World Press Photo competitions. He has been stranded on a glacier in Iceland, nearly run down by charging bulls in southern India, and knighted with a cutlass during a Trinidad voodoo ceremony. He won the title of "Travel Photographer of the Year" from the Society of American Travel Writers in 1994, 2007, and again this year at the 2008 convention. In 2000, his work was honored at the Eisenstaedt Awards for Magazine Photography in New York City.

Bob's books include In Tuscany (Broadway Books, NY), which features 270 pages of his photographs of the region and is a collaboration with author Frances Mayes. It spent a month on the New York Times bestseller list. He also photographed the coffeetable books Caribbean, Portrait of the Caribbean, and Low Country: Charleston to Savannah (Graphic Arts Center Publishing) , A Photo Tour of New York (Photo Secrets Publishing, San Diego), and Impressions of Bucks County (Old Mill Productions, New Hope PA).

An accomplished writer as well as a photographer, Bob is a contributing editor at both National Geographic Traveler and Outdoor Photographer, where he writes a travel photography column. His how-to book Spirit of Place: The Art of The Traveling Photographer (Amphoto Books, NY) was hailed by American Photographer magazine as "the best book about travel photography we've ever read." He lectures in Washington DC as part of the ongoing "Live at the National Geographic" series. He teaches photo workshops for the Maine and Santa Fe Photo Workshops, National Geographic Expeditions, and Linblad Expeditions.

A former professional actor, Bob hosted Nature's Best Photography, a 13-part series for National Wildlife Productions on the Outdoor Life Network, and Photography Close Up, one of Cablevision's "MagRack" series. He also hosted the PBS special, "Restoration Stories." Bob lives in New Hope, Pennsylvania, with his wife Peggy. They are the parents of three sons, Matthew, Brian, and Jonathan.
