the technical explanation

The digital edition of the November 2010 Professional Photographer Magazine was released yesterday.

For this month’s article, I reviewed personalized packaging options from HB Photo Packaging, McKenna Pro, Jolie Wraps, and Nashville Wraps.

Click the magazine page above for a larger version. You can find the article on page 50 and page 51 of the print-version when it hits mailboxes. And you can also download the digital edition now if you’re a PPA member or digital subscriber.

The other big ‘news’ in magazine-land I’m extremely excited to share is that I’ve now been promoted from freelance columnist to ‘technical editor‘ with the magazine. You can see my name in the masthead (page 4), starting with the November 2010 issue. And expect to see me in all 12 issues of Professional Photographer Magazine in 2011!

In case you missed it, Buttons and Bows Photography was featured on the Design Aglow Blog yesterday.

You can find the Parisian photo borders shown in the article above here.
