2011-04-02

DETROIT, MI, April 02, 2011 (Press-News.org) Celebrated photographer and marketing guru Sandy Puc', along with special guest, internationally acclaimed wedding photographer Jerry Ghionis, aim to educate novice and professional photographers during the Power of Passion Tour coming to Detroit on April 8. The Motor City is one of over 30 stops in the US during the Power of Passion Tour, Puc's fourth national tour that promotes fundamental and insider knowledge of both photography and marketing.

Puc and Ghionis have captivated audiences from Miami and Houston to Los Angeles and Seattle with their positive energy. For this year's Power of Passion Tour, Puc' has brought Ghionis on board to assist with educating audiences, specifically in regards to wedding photography. In addition, boudoir portraiture will be another focal point for the photographers. And the show doesn't stop there: Marketing strategies will be presented for both independent and commercial photographers. Upon each night's close, seminar goers have fanatically expressed how the knowledge gained during the show is an invaluable tool to any photographer, no matter what his or her focus.

Attendees continue to show a new found inspiration for their passion and profession. "Who knew I would go to a photography seminar and change my life. You two are incredible people and it was an honor to be there. Absolutely amazing seminar. Loved it! I just can't say enough!" says Heather LaBone of Virginia.

During the five hour seminar, the onstage presence of Puc' and Ghionis does not disappoint. Expertise is not lacking and neither is the excitement factor of an interactive workshop. Enthusiasm, humor, empathy and enlightenment are vividly expressed while educating every audience member. Puc's strong interest in charitable organizations and Ghionis' ability to truly connect people to their emotions remind audience members that passion is the first step to success.

"This whole experience of touring with Jerry is unlike my previous tours. Combining our passion for photography and ability to share our knowledge in a tour is something we've both wanted to do for a long time," Puc' said of the tour.
