Infamous for coining the phrase, "Bebbling" Ben Harrison is definitely one to watch. We met him, and his wife Laura, in Chicago, and knew, immediately, that these two were not going to be anonymous for long. It is with incredible pride that we have seen them grow over the past year - really grow! We are thrilled to have played even a small part in their journey.

steve + jen bebb (at the Chi-town bebbinar) quite possibly changed our lives and our marriage ... we are proud to say that we are officially bebblings!

Steve and Jen are probably two of the most generous, authentic and caring people you will ever meet. They honestly rocked our worlds at the bebbinar and we will forever be grateful for attending (sappy, i know, but the honest truth) ... we have been to several conferences, workshops, etc and have listened to many great photographers but we can honestly say that the bebbs are among the best we have ever heard (and no, we do not get royalties, kickbacks, or anything of the sorts for saying this:).

What separates Steve & Jenn from all the other photographers we have heard is that they are not trying to create "mini bebbs" ... and by that I mean that they are not trying to create mini versions of themselves ... they don't just give you the "ten steps to success" ... they take a humble approach that forces you to bring out the "rockstar" (for lack of a better term) photographer that is inside each of us. They are not trying to get you to be something you're not, they are all about harnessing the passion inside of you that made you want to be a photographer ... and giving you the tools to turn that passion into a successful business.

they spared no juicy details: sales, marketing, first impressions, techniques, seeing the light, pricing, 4 day work week, etc ... they have an amazing ability to instruct and connect with you and they literally had people in tears (in a good re-discovering who you are kind of way & in a they just "tore me a new one" kind of way).

And your probably wondering how they changed our marriage ... drumroll please ... the four day work week. It is worth the price of admission merely to hear them explain this ... whether you are married or single, this will change the way you think about your business and life in general.

Anyways, this is getting way too long but I just had to give props to my new homies Steve & Jen ... if you have the opportunity to go to one of their workshops, you are literally crazy if you don't ... it will be one of the best moves you ever make for your business ... period

We have a new feature on our Bebbinar Blog: Bebbimonials! We're putting together some very kind words that other photographers say about us. Some have been to our Bebbinars, and are bona fide Bebblings; others have seen us at conventions and trade shows; others know us locally; and still others have met us at a variety of online locations. What they all have in common is that they have learned from us, or been inspired by us.

It is humbling to read the kind words that our colleagues have to say about us, and we can't thank them enough for taking the time to write. Each are brilliant in their own right, and we hope that you will take the time to explore their work and maybe find inspiration from them too!

Here is our first Bebbimonial from Toronto based photographer John Edgar, in his words:

When I discovered Jen and Steve in college, I knew they where the benchmark. The work that they where doing was progressive, interesting, and not over the top. Five years later, I truly believe they are still the benchmark. In my conversations with them, I have been inspired, humbled, and awe struck. I am continually amazed that they have never stopped pushing the bar. With their fresh approach to client care, and an amazing understanding for what the market wants, learning from the Bebbs is an experience that is second to none. If I could give a photographer starting out in the industry one bit of good advice, it would be learn from Jen and Steve.
