PhotoMentors is announcing an Open Call to Experts in photography.
If you have expertise in any aspect of photography, whether you are an Advanced Amateur or an Emerging Pro, an Established Pro, or an Established Fine Art Photographer, consider joining the community here.
Here are some opportunities you can consider:
1. Consider adding your own favorite photography tips to our mix on this site.
Anyone can do this. You don’t have to be an expert in photography in order to know a tip that may help others. If you have something new or different from what we have (be aware that we already have hundreds of tips and lessons that are not shown yet), then we will seriously consider adding your tip to the Free Library at this site.
In the future, we will be publishing several books for global distribution, and if your tip, article, photograph, or illustration is good enough, it may be selected for our book and you will be acknowledged as a contributor. We will be honest with you, and if you have something we can use that will help others, you will get acknowledged as a contributor. That said, we do have a lot of tips already, and so if you submit something that we already have, it will not be published and we will let you know that too, upfront. We are looking for additional original material. There are countless ideas, so start thinking creatively.
2. Consider offering your services as a Tutor, Teacher, Consultant, or Mentor.
This can be very rewarding and can earn you money for your expertise. To learn more about those levels and their distinctive skills and qualifications, visit two important pages on this site: Opportunities for Experts, and FAQ for Experts. Then contact Steadman to discuss how you might fit in the group for the future.
3. Consider writing an article that can be posted here with you as the guest author.
This would include a short profile of you. This needs to be original (you wrote it) “publication ready” material that we can publish on this site and in future methods (a possible book in the future), but is still subject to editing to fit our direction here. If you have any questions, contact us. If you have any need for understanding our philosophy or our editorial direction, then visit these pages: Vision for The Future, The PhotoMentors Learning Advantage.
The range of article topics is wide open. If you are a Techy Gear Head, then sharpen your keys. If you are a Fine Art Photographer who likes the emotional side of photography, start writing. If your trip up the Amazon on a photo safari was something memorable, then start writing.
PhotoMentors is going to provide you with an outstanding venue, vehicle, method, or channel in the future where you can gain world-wide recognition for your original writing related to photography.
So look into your knowledge and find something you want to share with others who love photography as much as you do.

Seven ways you can help other photographers and yourself too!
Have you heard of Karma? It is the belief that all deeds can shape the past, present, and future experiences. In the West, this is sometimes expressed by the Christian concept of “you reap what you sow.” In short, do good to others and good may come to you. I truly believe that helping others helps not only them, but also ourselves in ways we often cannot anticipate. Each action of good you do, can make the world a nicer place. Do you believe in the Golden Rule?
1. Tell others about this site. If you frequent photography forums and see a good opportunity to let people there know about this site, please do. Others who read your favorite forums or blogs may be looking for free lessons and inspiring photographs from which they can learn. Or they may be new to photography forum posting and need some guidance on how to learn more from getting critiques of their photos. Just direct them to www.photomentors.com.
This site is written to inspire photographers of all levels and help them have a better experience in photography.
We even have seven pages devoted to tips on how to have a better experience on a photography forum and those tips may help your favorite forum have better posts and more participation.
2. Please tell at least three of your friends in your community or social network about this site. If you are on Facebook for example, you could tell your friends.They could be at any level of photography. Anybody who likes photography can benefit from the free lessons or from seeing the thousands of inspiring photographs from some of the world’s best photographers. PhotoMentors has things designed to be of interest to ALL levels of photographers from Beginners to Advanced Professionals.
3. Click on one of the social bookmarking links in this page and let others know about this post or page or this new site. Tweet your friends. Tell others you DIGG this site. Tell your Facebook friends. Look in the right column of this page and almost all pages on the site for the link that says “Add This” and click on it to go a pop up list of bookmarking links. It is easy and fast. Or you can send an email to a friend through that link too. Here is another link so you can bookmark this page right now in two clicks of your mouse in two seconds.

4. Add a link to PhotoMentors site to your blog or site. Or write a post on your blog about what you saw on this site. Did you see a photo that inspired you when you viewed a Masters of Photography Gallery here? Did you learn something about a photographer you had not known about before? Tell others about the thousands of photos by Masters of Photography found here. Remember, our focus is on providing free access to all kinds of photographs and information that will inspire photographers of all levels.
5. Save yourself time while also helping other photographers. In the future you might come across a newbie or someone new to photography. They may be looking for inspiring examples of great photography or they may want some guidance. This site may help them have a better experience with photography too. You won’t have to type much to help them, all you have to do is simply post a link to this site and that may solve their problem with a couple of clicks of your mouse. Simply tell them to look for the section on Free Lessons and Tips. That helps them, saves you time, and helps me help other photographer learn. So, that is a Win+ Win+ Win.
6. Subscribe to the PhotoMentors mailing list for our FREE Newsletter. Why? Because the more subscribers the newsletter has will help us negotiate special offers and discounts from vendors that can then be passed on to you our readers.
It will only take a moment to add your email to the list. Simply fill in the simple Subscribe Form found on the right column of all page here on the site. Look in the lower right column. The newsletter will keep you informed when we have special offers and opportunities for our friends around the world. You will also learn about exclusive discounts and other nice things.
Don’t worry about receiving too many newsletters or emails from us. We only send out the newsletter infrequently, but when we do, there will be something of value in it for you. There will be many valuable and exclusive things coming in the future, including great opportunities for photographers, so don’t miss this easy way to hear about it first.
7. Look around this site. You might find something else that interests you or helps you. In 2010 we expect there to be hundreds of pages of content, thousands of inspiring photos, and hundreds of free educational videos.
I recommend seeing the Site Map (Table of Contents) so you can easily see the long list of articles, posts, and pages listed by topics.
If you would like to see if I can help you as a mentor, then just give me a call using the Skype button or the phone number at the bottom of each Page.
Finally, do what you can to help others post their photos and also get comments and have a good time doing so. That makes the world a nicer place and gives us all more nice photography to see on the net.
Thank you for your help.
Steadman
