I've heard so much about this forum I had to check it out. Since things are starting to slow down a little I thought this would be a great time to jump in and say hello.
My name is Jim Kennedy. I love shooting weddings. My studio is located in Huntington Beach,Calif.
I shoot about 100+ weddings a year. My studio did 240+ weddings this year. I have an amazing studio team. From photographers to the production staff. We are like one large family. I enjoy learning from other photographers and hopefully I can share information that can be helpful also.
I'm always up for sharing info.
You see a little more about me on the most recent Simple Photo Minute.

I look forward to making some new friends on the forum.

Hey Jim,

Jim! You're my hero dude! I just watched your SPM! Awesome!

I am watching episode about you at this moment...

Hey Jim,

Nice to see you here. Again, congrats on your success. See you in Vegas.

Welcome Jim! I havent been following the SPM's much, but just recently saw yours and was really impressed. I was very fortunate to be a small part of and help shoot one of those 240 weddings earlier this year as a second shooter with Eric. I want to personally thank you and Eric for the opportunity and the knowledge I gained. Hope to hear more at WPPI. Congrats on your new studio and I wish you continued success.

last week when huy joined, i told you all he was my photo hero. jim is my kick ass business hero. more than anyone i know jim realized how much personality, attitude, relationships and customer service matter, and his success is proof.

Hey Jim,

Good to have you here - I guess I better check out your SPM!

Welcome Jim!! That SPM blew us away!! So much useful info! THANKS!

Hey man! Welcome! that SPM rocked. You & dane really hit it where it hurts! So awesome to know that there's people out there like you guys, that are willing to help beginners like myself.

Thank you. Very grateful.

And your studio is soo inspiring!

Hey Jim...welcome to the forum. I'm really diggin your studio on SPM right now...so I have to go finish that clip! See you around.

Hi Jim!!!
Now there you're on here, we're gonna have to recruit Stephanie to log on as well!!
Good to have you here and looking forward seeing more of your work here!

Fantastic setup man! Glad to have your 2 cents on here. By the way...your wife's dresses are hot!

Welcome Jim, my husband and I just watched your SPM on Saturday together, and were inspired! I look forward to being inspired and learning from your knowledge!

brilliant!

So much love on here. I love it.

Jim

Dug the SPM feature. Great to have you here.

Off-topic...Dane, I love the new SPM longer segment style.

Crazy stuff going down there - hundreds of weddings? makes my head spin. Nice to meet you.

Ok i don't BS about people very often.. I have worked with/for Jim for a few years, I've seen his business on all sides. I honestly can't say that I have met anyone with more passion, respect, work ethic and focus as Jim. bottom line is that Jim GETS it..


Glad to see you here man!

Welcome to the OSP. The forum just got a little bit better with joining! Eric Cotter is a good friend of mine... so... I've heard allllllllllllllll about you.... all good stuff, of course! Seriously though, I've been keepin' my eye on your stuff and your business since Eric started shooting for you. I admire your passion for the business and the quality of work you put out, along with your comittment to have quality shooters working with you.

Not to mention, nice effin studio!

Jim and Stephanie are the real deal. I actually tried to make the SPM shorter but I couldn't. They just had too much good stuff to share. I'm so amped that Jim's on here ... Becker, Kawter's and Cameron are totally right on ... against all odds, the stock of OSP just went way up again.

Welcome Jim, I watched your SMP last week - wicked cool! Glad to have you aboard!
john
