“Selina is brilliant. She understands photographers and our ever-accelerating changing field like no one else. Her unique perspective incorporates not only her decades of experience in the industry, but also her personal philosophies about the inseparable links between a photographer's vision, style, and life.

Her presentations are entertaining, highly informative and informal, and comprehensively cover a wide range of crucial contemporary issues.”

Jeff Kausch : APA National Membership Representative : APA SF Chapter Regional Director

“Selina brought current insight and indispensable information, to a full house of professional photographers, about the trials and tribulations of working successfully in today’s photographic environment. She was direct yet informal about what it takes to bring your images to this vast market. For some it was an eye-opener and for others, like myself, a confirmation of what we are doing right... but, the most important message for me was not to give up ones ‘dream’, to believe in what one does best and stay the course. This is usually the ‘Achilles heel’ of most photographers.

Struan Campbell-Smith : Photographer : Toronto

“We have found Selina's programs as engaging as her personality. Enough to have her come back to Vancouver three times in the past few years. Each presentation has proven inspiring to the attendees and all have left the events with renewed enthusiasm and a direction for their future.

Survive, think Thrive is full of thoughtful information, planning tools for photographers to use in their marketing and great examples of success. Selina's commitment to the community, industry and photographers as "people" shows through in her presentations.

With a determined, passionate focus, based on many years in our profession, Selina truly stays on top of the changes. She encourages self examination as a good coach would and brings each of the audience members to think hard about what they need to do in order to not survive, but Thrive!

We certainly look forward to her next visit back to our city!”

Rick Etkin : Chapter President CAPIC Vancouver CA

"Selina came and spoke to our ASMP chapter here in Oregon. We drew over 75 people, which is great for our smallish chapter and received universally positive reviews from our members about her presentation. Selina offers a wealth of information and a great upbeat attitude about the challenges facing our business. She presented real world examples and solutions that were inspiring, staying late to answer any and all questions the audience had. It's amazing how comprehensive a marketing roadmap she was able to provide within a single evening."
