The Lambton College Digital Photography classes were treated to a special guest in our on-going guest speaker "In the Studio" series.

Faculty member Dave Chidley interviewed Sandford and we had an extensive question and answer session.

We were wowed by Dave Sandford's wide range of subjects, mostly from the world of sports. From the Stanley Cup Finals, to football, to the Olympics to wake-boarding Sandford's unique approach and style come through in the images.

Social media promotion, building bridges with clients and working with elite athlete stories gave the students a glimpse of how a busy full-time professional is working in the market today.

Discussion on his education, the steps required to reach his goals, and the work necessary, educated us all on the dedication required for success. Sandford uses specialized equipment, to achieve images from inside a NHL goalie net, while being towed by a wake-boarding boat or hanging out in a hot-air balloon. He uses studio strobe lighting to illuminate hockey rinks to achieve the best quality possible. He shared details on of the many technical challenges he faces.

Thanks to Dave Sanford for giving his time and sharing so many great stories about his career! The educational experience was a tremendous bonus to our students.
