LinkedIn for Professional Photographers

As I’ve mentioned in the past, I am not a professional photographer by any stretch of the imagination. That being said, I did have a short stint in the fulfillment industry that required that I look for areas where pro photographers “hang out” to see what their needs were, etc. One of the surprising places to find a number of photographers active is in LinkedIn’s Groups, and you will actually find a number of professional photographers that also have professional profiles on LinkedIn. If you’re looking to increase your visibility, or if you just want to interact and ask questions with other photographers, you might want to join some of the groups on LinkedIn.

Note: Mario Sundar, Community Evangelist at LinkedIn, is a good friend of mine. Please feel free to bug him if you have any questions about LinkedIn;-)
