I'm sorry that I just don't get to Dubuque anymore. :(
When I was a regular visitor to Iowa (I don't work for the company that used to send me there) coming and going, Dubuque was my usual port of entry. Late one afternoon, I was in downtown Dubuque, enjoying the eye candy offered up by Dubuque's architecture when I noticed the photography store. (It's in a great old building and the decor is "Traditional Photo Studio.") I was shooting architecture with my little Canon PowerShot when Sean noticed me shooting his block. Although the store was closed, he opened up to chat with me. He invited me into the store and we spend some time chatting about photography and what I was up to. He showed me around and I drooled over the Manfrotto tripods, his backgrounds and some of the gear on display.
What really caught my eye was a set of lenses that attached to my iPhone. Sean opened the package and demonstrated how the telephoto, fisheye and macro glass worked on my iPhone. Well, of course I had to buy it and take it home with me.
Sean knows what he's talking about - he's a pro - and he's willing to share his experience to help all levels of shooters to find what they need. If you're in northeastern Iowa and you're looking for gear and a way to improve your shooting, this is the place. read more
