📸 I Learned to Barter in the 80s — Let’s Make a Trade
Long before apps, invoices, and online payments, we traded value — and sometimes the deals were unforgettable. I’ve always believed in the power of bartering. I learned it early, back in the 1980s, watching my mother make one of the most unforgettable trades I’ve ever seen. She traded a Bradley GT for a swimming pool. No contracts, no complicated paperwork — just two people who saw value in what the other had to offer. That moment stayed with me. It taught me that business isn’t always about money. Sometimes it’s about creativity, relationships, and finding a way to help each other grow. Today, I’m bringing that same spirit into our community. I’m a professional photographer with over 30 years of experience, and I’d love to offer professional headshots in exchange for something that helps build visibility, skills, and connection. Here are a few things I’d be happy to trade for: * A 24-hour pin post in your community * Lessons or coaching (marketing, tech, AI, social media, or business growth) * Visibility opportunities or features * Graphic design or branding support * Podcast or interview invitations * Community collaborations * Other creative ideas — I’m open Bartering is collaboration. Bartering is resourcefulness. Bartering is community. And sometimes, the best opportunities start with a simple trade. Would you be open to a barter?

I remember making some pretty good barter trades in the early 90's. I don't think I had much to trade in the 80's, except helping people out when they were moving house (Wellington is an incredibly hilly city, and I was really fit) 😉
📸 Grateful for this incredible community
I just want to take a moment to celebrate this amazing community. We are so lucky to have creative, supportive people coming together to share, learn, and grow. Whether you’ve participated a little or a lot, your presence truly matters. I’ve met collaborators, made friends, and even created beautiful work with people from all over the world — from Canada to Hollywood to Queensland! That’s the power of community. Question: What does being part of this community mean to you?

I am a member of over 101 Skool Communities 📸🌏🎯
I was wondering when someone would ask me why I am with over 100 Skool Communities! I am enjoying the benefits of over 100 communities in Skool! I have learned more in the past 5 months in Skool than I ever learned in L.A. Schools!! I am at least level 3 in almost all of them! When I first started, I picked communities that interested me. Acting. Photography, Modeling, and AI. I spent the past 3 days with Goose, and my son is there with him now! I do not understand too much about programming, but he is a great man with a heart of gold. I made wonderful friends in his community!🚌💯 I guess you could say I was always here at Skool, meeting as many students and Skool owners as possible to see what people are building and how I can be a part of it.📸❤️‍🔥

Okay I don't know how you do it... I have joined maybe 25 communities, and I already feel overwhelmed and consider paring it back a bit. (But I do like them all). 🤔

@Cristal Vancarson Not right now (I should be working, and not on Skool right now! 😉) But keen to catch up again. 😃
📸 Tonight, I Photographed Someone in the Future
It was 5 o’clock in the evening for me in California… and 10 o’clock Saturday morning in New Zealand. From my home, I guided a full professional headshot session for Chris — proving that with remote photography, distance and time zones don’t matter. @Chris Hanlon it was amazing to see you today! You are in the future! Thank you for sending me your film clips! You are so talented! 🎥📸🎬🌎❤️

That was great... and I am sure that the photos that came back from the past managed to make me look younger 😉 🤣
