Who is Tamara Lackey?

Tamara Lackey is a professional photographer, author, workshop teacher and international speaker. Her work has been published in numerous lifestyle magazines including Vogue, O – The Oprah Magazine, Town & Country, Parenting Magazine, Food & Wine, The Knot Men's Journal,; in trade outlets such as Professional Photographer, Professional ImageMaker and Rangefinder; and on national television programs including NBC’s The Martha Stewart Show and ABC’s Extreme Makeover: Home Edition.

In 2008, Lackey released her educational book The Art of Children’s Portrait Photography, which got favorable reviews, and praise from a writer at shootsmarter.com and aspiring photographers.

Lackey then teamed with Rex Ballard to produce Inside Contemporary Children's Photography, a 90-minute video released in January 2010.

In 2010 Lackey also worked with Kubota Image Tools to develop a "Kubota Artist Series Style Book & DVD Tutorial", The Tamara Lackey Style Book, to instruct viewers on improving their own portrait and children’s photography using "Kubota Actions".

Lackey once again paired with Rex Ballard to develop a guide to help “everyday photographers” capture more from their life moments. Tamara Lackey's Capturing Life Through Photography teaches simple tips and tricks to transform point-and-shoot images into little works of art. It includes a 100-page book and 90-minute full-feature DVD sold individually or as a bundle with included quick reference guide.
