Countdown to PIX 2015: Dixie Dixon and breaking into fashion photography
We're less than a week away from PIX 2015, and we're taking the opportunity to introduce you to some of our talented re:FRAME speakers. You can catch them October 6 & 7 live streamed right here, or join us in person at Seattle Center! Just pick up an all-access pass to gain entry to re:FRAME talks at McCaw Hall.
Dixie Dixon acquired her first camera, a Nikon FG, when she was just 12 years old. As a young photographer she would lose herself for hours on end in the darkroom, putting in seven to ten hours without realizing it. Given that kind of dedication, t's no surprise that she's channeled that passion into a successful career.
So what has helped her break into such a competitive field? Dixon shared her story with on Seamless' Be Inspired podcast. For her, only showcasing the kind of work she wants to be hired for has helped her net lifestyle and fashion jobs with high-profile clients. She also emphasizes the importance of developing an individual style - organizing a shoot to carry out that vision can help a new photographer build up a portfolio of work that is uniquely them.
Check out Dixie Dixon's PIX re:FRAME talk for more of her insights on fashion photography.

No Nikon camera we've tested to date balances stills and video capture as well as the Nikon Z7. Though autofocus is less reliable than the D850, Nikon's first full-frame mirrorless gets enough right to earn our recommendation.
Nikon's Coolpix P1000 has moved the zoom needle from 'absurd' to 'ludicrous,' with an equivalent focal length of 24-3000mm. While it's great for lunar and still wildlife photography, we found that it's not suited for much else.
As a stills camera the Fujifilm X-T3 is a pleasant update to one of our favorite APS-C cameras, significantly improving the autofocus. If you're interested in stills and video, though, it's knockout.
The Nikon Z7 is slated as a mirrorless equivalent to the D850, but it can't subject track with the same reliability as its DSLR counterpart. AF performance is otherwise good, except in low light where hunting can lead to missed shots.
The Canon EOS R is the first full frame mirrorless camera to use the new RF mount. We're well underway putting it through our range of standard tests – take a look at how it compares to the competition and our thoughts on using it so far.
