Enroll in PotraNET

By now you may have registered and signed on and are wondering why you don't see much? You are seeing only the free public areas and are welcome to use them. But to access the instructional areas, video libraries, forums, and other features of PortraNET you'll need to enroll.

What is PortraNET?

Click the "About PortraNET" link in the header menu or click here.
This will explain what we do here, show screen captures, comments from members, member's sample images showing their progression and even a free demo video clip! There are also a couple other free video clips in the public area. You are welcome to download them.

To sum it up, PortraNET is a subscription instructional service for the advancement of professional and soon-to-be professional portrait photographers. It is not just a pay-to-view forum, it is a complete instructional site for "Fine Portraiture".

At present, you can view the public message area, and spend as much time as you like. If you register, you will be emailed a password and will have more features available to you, like being able to post messages and your pictures in the public areas if you like. But to get full access and one-on-one mentoring from Ron, you will need to enroll.

As soon as your payment arrives, full access will be granted and your account will be upgraded appropriately. When paying by credit card, this usually happens within a couple hours -- especially if payment is made during the business day.

If you don't wish to enroll at this time you can still access the "Public Access" areas which are open to everyone. But you'll need to register to post. (Registration is free, but inactive accounts will be deleted if not used for more than 3 months.)

Remember... only Paid Members can access all of the instructional areas of PortraNET (which includes over 100 videos, over 10,000 images posted by Ron and other PortraNET members, and over 15,000 in depth posts by Ron himself, which cover everything from instructional topics on lighting, posing, digital workflow and studio operations to critiques of other members photos.) Enrollment for one full year is $1795.00. This includes EVERYTHING you need to improve your professional portrait work, or to start your own studio and begin a career in Portrait Photography.

We have several payment methods:

PayPal:

    Full enrollment: US $1795.00 for one year.

    Read-only enrollment: US $1295.00 for one year.
