Entrepreneurial Lens: How One Man Built A Photography Business from the Ground Up
Our guest this week on the West of Tulsa Show is Peter Kappen, owner of Visualize Ventura, a fine art studio just down the street from our studio. Peter takes us behind the lens to show us how he takes stunning photos and video of the best and most beautiful automobiles in the world. He describes how he went from UCLA to working for Apple and finally starting his own business. He also explains how he found the world's rarest Volkswagen, a race car called the "Inch Pincher."
