His new book, Picture Perfect Posing broke the sales record for single book sales in his publisher's 27-year history. Both of Roberto's books have been translated into Chinese, Indonesian, Spanish, German, Portuguese, with even more translations planned in the coming year. You can find his books at Amazon, or any Barnes and Noble in the country.  Finally, in March of 2016, Roberto released his latest book titled Picture Perfect Lighting.  This book's pre-order numbers propelled it to the #1 new release in the Photography Lighting category in Amazon.

The most notable being the Wedding and Portrait Photographers International (WPPI) competition held in Las Vegas, Nevada annually.
