WPPI: Part One

I am still not on a normal sleeping schedule!  Tim and I got home early Wednesday morning and I have been going non-stop since!  I saw some awesome speakers, met some amazing new people and hung with the coolest photog friends a girl could ask for!  I have to split my WPPI posts in sections…way too much to talk about!

This shot was taken on Monday night at the Pay It Forward/Photolove Cat party!  I’ll name these lovely ladies off clockwise from the left!  Rowena, Melissa K., me, Alyssa, Jeanette and Nataly!

Cutie Patootie Ashley!

 I just got home from WPPI and I am still exhausted!  I will do a full recap in a few days, but first…
Meet little miss Ashley!  Ashley’s mom is a good friend of Tims and she wanted some portraits done of her little Princess.  We met at Woodland Park in San Marcos and had some fun!

Woodland Park has a pond, but it doesn’t look great in color 😉

Tim, Jen, Kristen and I are leaving tomorrow morning for Las Vegas! WPPI  is the largest wedding and portrait photographer convention each year. There will be 10,000+ Photographers in one location. Wow!  It will be a week full of learning, meeting new friends and enjoying life outside of So Cal 🙂

I will have very limited access to the internet and my email, so please be patient if you need to get ahold of me.  I will be back on Thursday!

Have a great week!

XOXO, M

Good Luck Jamie!

My future sister in law, Melissa, asked me to come take some photos at her best friends going away party.  Jamie decided that she wants to open her own business in Oregon! Wow!

Here is the reason for the party, Jamie:

Ok, now the good stuff!  Jamie is a pastry chef!  Look at this spread she made!  My fav was the mini lemon merangue pies! I’m trying to convince her to come back to make my wedding cake! haha

Good luck in the Pacific Northwest, Jamie!  Don’t freeze in the snow from today!

XOXO, M
