WPPI 2009

I'm back home from Las Vegas and words can't begin to describe how amazing my experience was. I was joined by 4 other wonderful women whom I met last May at a MeRa Koh workshop. We arrived on Sunday feeling electric and looking forward to our time there.

I attended 3 platform talks, including one by my very favorite photographer, Audrey Woulard. I feel like this was the talk that most spoke to me as an artist and I learned so much!!

The trade show was SO overwhelming and I wanted to buy everything there... but I was a good girl and only made a few purchases (including a new funky fun cover for my Shootsac ;) We went to the Mpix booth to see one of our favorite photographers, Carey Schumacher of Barefoot Memories Photography and grabbed a snapshot with her. Carey also taught at the workshop last May, and she simply an inspiration.

Below are a couple of photos that were taken while we were there. I will have some exciting announcements in the following days regarding Grin & Share It. Please stay tuned...

Finally, I have to give a shout out to the lovely ladies who joined me this weekend. I am so blessed to have met each and every one of you. Thank you for your honesty, you support, your laughter, your wisdom and your openess. I can call any of these girls at any time and ask them a question, knowing they will give me an answer without hesitation and will share their knowledge with me. I had such a wonderful time with all of you and will treasure the time we spent together. I hope to be able to join you again next year, along with the other friends we've made that couldn't be there with us.

Enjoy,
Tessa

I'm off to Vegas in the morning, and I am SO excited! I'm going with 4 fellow female photographers for a long weekend of photography, girl time, food, gambling & shopping. It doesn't get much better than that! I am so thrilled that quite a few of my favorite photographers will be there, and I can't wait to hear their platform talks!

I will be out of the office until Wednesday, February 25th, and will return all email and calls when I get back.

And because no blog post is complete without a photo, here is one sneek peak from the maternity shoot I did this afternoon. Cindy, I promise to post many more when I get home ;)

Enjoy,
Tessa
