A non-wedding post: imaging usa

A few weeks back I had the awesome experience of attending Imaging USA down in Nashville at the Opryland Hotel. Laurie Marie, Laurie Marie Photography, Brooke Hess, b.scrubbed, and little kitty Guinness were my wonderful travel companions. Or rather I was their companion as this whole roadtrip to Nashville was their absolutely brilliant idea.

Yup. That's us! (yes i wear glasses and no they are not the same pair from grade school)

While there is so much information to share here on what I learned, fotogfriends I made, and the inspiring "rock star" speakers I heard from I thought I would keep this post simple....

My favorite event: Night Shots in Music Town.

Laurie and I decided that we would run downtown to capture some local flavor. We gave ourselves a strict timeline (which we did not follow) and the option to pick one lens and one lens only to photograph with (which we did follow). I had so much fun! I absolutely adore getting lost behind the camera. For me it is therapeutic, and inspiring, and challenging. Joe Buissink said it best, "Photographers get to start with a full canvas. How brilliant is that?!" We pick up our cameras and we deconstruct the so called canvas based on our own experiences, on how we see the world. And that to me is brilliant! So anyway....So much fun!

Excuses, Excuses

It has been a million months since my first entry. My only excuse...BlogFright! After a couple dozen attempts at posting I have decided to confront my fear head on. I will not be leaving my computer tonight until I have images on here to share (saying that more to myself ofcourse than to you all)!
Since I missed sharing my 2009 season with you on schedule I have decided to share some flashbacks of a few of my favorites. I hope what they say is true....better late than never!

Carey+Mike: May.2009

I met Carey a few years back while working as a commercial photographer. I suppose even back then she was a client. I am happy to now call her friend. Her early support and confidence (she booked me for her wedding after only seeing a handful of images from the first wedding I ever shot!) is appreciated more than she can know.

I also want to wish both her and her hubby the best of luck on their upcoming adventure...parenthood! Congratulations to both
of you! I can't wait to meet the lil one!
