If life is measured in the moments that take your breath away, I need CPR. We're about half-way done with theFIX and the people we've met, the memories we've made, and the mistakes we've navigated have molded me in ways I didn't expect. And I'm thankful. So incredibly thankful. For those who aren't familiar with what I'm doing right now, it can be summed up as follows: I'm traveling around the United States talking with photographers about how to develop stronger businesses so we can change this industry. Together.
The support, feedback, and love make me appreciate all the new friends I've made and it makes me excited for the second half of this crazy adventure.
Here are a few photos from Phoenix, Dallas, Miami, Atlanta, and Nashville, but if you'd like to see the gallery of images, you can do so HERE.
The evening starts with at least 30 minutes of meeting and mingling with plenty of libations because, really, the more people drink, the better I sound…
One of my favorite aspects is meeting amazing people who I might not have the chance to meet otherwise…
I give a presentation on the struggles we face as business owners and how to navigate through them in order to collectively change the industry.
I'm extraordinarily thankful to have my good friend and talented photographer Ashley Goodwin alongside me for a portion of moderated Q+A during the evening…she always makes me nervous because she asks new questions every night and usually keeps me on my toes…
I'm lucky to have my sponsors drop in at various cities to show their support and I feel so lucky to have them in my corner…here's Joel with Adorama, who also hooked up a few attendees at every stop with cool giveaways…
I absolutely adore these guys!! Jed and Mike from White House Custom Colour are the best in the printing business…they showed up in Dallas bearing gifts for attendees and I'm honored to call them friends.
More than anything, the collective efforts of my amazing team, awesome sponsors, and phenomenal guests have made for people to make big changes in their businesses…and I am thrilled to see what the future has in store!
Happy Thursday!
