Jasmine Star Workshop Mixer

Yesterday I stepped back and stared at a room filled with incredible people. Yes, wonderful photographers, but, moreso, just incredible people. The thing I love the most about The Workshop is the community that is built by the attendees. The best of them create Facebook groups, stay in contact, and sharpen each other. Seeing their growth and interaction makes overwhelms me with appreciation.

Yesterday JD and I hosted an alumni mixer for attendees. I heard quite a few people were flying in for the Escalate Conference, so we thought it'd be a great way for people to connect with other attendees of past workshops. We had a blast and the afternoon was perfect…

Old friends catching up…

Proposing a toast to their past…and their bright futures…

Yeah…some of us are a little fuzzy…you can thank JD for shooting this at a f/1.2. Don't hate. It was dark in that room! 😉

I loved catching up and hearing all the amazing things (and funny stories!) that are happening in everyone's lives…

I'm speaking at the Escalate Conference tomorrow (Monday) May 17, 2010 at 1pm PST if you'd like to watch the free broadcast, be sure to register HERE. I'll be speaking about harnessing, using, and leveraging social media for your business, so I hope to see you there on the web! 😉
