Y esterday was a great day. Not because I got to visit Canada for the first time in my life, not because JD and I found this amazing Japanese restaurant where they spoke verrry little English, and not because I convinced JD to buy me a jacket from Lululemon because I left mine at home. Actually, those moments made the day special, but what made the day great was the chance to meet an amazing group of photographers in Vancouver.
I spoke at ImageQuest Conference at the River Rock Hotel and being surrounded by such an amazing group of photographers rocked my world. I was incredibly welcomed and I felt like an honorary Canadian. I even tried ending my sentences with eh?, but I was quickly informed that it made me sound like a tourist. Pffft.
JD snapped a few photos of the event, but I was emailed today by Mikaela and she blogged a few photos, so I decided to just borrow hers because, well, if I was being honest, I'm just too tired to edit my own! ;) |
| Mikaela grabbed this quick photo of me and JD and I really, really love it. Or maybe I just love him. Anyway...it's here...so deal with it! ;) |
| I decided to sit at the end of the presentation for Q+A...it was a four-hour presentation, and my heels were not cooperating with me.... |
To the many amazing photographers who showed up...thank you. I know you heard many different perspectives and opinions during the three-day conference, but I appreciate your willingness to be open. And to share. And laugh. I'm so excited to make my way back to Vancouver soon and when I do, I can't wait to hang out again! :)
Happy Wednesday! |
    
O ne thing I'm particularly excited for 2010 is the amazing opportunity to connect and share with other photographers. Nothing is better than learning from many people at once and this March is going to be epic. EPIC. I said it louder in case my dad didn't hear me the first time. In March I will be meeting and connecting with many new photographers and I'm incredibly excited to meet many of you!!
For my Canadian friends, I'll be speaking in British Columbia for the ImageQuest 2010 Photography Convention on Tuesday, March 23, 2010. I'd lovelovelove to meet my Canadian friends there and I have no doubt the conference will be an awesome culmination of great ideas, tips, and knowledge! For more information CLICK HERE to visit the site and find registration information.
Also in March I'm headed to Phoenix, Arizona for the PROPhotogs Convention and I'll be speaking on Thursday, March 11, 2010. Cher Salo and her team take a lot of time and energy planning these conventions and I have no doubt we'll have a blast!
Lastly, I'll be speaking at WPPI, but there's been a change in the schedule. My new and official presentation time is Monday, March 8 @ 6:30pm. Holllllla! I'm terribly excited and nervous for this opportunity and though I suspect I'll be hiding in a bathroom stall begging for divine deliverance just minutes before I have to speak, I'm sure we're gonna have fun! As most of you know, WPPI is the biggest photography convention/conference/tradeshow in the world and it's definitely a great place to be to grow and learn.
In light of this, WPPI is having a CONTEST! Woohoo! If you'd like to be hooked up with FREE VIP Registration, a FREE room at the MGM during WPPI, and national exposure for you via Rangefinder, WPPIOnline, and Aftercapture, this is for YOU!!! All you have to do is create a two-minute video uploaded to YouTube explaining what you love most about WPPI. That's it!
