I just returned from an amazing trip in Seaside, Florida, with about 15 other photographers from Canada and the United States. We shacked up in two great houses and hung out, ate, and talked shop for 2 1/2 days. It was so great to meet with people who work in the same business as I do, and who share my love of photography. Many, or even most, of these photographers gave up previous careers (in law, family therapy, personal training ;-) - to name a few), to pursue their love of photography and make it their career. As well, almost everyone there had children (not with us :-)), and there were 5 buns in various ovens who gave the gathering an even more magical energy.
Thanks for a fantastic few days Ladies. This is definitely something I would love to do on an annual basis. Finally, an extra thanks to Marla and Tara for getting up at 5a.m. to take us to the airport, when we discovered that our shuttle dude slept in!
Here we are in all our glory :-).
