WPPI Las Vegas

I don't know where to begin. I had the opportunity to attend WPPI ( Wedding & Portrait Photographers International ) this year @ the MGM! What an amazing time I had. I learned so much valuable information and met some pretty amazing people that share the same passion as me.
My first class was with the very talented Jasmine Star! This woman just blew me away. We waited for 2 hours to get into her class. They had to turn away 1000 people because we filled the room within minutes. I never felt so motivated or inspired in my life after her class! Did I mention how amazing she is? The next day we were walking the trade show when we saw her. We walked up to her asking for some pics but instead she asked us to walk with her and chat about her class! Holla! I couldn't believe it! To make a long story short, my trusty camera wasn't "working" *cough cough* so thankfully one of my fellow photog friends had her phone with her to get my pic. Kristen, you are the best!

Later that day we watchedBecker host a little class @ the trade show. I forgot to mention that he sat next to us in J*'s class the day before! Yeah, totally cool! He also took some pics of me that I will be posting as soon as they are ready. Can this day get any better?
Don't mind my double chin and goofy grin! I was laughing too hard for the pic.

Our last class of the evening was with the fabulous Brianna Graham! Once again, we waited for over 2 hours. This time they only let in 300 people but lucky for us, we were the first 5 in line! We got front row seats and my friend Kelsey won a back drop for being #1 in line! We had the opportunity to stay after class and chat with Brianna. Another amazing and talented photographer!

I can go on and on about my time there but I am getting over being sick. I don't know what happened but Tues. night when I got home, it hit me hard and fast. I was in bed all day yesterday and half of today. Hopefully I will be able to post more as I get better. Until then, this is all the energy I have for now. I cannot wait for WPPI 2011! Thanks for reading!
