I got back home this past friday from an amazing workshop. I feel a little silly saying it was life-changing...BUT IT WAS! The workshop is called Love Affair. Four amazing women photographers put it on (see my post below). They are all incredible photographers, but more than that, they are incredible women. There were about 60 other ladies who attended the workshop and each of them were so talented. Sometimes when you get a big group of women together, things get a little competitive, maybe even kind of caddy; not with this group.
The workshop was based in the awesome W Hotel Midtown, Atlanta. It was oh-so sheek. As soon as we got to our rooms, there were welcome bags and fresh flowers waiting for us. There were so many little details that made our stay so special. Each day we had classes, learned SO much, watched the photographers shoot, learned SOO much more, did some of our own shooting with models, ate way too much great food, and then learned even more. I left the workshop with my brain packed so full of great information, I couldn't wait to come home and get started on all my new ideas.
Here are some of my images from this past week.
Thanks to our beautiful model.
The W Hotel Midtown.
The finale night par-taaay. They had an event coordinator that did a beautiful job.
The headpieces were made and provided by Joanne Miranda Designs.
I'm loving the off camera lighting!
The biggest thank you ever goes to my sweet, sweet husband, Stoney. THANK YOU STONE!
