The excitement in the room was palpable.  Everyone was talking about how thrilled they were to be able to make it to the workshop, delighted to finally meet David Jay and Jasmine Star, photographers we all admire and have grown to know by stalking ...err, following their blogs.    

Both David Jay and J* are great speakers -- personable and funny to boot.  Even though Austin was their second stop on the tour, they were like seasoned pros.  They shared stories about their humble beginnings and the steps they took to make it such that they can enjoy their trade all the while living and enjoying life.  I took away so many things from this workshop that one week later, my mind is still trying to process everything said.  It was four short hours of inspiration from two very passionate photographers. 

It was also great to run into a few photographers that I've met at past workshops and meet some new ones as well.  To Jennifer and Stacey, thanks for coming out to dinner tonight.  It was fun and I'm looking forward to our next meeting.  To Ericka, Chasity, Grace, Ashley, Gina, Jen, and Eva -- let's get together soon!!

Part of the reason for that, no doubt, is the subject matter to which cheap viagra online relates � sex.

Thanks for this article. I'd also like to express that it can often be hard if you are in school and simply starting out to initiate a long credit standing. There are many students who are just trying to endure and have an extended or favourable credit history are often a difficult matter to have.

Thanks for this article. I'd also like to convey that it can always be hard if you find yourself in school and starting out to initiate a long history of credit. There are many college students who are only trying to live and have long or good credit history can often be a difficult thing to have.

Huyen, It was good to meet you and your brother at Free to Succeed in Austin. I didn't get a chance to tell you I really liked your business cards. How fun that you and your brother are both doing this! Hope to get together the next time I'm in Austin! If you guys ever want a place to crash if you're down in the Corpus area or want to go to the beach, feel free to give me a holler! :) -Grace

I can't believe that two weeks since launching this blog, I'm already behind on posting.  I'll get better at this, I promise!


Tomorrow I'll be attending the very alt F workshop given by John and Dalisa Cooper, the masterminds behind the trendy and infamous Trash the Dress shoots.  John and Dalisa are making their way around the country so if you are interested in a fun and refreshing take on photography, check out their summer tour schedule at www.veryaltf.com.


This workshop is going to be nothing short of a great time.  I'll be back to post pictures from the event.
