Jersey in Tampa
Chit-chat, Portraits 8 Comments »I just returned from a wonderful experience in Tampa. I was there to attend the Digital Wedding Forum Convention and part of Imaging USA.
The Convention showcased the top wedding photographers in the world and I was honored to be able to listen to and later on chat with the likes of Jerry Ghionis, Steve and Jen Bebb, Dave and Quin Cheung, Greg Gibson, Huy Nguyen, Susan Stripling, Tony Hewitt, Yervant, Dennis Reggie, and many others at the top in this art. I also gained tremendous insight and motivation from personal mentor sessions with Andrew and Rachel from LaCour studio and with Daven and Quin Cheung - and their two little boys!
With all this education, I came back with so many ideas on how to improve what I provide my clients that it will likely take most of the year to pull it off. In the end, though, it will certainly make your experience all the better.
Top this experience off with being able to meet some of my fellow moderators on that forum in person and it was a fantastic way to start the new year!
Of course, whenever you have photographers there are bound to be photo sessions. So, I was able to do is take part in a group shoot with a fantastic local model. The shoot had well over ten models and thirty photographers but several old and new friends (Jake Morrow, Mark Gardner, Travis Hill, Jeff Newcum, and Jason Domingues) only shot with Jersey. She had the attitude we were looking for.
Here are a few of my favorite shots.
