Photography convention and new options for clients

Scott and I just returned from our annual Wedding and Portrait Photographers International convention in Las Vegas, Nevada.  Its the biggest photography convention in the world and our favorite place to constantly be retraining ourselves, learning from the best photographers in the world, starting at 7:00 am; seeing our mentors and friends, attending master classes, plus classes, professional photography workshops and the biggest photography trade show.  New cameras, lens, flashes, tripods, gear, camera bags, studio equipment, and so many awesome new products to offer our wedding couples.   … its amazing!

Scott and I also had the pleasure of photographing anther engagement session on the strip with our wedding couple. How cool is that, all the beautiful scenery, so much to do and see, we had a great time!   The guys had a hard time keeping us girls out of the stores. So much bling, cool hand bags, luggage, and everything you can image … oh my.

We have some new announcements.  Our book company from Italy, “GraphiStudio” has some sweet new options that I’ve very excited to announce.  Your going to love these! We have been using Graphi since 2005, they are simply the best!
