Pismo Beach, CA
OSP West Seminar
We had our final day of the seminar on Sunday. It finally stopped raining and there were some amazing fluffy cotton clouds everywhere as the sun would peak in and out of them. We started with a seminar about children’s photography by Dawn Tacker out of San Diego, CA. She really hit some huge things that we are going to start to use in our Family and Lifestyle Sessions.
Maddux was even a model for about 2-3 hours. He pretty much stole the show. He is so easy-going and didn’t cry once. Even with 30 photographers shooting him!!!
We went to eat at a cool diner and then headed to one of my favorite seminars by Gene Higa out of San Francisco, CA but he shoots everywhere!!! He is known as a Destination Wedding Photographer. He has shot on pretty much every continent from India to Thailand to Phillipenes to Italy to Mexico to South America, etc. His images are amazing!!! I really just loved hearing him speak and it was pretty inspiring. Well, we don’t want to shoot too many destinations. Maybe like 2-3 a year would be sufficient.
The seminar ended that afternoon but we wanted to stay and enjoy another day!!! We woke up Maddux:
So we took a little trip to TV Tower Road. It’s a locals hang out. It’s up these huge mountains, on a tore up one lane road, and we were honestly in the clouds!!! And it was freezing up there but it felt so good!!!
We then went back to the hotel and tried to rest. We had a great dinner and met a cool girl named Aimee. We talked with her and she was so sweet and cool. She has a sister who modeled and so we decided to shoot a session before we left on Monday morning. We were so stoked!!! We then went back to the hotel and watched the Grammy Awards. Pretty decent.
We just had a great weekend and we feel so blessed to be invited to better ourselves and our brand. We can’t wait to do this again!!!
