First stop was Jacksonville, AL to crash at my brother's house for the night then onto Birmingham the next afternoon. We had a get together where I was able to meet all the other fellow photographers and had the opportunity to just hang and chat with everyone. The next two days consisted of workshop sessions where I learned so much and had a blast while doing so.
So, the time came when I had to say farewell to my fellow photographians (workshopers?) and back to Jacksonville we went. I was able to spend a day with my brother and his family and visit with my niece and two nephews. It was so nice to be able to spend time with them even though it was so short! The next morning we set off to Gulf Shores, AL to shoot a wedding. We arrived on Friday evening for the rehearsal and rehearsal dinner. The wedding began in the evening the following day, so Saturday morning the bride's grandfather treated us to a Dolphin cruise! it was incredible! We also stayed in a gorgeous 3 level beach house provided by the bride's parents. The whole trip was amazing!
So, the wedding ended and we set back for Florida on Sunday late morning after I enjoyed a nice bowl of granola cereal on the front porch of the beach house loving the nice weather and the beautiful breeze. Arrived in Florida Sunday night and now it's back to work for me Monday morning!
If you don't know already, I have been working on a completely new website for the past few months. I haven't updated my current website in quite sometime and it's definitely been long overdue! The design is complete, so all that is left is getting all my information and images loaded on the site. This can be a pretty tedious process! My goal is to have it completed by the end of May, (hopefully sooner) so as soon as it is, I will definitely be blogging about it! You can also check out my new logo at the top of my blog page.
So, for now, I am working on pics from the Gulf Shores wedding, but until I get those pictures posted, I will post a few from the workshop in Alabama.
This is me with two of the girls at the workshop, Corinna & Kelly. We were grouped together. They were such awesome girls to hang out with.
This is Eliesa and her hubby that offered to model for us so we could have something to shoot!
Corinna is beautiful
and so is Kelly
I was SO excited to have the opportunity to shoot with LOMO! One of my fav types of film. Though I know very little about how to use it, I've always loved the look and history of it. Plus, the guys were able to give me the "LOMO for dummies" spiel!
Here is Stephen's polaroid that he used to take our class shots. (See below)
Bryan, the incredible photographer...

one last shot of our models. I was so pleased that the sky decided to do some cool stuff. Thank you, Lord! :)
And here are the polaroid shots of our group done by Stephen...
p.s. - i wish i could figure out how to post my pictures at a larger view. The quality SO badly decreases at these small sizes. If anyone knows how, please help a girl out! Maybe it's my template?
