Yours truly. Check out my fancy tie Sou-Wah got me. =) She had Bandele present me a surprise gift all the way from the UK on Valentine’s Day. Thank you for making me feel so special sweet heart.
WPPI Vegas Quick Recap:
Theres no better way to kick off 2009 in Vegas at the MGM with 12,000 + photographers from all over the world. It was my first time to WPPI and the exposure has definitely been worth it. =) Scott Robert also hosted a workshop a couple days prior to WPPI. That was a ton of fun and we had the opportunity to photograph at the Neon Museum (aka the Boneyard). The place isn’t how I always imagined it but it was still a photographers play ground. I connected with some amazing people and made some awesome new friends. I fully enjoyed the featured platform speakers Jim Gardner, Jerry Ghionis, Yervant and Matthew Jordan Smith. They all had different things to say but the one thing that stuck to me was “shoot what you love” – MJS. The sweetest part of the entire week was being in great company and it was certainly lovely to see a lot of familar and new faces. Thanks guys for all the inspiration. Keep on dreaming….
Thanks for stopping by everyone.
Cheers,
Stephen

LOL! I know what you mean about the Boneyard! IT goes to show how great the photographers are that shoot there because you would never know. Love all your photos Stephen. Thats a very cool tie and that it came from the UK via a girl on Valentines Day is just sweet!
I wish we could have made it to WPPI this year it would have been fun to hook up! It felt weird not being there this year. What was the overall feeling about the economy on the industry?
Nice images! I love the last image of you as well!! Props to Linda!! Thanks for coming on the ride, good times my friend!!!
