That’s right! VEGAS! I’m staring at the MGM Grand sign as we speak…. or type….. I’m running low on sleep so this is going to be short and sweet! Basically we left the house at 4:40 AM and have been going ever since! WHAT A DAY! For those of you who don’t know, Jessica Smith and I are attending the WPPI (Wedding and Portrait Photography International) conference this week and let me tell you, IT’S INTENSE!… and a tad overwhelming at times but it got ALOT better when we randomly ran into J* in the lobby!! Yes, the Jasmine Star and I’ll admit I’m a little embarrassed to admit that I kind of squealed/yelled/freaked out for a split second…….
it just caught me off guard! What are the odds?! It was an honor to talk to her and thank her for being an incredible inspiration and teacher. She’s just as bubbly, genuine, and beautiful in person and I loved getting the opportunity to meet her!
So needless to say… I pumped about the next 3 days! I’m going to be bombarded with tons of new info/ideas and I’ll definitely be sharing it all with you!!
Thanks for reading!
