have been a little busy the last few months and as much as I hate to say it, our SHARE group hasn’t met as often as they should have! The Richmond SHARE group is just a localized group of photographers that all use Showit in some way and we’re friends! The funny (and somewhat sad) thing is that most of our group isn’t from Richmond and they drive several HOURS to get together because there is such a lack of friendly community in the industry where they are located. So our “Richmond” share group could really be called the “Central Virginia” share group! We had friends from all over come to hangout last Wednesday!
Lynchburg, Charlottesville, Newport News, Fredericksburg, etc! It was such a fun group and I loved meeting new friends and visiting with old ones!! I’m very thankful for the photographers in this industry that want to be friends with one another instead of just seeing one another as “competitors”. It makes the industry a much happier, less-lonely place!! So thank you ALL for coming out… especially the ones that drove long distances and those brave souls that brought the kiddos! The rain meant that our “cookout” became a “cook-in” but that’s ok because I’m totally fine with hanging out in the new house! :) I hope you all have a wonderful Monday!!! xoxo
Thanks for reading!
