Recognize this adorable lady standing next to me?
I’m in Vegas this week at the largest gathering of wedding photographers in the entire world.
WPPI is an annual convention where all of our favorite photographers go to learn how to get better at what they love doing. What they all don’t know is that I am not only the daughter of a photographer attending the convention, I am also a blogger gathering information for a series I plan on writing to give you an inside look into the wedding photography industry.
I attended a mock wedding this weekend, shot by the world’s greatest wedding photographers (think fees of $100,000+/wedding!), and Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday will be spent in classes taught by the likes of Jim Garner, Jose Villa, Me Ra Koh, Elizabeth Messina, Jesh De Rox, and many, many others.
Tomorrow morning I’m getting up at 4 AM for my very first photo shoot (my very first behind the camera, that is). I’ll really only have my point-and-shoot Canon g9, but I’m excited to have the chance to shoot a model posing as a bride and see what I can come up with.
I’ve also seen someone else you might know…
Do you know which bee lives in Vegas? This is just a quick snapshot I grabbed while shoving tourists out of the way to allow my mom to get the perfect shot in front of the Bellagio fountains. I can’t wait for you all to see what she came up with!
That’ll be neat to be on the other side of the camera!! I wish I could do that before my wedding and maybe I’d have a better idea of what pics I want taken…
Yayyy you met Punam! She is shooting our wedding in DC in August, how cute is that photo!? Have tons of fun 
I can’t wait to see these. Your mom is a true talent. I loved working with her!!!!!!
Oooh, looks like Miss Dumpling! It sounds like you had a great time.
My photographer spoke there! I just read his blog update an thought of you. I wonder if you saw him?!?
Dumpling! Oooh, Punam is getting really popular! She’s so talented.
Oohh, oohh!! See if you can take a picture with Kenny Kim (chicago)!! I stalk his blog haha…. he’s a very nice guy and very talented to boot. I can’t believe he just started professionally 2 years ago.
Cool Avo! This is an exciting blog! Can’t wait for more!
Are you considering a new gig? Have a blast!
