I am officially done with my conference! I haven't been the best at updating this because I've been absolutely zapped by the time I got back to the hotel. I have had the best experience, but it's not a vacation, that's for sure! I have been in class for the past week and I have learned so much about this industry that it almost makes my head spin. Marketing, business advice, branding, posing, lighting, computer skills, etc. I'm worn out!
It's difficult too, of course, because you want to buy everything that everyone has to offer so that, in the smallest way, it might make your life easier. I know I will be upgrading some software soon, but it's a matter of priority! Wow, things change so much so quickly!
I have been spending a lot of time with Katie, too, which has been so awesome. She's so much fun, so lively, so energetic, and so loving and caring. I really am not sure what I would've done without her here this week! I photographed her with Aiden this morning, and I know I got some cute stuff! It's really hard not to with such beautiful subjects.
Tonight I got to go out with Mike and Maureen to the restaurant where Connor is a bartender. I hadn't seen Connor yet since I've been here, so it was nice to get to see him. Fortunately, he wasn't working so we got to chat a bit about photography and what I'm doing here in Phoenix. I snapped a couple of photos tonight too, so I'm excited to get home and see all of the images that I have from this week.
I'm flat out exhausted. I'm very excited to be able to sleep in tomorrow and read my book in the morning. Maybe I'll even work out... NAH! ;)
