Hi! I’m finally back! 
Last month I had the opportunity to attend Imaging USA in Phoenix, AZ with another local photographer and friend. Imaging USA is an annual photography conference sponsored by Professional Photographers of America. It was a very intense 3 days of learning, learning, and more learning! My brain hurt by the time it was over, but that was a good thing. With a full-time non-photography job and a family to take care of, it is important to me that I make the most of the limited photo sessions I am able to schedule, in addition to being able to increase my photo business and maybe even drop back my daytime work hours in the process. The knowledge I brought home from Imaging will hopefully help me accomplish these goals during this coming year.
Amazingly, I did not take many photos during this trip. Our schedule was so jam-packed with conference events there wasn’t really much time for photo taking. However, there was no way I was coming home completely photo-less! So I would like to share a few of what I did manage to capture.
This was the view from our hotel room:
This is the moon rising during sunset (another view from the hotel room):
I had never been to Arizona, or any warm location before now. We’re the weird family who likes to go to cold destinations like Alaska and Iceland! Anyway, I had never before seen palm trees, orange trees or cacti out in their natural habitat. So of course, I had to have photos of some Arizona foliage!
This is a huge mirror sculpture located in the west lobby of the Phoenix Convention Center (where Imaging USA was held). That’s me on the steps taking the photo!:
Have a great weekend everyone!
