It's been two months since my last blog post and I am a little embarrassed that I have let myself get so far behind. Traveling can have that effect on me and fortunately I've gotten to travel a lot in the recent weeks! The first trip was for this incredible photo workshop with Doug Gordon (a posing and business genius) that was a week long in Lindenhurst, NY. I met a bunch of great photographers from all over the country and world, learned a lot of new things from Doug and his awesome team, and had a really fun week in a new city! It was my first time to New York and I was not disappointed. And...I may or may not have 'almost' won a car bomb competition with Vinnie on our last night out together. ;-)
We didn't do a ton of shooting at this particular workshop, but we did have a few great opportunities to see Doug's method of shooting, lighting, and flow posing at work. It's always hard for me to photograph in large groups, like in a photography workshop situation. I usually end up feeling claustrophobic and I am not a fan of having to fight for a spot to shoot from. (I would make a terrible paparazzi!!). But I managed to get a decent spot for a few seconds each time. Here are a few of my favorites from the week. If there are any photographers out there considering this workshop, I give it 5 stars, two thumbs up, and a definite high recommend! :-)
