Well, the fun started last Sunday evening at when a bunch of photographers got together for a little BBQ at the Wiebners since John Michael and Dalisa Cooper were coming as part of their ALTF roadtrip. We stayed for a few hours and then went to Krisha’s studio for a little Guitar Hero.
The next morning, we headed back to the Weibners for the workshop. I always enjoy watching John speak. He is truly one of a kind. I admire his spontaneity and creativeness all the time. JMC and Dalisa are also doing a project called Pay it Forward. They are shooting family portraits of photographers and their families for free. It is something so special for me because I am never in my family photos. This is pretty much why they are doing it, because we are always behind the camera.. So, Tony, myself, Braden and Kobe were photographed on Tuesday as part of Pay it Forward. The only stipulation of the shoot was, we have to continue to Pay it Forward to another photographer and their family and thus, they do the same. The point is for it eventually to come around full circle.
So, if you are a photographer, and want a family portrait done, please email me!
