PPA Blog 5

PPA came to an end On Wednesday Jan 13th 2010. I left Nashville, TN with a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction. I am very proud to say I volunteer for one of the most influential organizations in the world when it comes to photography, and did so with great happiness. I made so many friends along the way, shared with them my ideas, hopes, dreams, and many inspirational experiences. I never thought I would learn so much in 5 days from so many strangers but I did.

All this time I thought I knew who I was as a photographer, however I have learned that a photographer evolves with time. I think I have evolved into a more matured and conscious individual; an individual that has too many ideas to handle at once and must prioritize.

I showed my new friends from PPA (Professional Photographers of America)some of my images and kept hearing from them that I would be an awesome advertisement photographer. I came to the conclusion that I love to make people look good - is that bad? I love it when a client look at his/her images and tell me how much they love them, or tell me that "they cannot believe its them". I love how my images make others happy. I think that everyone is "beautiful" and that it is our job as photographers to bring that out on all our clients.

I am definitely a Wedding and portrait photographer. I love photographing brides, I love photographing people, and most of all I love to go beyond my client's expectations.
