First of all, let me tell how excited I am to be here. Here? you might ask - well - I am in Nashville, Tennesse. Yep, Nashville Tenesse. I am here for the Professional Photographers of America convention - Imaging USA. I had planned the trip a few months ago, but as you may know things happen, and I had decided to cancel my trip UNTIL last night. A very sweet lady and an even better photographer "Elena" contacted me, and here I am. Booked my flight, and room at 1:00 am this morning, got on the first plane out, got here at 9:02 am, and here I am in my room trying to blog- YAY!!!
The PPA convention is being held at the Gaylord Opryland Resort & Convention (headquarters) this year and let me tell you - it is awesome! IT IS COLD! I am not going to lie, and my room is not warm; I am actually freezing but let me not tell you about that. Let me tell you instead why I am here. I am here 'cause "this is the place to be" if you are a professional photographer and/or want to be one. There are going to be many classes throughout this week. All the classes concentrate in of course Photography. But the best part is that I get to see all my photographer friends..... YAY!!! Among the many amazing and Master photographers I will be meeting during this week are - my idol - Jerry Ghionis (yay), my other idol- Yervant (yay), Elena Hernandez (yay), I already saw Mr. Rodney Bailey himself (awesome guy), and many many more.
This is the first time away from home without my other half, so I will be blogging a lot. Come back to check out all my adventures. See you soon.... PPA here I come.....
