.wppi. {vegas baby}

so we had the mostest funnest trip ever!!! we went to wppi (wedding and portrait photographers international) in las vegas. basically it is a convention with photographers where you go to classes taught by some of the leading photographers in the industry and learn all sorts of awesome things to motivate and catapult our business to colossal levels of wonderous equivalence of lofty heights.

we went down with some of our bfff's the izatts, which made the trip a fafillion times funner. We went to some fun party's, hung out with tons of awesome people , ate lots of food and drank our entire suit case which contents were comprised soley of mt. dew.

what more could you ask for.

working it for anne ruthmann
the first night, party in a hotel room with some awesome people!
the the blues traveler concert with the abel's and the izatt's

shoot with ohana

rare photos of myself... to purchase prints please contact dustin:)


this guys car got stuck so i was helping out....
then i was working the hood.
dustin's mad lighting skills in the form of a self portrait
bicepts like this require a lot of hard work and dedication.

after dinner with the incredibly awesome gabriel and carlie ryan, emily faulkner, melissa kohler, amber burmeister, dustin and tiffany izatt, and the johnsons (aka us)
yes, i am a professional, and yes that is red eye.... but doesn't it remind you of that scene from taladaga nights: the ballad of ricky bobby.... red eye amuses me




we were all trying to figure out what eye we shoot out of.... i don't think anyone knew before very technical test.
this was on our way out of town... we are so tricky.

our glorious view of hooters from our room.

Josh says that he is not impressed by your attempts at facial hair and that you need to shave.

That looks like a blast! And I dont think you can go anywhere in Vegas and not have a few of Hooters! The question is did you eat there?

It was great meeting you in Vegas at the shoot in Primm. THe car shot makes me laugh still since you didn't want to help but went out cause they did and got stuck being the one doing the pushing

Fun pictures! I wanted to go this year but couldn't make the timing work. Maybe we'll see you there next year! :)

Also...that first photo...I love that you are in that squatting split position for HALF of all of the photos I've ever seen of you. :)
