Paper is Beautiful!

I happened across a blot this week, that combines two of my loves...weddings and paper.

Oh So Beautiful Paper-A Celebration of all Things Paper is a blog with a very clear mission. Best of all, it is a great resource for brides looking for something a little different in the world of wedding invitations. The blog has a gallery of real invitations as well as links to invitation designers and printers. I firmly believe that most people don't realize all the options available. OSBP solves that problem.

My favorite real invitation is a story book that contains all the information for the guests. I know the guests who received that book knew that the wedding wasn't to be missed! I can only imagine how amazing the wedding was if the couple put that much thought into the invitation.

Fancy Book Learning...Again!

While I'm not a big fan of traditional education, I do believe learning is important. I spend quite a bit of time at seminars, workshops and conventions. I feel this continuing education is a huge part of my success.

So, Monday, I had the pleasure of attending the WPPI Road Trip in Atlanta. It was a welcome chance to learn more about my business and craft from some amazing photographers. WPPI assembled some of the Who's Who of the photographic world to share their knowledge. I learn so much, and I'm even working on some new products and sessions. Stay tuned!

Best of all, I got to "road trip" with several wonderful Middle Georgia Photographers: Amanda and Jared Lindley, Christina Young, and Jenny Prater.

Special thanks to Jared for his expert driving. The trip home was quite memorable!
