For those of you wondering why I disappeared off the face of the earth for a week…. I was in Vegas for EIGHT days. It was an incredible trip! The week started with album judging where I served on panel of 10 international judges (1 of 5 selected from the United States.) This was quite an honor considering the convention had over 10,000 attendees!
My favorite albums of the comp are by Jerry Ghionis, Jim Garner. and the The Sallees. I also was a young gun – more information and photos to folllow! And finally, I had my Platform class on St. Pattys day. The class was a huge success with nearly 1000 people there. We even had people bringing in chairs from other classrooms. All and all a great trip!Below is a photo of three of my favorite people at wppi, Melisa Slater, Lori Nordstrom, and Deette Sallee.

I just got back from Los Angeles where I did a photo shoot with celebrity photographer, Greg Gorman. The main difference with this shoot was that I was actually the model…so fun!
It was an incredible experience being in front of the camera of one of the greatest photographers of our time. Above is a picture of Greg and me in his home. I will post some of the images from the shoot shortly.
