On the way there I stopped in to see my dad who's in a really cool adult living complex that's more like living on a cruise ship there are so many ammenities!! My dad's a dancer and everyone knows him.... especially the ladies. He dances 4-5 times a week. Goes to an exercise class. Plays in a pool tournament. Ping Pong, and more. You get the idea! Oh and at 86 years old he delivers Meals on Wheels to "the older people" He's a great inspiration and I'm glad I got so many of his genes. Most good, some bad. I got his love of people, his patience, work ethic and love of life. On the bad side I also got his bad knees and bad back. I think I came out way ahead with the balance of good and bad.... Hope I got the longevity thing too!<br /><br />After seeing my dad and doing my program it was off to sin city, Las Vegas where I attended a 3 day photography seminar. Learned a bunch there! Then last Tuesday night got even more infomation at our local Arizona Professional Photographers Association meeting from a great local destinantion wedding photographer named Jefferson Todd. I can't wait to implement these new ideas!! Which is good for you if you are looking for a wedding photographer who's ready to go work for you, wherever in the world you want to tie the knot. JT gave me the great idea that the pre wedding shoot could happen anywhere in the world. Want to go to the place you met? Have a vacation spot you want to see? Let's all go together!! Also we can spend a day photographing you at your honeymoon destination. Way cool to capture all the memories. I'll close on this post but will be shaing some images I'm working on from my dad, a wedding album and some travels.....Bobhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17967679767440407966noreply@blogger.com
