Well Im back from WPPI, and I have to say... my feet, and calves hurt something awful!
I wanted to thank all of those who came out to my Platform presentation. I didn't expect such a large turnout for an evening program, so I was sad, and shocked when the fire marshell came to make all those who had to sit on the floor leave. I heard of a few exchanges that took place outside the room (and two managed to get back in!), and the folks at WPPI did ask me to do an encore program....but since I was already scheduled to speak at the tradeshow for the entire week.. I had to decline...so I am not sure if many knew that.
With that said.. Im pleased, it was great meeting so many different photographers from across the globe who came to see me! That was literally the best part. I was asked if I would do it again next year....and it is still up in the air. Im not one to lecture to anyone. Totally not my personality, or style and those who went to my Platform Program heard how important it is to me to stay true to myself, and my personality! I would much prefer to sit down with everyone in a circle.....and talk shop! Because it isn't about me.....talking about me...etc (which is why I don't like lectures!)...but rather about you...and how to be a better you.
Hmmm.. maybe I need to brainstorm with WPPI to come up with a new program style.....
Will be back to posting pictures in the next day or so! |
