One of my favorite things about being a part of this industry is my fellow photographers!  I’m lucky enough to be a part of a group of photographers that love to help each other!  What a blessing this has been for my life and my business!  People who should technically be my competition are my friends instead and that is an amazing thing!

This past Friday night I was privileged to attend a little Q and A night with Rebekah Hoyt and Abby Springman.  I was so excited to go hang out with these two that I tacked it on to the end of my Greek Staff Conference trip.  I woke up that morning in Orlando, flew into Richmond, and drove to Northern Virginia for this event.  And I’m so glad I did!  I got to meet so may fun new friends!

Rebekah and Abby were gracious hosts and teachers.  Any question that was asked was immediately answered in detail and with enthusiasm!  They truly desire to share the knowledge they’ve built up over the years and to encourage us in our own businesses.  It was evident that their love for the Lord is the heartbeat of all that they do and it was such a blessing to get to learn from them!  Abby and Rebekah, thanks for giving your time, talent and energy to this!!  And thanks to Matt Hoyt for taking these pictures and to Rebekah for letting me blog them 🙂

This is my new friend Mary of Mary Neumann Photography!  Doesn’t she have such a pretty smile?!  I’m so excited to start following her work in Lancaster, Pennsylvania!!Please excuse my desperate need for a haircut…Rebecca and Abby doing their thing… Chelsea and Mary taking good notes!Apparently I thought something was funny!

Thanks again you two!!
