WPPI left me changed.

That sounds terribly cliche’ doesn’t it? It’s so crazily true though. I went with low expectations and returned home a different person. A different artist, business owner, dreamer, entrepreneur. I feel confident and alive. I feel loved and connected and energized. I feel tired and fearful and overwhelmed. I love feeling all of this.

I just watched Jasmine’s video again (which I saw once at WPPI) and I’m all weepy. I know this is partially due to the music and the lack of sleep I’ve had, but mainly … mainly this is due to the energy I feel as a human being, a photographer and a teacher. I am so excited with the energy that is behind my business. It rests in me and now thanks to WPPI it rests in other photographers (and industry leaders) who have a desire to support and help. I am SO excited to share this with you all in the next few months. Stay tuned!

I most definitely want to share here a bit of how I was inspired and challenged at WPPI, but I need just a day or two (or 5) to rest up and process.

zzzzzzzzzzzz …

p.s. the picture above is of my WPPI partner in crime, Kelly. I’ll be sorting through photos I took of her and our other roomie, Amber (who forced us to get the absolute most out of WPPI), soon!

    I told you I would sue you if you posted a picture of me on here. I meant it! :)

    It really was a truly inspiring few days. Now I just need to dig in and make some changes around here.

    Jessica–
    What a blessing it was to connect at wppi! Your words you wrote were exactly how I came home feeling! I learned so much and came home with a new confidence, excitement & knowledge that I am doing what I’m meant to be doing! :) I hope I can make it again in future years, but I can’t imagine it ever being any better than this year. . .it seriously impacted my life more than I ever anticipated. I’m so thankful to have met you and hope we can connect again in the future! Hugs, Kristin
