Saddleback OC Photo Summit

Today was the Saddleback OC Photo Summit in Lake Forest. Guest speakers included Jennifer Wu (fine art and nature photographer), Jasmine Star (wedding photographer), Piper Mackay (world, wildlife and cultural photographer) and Kristi Sutton Elias (fine art portrait photographer). The afternoon session included hands on workshops with shooting zones. There were five different workshops to choose from and I decided to go to the action and event photography with Chris Ortiz because I wanted to learn how to shoot moving objects. I don't picture myself as being an action photographer but it turned out to be pretty fun capturing the skaters in action. Keep a look out for the next Photo Summit at Saddleback!

A Trip to the LA Printers Fair

The annual LA Printers Fair happened last weekend in Carson, California at the International Printing Museum. I volunteered to work the admissions station and was given the 1-4p.m. time slot. Thinking the crowd would dwindle down by then because the fair was scheduled to end at 4p.m. – oh boy was I wrong! Visitors continued to make their way to the fair up until three-thirty! I was also surprised to see quiet a few people I know come by...well maybe not so surprising because those that I knew who came by were all designers. All in all it was a delightful experience and the people I talked to were a pleasure to work with. I took home a few gorgeous hand lettering cards as well. Until next time!
