Leaving LasVegas

I am back in the studio after a number of days in Vegas attending my sixth WPPI convention. I have hundreds of thoughts and inspirations I am trying to get my head around. They will be the topics of many discusions here in the weeks to come I am sure.

My favorite part of WPPI or really any convention are those conversations had away from the lecture halls or floor of the trade show. (Actually, I had a great conversation with a talented photographer and friend on the floor of the trade show right before I said good bye to WPPI.) I love those discussions that challenge us to reevaluate why and how we create. I am thankful for those who understand the true rewards and struggles of being a creative individual. Most of all, I feel blessed by those who share their passion and allow me see how beautiful they are.

While I have left WPPI behind for another year, I don’t want to leave to spirit of what brought me closer to so many wonderful people behind. My goals leaving Vegas are many, but perhaps none so important as creating meaning in life. For those leaving LasVegas (or those who did not make it), I challenge you (and myself) to make sharing and pushing each other creatively more than an event that occurs four days a year. I truly believe that together we are stronger and can reach further for our dreams.
