Well, now that I have your attention from my title I wanted to post a quick blog to express some emotions from my last trip.
I have been fortunate enough to be a part of two on location workshops lead by Chris Hurtt and Robert La Follette. Not only are these workshops taught brilliantly, they are lead by two of the greatest instructors and photographers I've ever had the pleasure of learning from. It seems that the more I travel and the more people I meet I am realizing how important it is to get out in the world, take a chance and do something that takes you away from the normal. When I left for my first workshop I wasn't exactly comfortable leaving home and flying somewhere to meet 10 people I've never seen before, but pushing through the nervousness and just doing it has taught me a lot. After completing my second workshop I am realizing even more that traveling the country, and world, and meeting new people is part my passion. Every time I return with hilarious memories from my travels I understand how important it is to experience the world and meet as many people as I can. So, what is the secret of life? I have no clue, but I do know that traveling the world, meeting new people, and experience in and of itself is a part of the secret!
