Kicking A$$ with [B]ecker, Baby!

So, a few weeks ago Brooke and I headed over to Calgary for a weekend of not only shopping, but networking and kicking A$$ with the one and only [B]ecker! We were definitely not disappointed; the workshop was informative, interesting and totally fun. It didn’t surprise me that [B]ecker was exactly as I’d thought he’d be from reading his blog and watching his [B] school video clips. I picked up a lot of good info, but most importantly confidence and inspiration. He made us realize that you don’t necessarily need to be the most incredible photographer around, as long as you’re darn good AND have a great personality. Well, I happily agree with that statement. I am proud of my work, I don’t by any means think I’m the most fantastic photog around, but I do think that I’m darned fun to work with! After a full day of learning, meeting new people in the industry, watching [B]ecker shoot and even getting few headshots taken by the man himself, we headed out for some greasy bites and had a great time. Thank you also to Rebecca of R Photographer for your very,very appreciated insights. Your honesty was maybe the best thing I took home with me.

Thanks again to all involved in pulling this together, and for the photographers reading this….if you haven’t done so yet; get your butts over to the [b] school blog and SIGN UP!!! It really is fab.

Thanks [B]ecker….you rocked!!!

 
These headshots were shot wide open on the very buttery 50mm 1.2…..I’d better start saving my pennies:)These next 2 are obviously poor quality, but seriously crack me up- the shirt says it all!!!
