Allison Watkins cont.

I promised images for y'all...so here they are! Check out her blog too for the nice words she had to say about us :)

Allison Watkins..WOW

Did you miss it? Man if you did, you REALLY missed it! Not to rub it in to those who didn't attend Allison's SNAP and seminar but you should have been there.
The SNAP on Monday was truly magical! Allison photographed two families, in the rain, and came out with the most gorgeous images! I will post them soon.
It was awesome to see her work her magic with the kids and put them under her spell.
I know that we all learned so much...especially those of us who went to dinner afterwards...mmmmm hot chocolate and cheesecake :)

Tuesday night was just as great! Talk about putting us all in check with our priorities. I know I look at things differently now. If you didn't come, sit down with someone who did and have a little chat about it. You might hear the answer to what you have been searching for.

Thank you Allison!

Listen up!

There is so much to celebrate!!! Did you hear? We have NEW members to our family!
First to announce is Jason and Beth Aten's new little one...Madison Ruth.

And our second new member...Kate Lyn Jarmosco...daughter to Juliet and Daryl Jarmosco. She was born August 4th and was 9lbs and 2oz. She came quick...something like 3 hours...don't tell Beth that :) They are now the proud parents of 4 children! Congratulations to you both!

A few random things

Hey everyone!
First I wanted to double check and make sure we will see you at the picnic...I hope everyone is going to come hungry because the dessert competition is always worth starving yourself for the day. :) We will see who wins this year!

Second, if you are signed up for SNAP with Allison Watkins next month make sure you know that the time is from 2 to 7:30ish and we are meeting at P2 in Old Town Lansing.
So make sure you line up that babysitter for later in the day. You don't want to miss anything Allison has in store for you.

Third and lastly, take a day off or go home early soon...you work too hard!

SNAP with Andrew Jenkins

SNAP #3 with Andrew was great! Thank you to all of you who attended. I have to admit, Andrew was a little nervous about the weather before SNAP started. It was forcast to rain all day. And since we had 13 people here, he was trying to figure out how he was going to entertain all of you crammed inside all day. But, we were blessed, the clouds parted and we fit in our downtown, loft and garden shoot all before the rain came. We had two great models who we would like to thank! They did a great job working in the heat all day! Here are some images and a show of the images we took from that day!

David Jay! What a night!

Thank you to all of you who came out for the first stop on PPM's ON TOUR! We had David Jay as our speaker and he was fantastic! From what I'm hearing from all of you, is that it was a life changing seminar and that you came away inspired and ready to work on your businesses!
A very special thank you to David Jay who continues to help photographers all over the world. Thank you for your amazing heart and devotion to this industry!

Have you signed up yet? David Jay

If you haven't signed up for the PPM on Tour meeting for July 14th...YOU NEED TO!
The deadline for signing up for dinner or golf is the 7th! The program is free and you can just show up...but if you want to let us know your coming that would be great too :)

Just a little about about our speaker: David Jay
Now, those of you who know me.. know that I really like David Jay. You also know that I'm really excited that he is coming here to speak. But, what you may not know is that he deserves every bit of what he has earned. He is a great speaker, talented photographer, has a great philosophy on life and business, and has influenced a lot of people for the good. He has put himself out there to help photographers get their lives back and create businesses that work for them. (not being enslaved to your business)
We are blessed to have him speak to us and I know that you will leave feeling empowered and lifted up!
I'll see you Monday, July the 14th!
