Seattle was so much fun! I met new peeps (non-wedding photographers too), learned about other businesses, and caught a fish!

I hosted my wedding photography marketing workshop for various photographers at Grand Hyatt in Seattle. The view from the hotel was breathtaking! I was on the highest floor (30th) and I had a wonderful view of the water. Every morning I would trek down to Pike Place Market to see new things!
Workshop Attendees
Chris Waters – known as the “C” in JAC
Eternal Reflections Photography – spaghetti loving wedding photographers specializing in all things glamorous and fabulous
Jenny GG Photography – cool chick / cooler photog
Rockie Lee – Image Explorations dude
Candice Cunningham – octo-shot espresso camera-slingin’ photographer
Josh Thompson – Ventura photographer exploring Seattle for a day
Paula Wessels – need your website!
The very first Starbucuks in Pike Place!
I just had to seek it out! I even got their special bag of coffee beans. I can’t wait to get home to grind them – slurp!
I am a coffee fiend – yum!
Space Needle
Since I did not get to go to the top of the Space Needle, it only gives me an excuse to return to Seattle in the future. There is a restaurant at the very top! I wanted to eat there, but @bullysaurus and I arrived 2 minutes too late – ah boo!
New Friends
I must thank @SeattleMaven for all of the wonderful tour / food advices while in town. I even got a chance to meet her along with @moniguzman (blogger for Seattle PI) at Top Pot (a delicious donut place).
Ah – a social media tweet-up! Good times!
When I was at Top Pot, I could not resist the smell of the wonderful donuts, so I bought 4 dozen to Dane Sander’s Pictage talk that same evening…so delicious *salivating
So many wonderful places with so little time to visit them,

P.S. Rockie Lee invited me to speak for Image Explorations in Canada next year. I was honored and happy to do it. The only part that worried me was the fact that I’M OPENING ACT! For those of you who know me, I’m a bit of a recluse.

Hey, that’s my hood! The great thing about the first Starbucks is that they use the old manual machines rather than the newer computerized “dummy proof” ones. Glad to hear you enjoyed yourself.
You’ll have to go back to Seattle to go on the Underground tour. It’s hilarious!
Ahhh the space needle. I also haven’t been up it yet…but my hubby has and we have plans to eat there one day as well!
Is there a good way to keep up with you and where you are offering workshops and such?
REALLY enjoyed your workshop and even more so in meeting you! Look me up next time you venture up this way and we’ll totally caffenate together.
