A few weeks ago I had an amazing 4 day girls-only weekend in my favorite city – NYC!   There were 18 of us from all over the country (and a few from Canada) and the only thing we had in common (besides being professional photographers) was that all of us were PinkleToes workshops alumni.  Speaking of PinkleToes workshops – I am hosting a PinkleToes workshop in Ridgewood in exactly three weeks (June 11 through June 13) so if you are thinking about getting better at running a business of family and children photography, do yourself a favor and sign up for this workshop – there is only ONE spot left!  You can thank me later!:)  But I digress…

What a wonderful weekend it was!  We walked all over the city and did all things touristy (a lot of which I’ve never done before despite living here for 20 years!).  We ate out and ordered in; we took a food tour and a boat tour, we stayed up at night and laughed at the silliest things; we played games and came up with private jokes.  And we documented every moment of this weekend:)

There was LOTS of cameras everywhere:

and many photo ops:

There were amazing views at dusk:

There was posing with strangers:

And there were MANY amazing views of the city at night:

But my favorite part was wonderful memories and great friends that were made that weekend!  I am thrilled that I got to meet these ladies in person and looking forward to growing our friendships.  Seriously, how lucky am I to have a career that I LOVE and that allows me build lasting friendships with amazing people from all over the world!

You are in luck because this is a blog circle and you will be able to see images from ALL photographers I got to hang out with that weekend.  To follow the blog circle check out what Becky from Rebecca Keller Photography, an amazing raleigh newborn family photographer, captured.
