Wasssssssuppppppp?! :D Ok. That was kinda lame. But you know what isn't lame?? WPPI!! Every year, the worlds largest photo convention is held in Las Vegas, NV. It's a place to learn, meet people, and just have a good time! This year I went with the goal to learn more about the business side of photography. Don't get me wrong, I went to my favorite photographer's class about lighting. But I wanted to get more information about the other side.... the dark side of this fabulous art.
The main thing I learned this year was change. I need to change the way I sale, the way I talk, and the way I present myself. With that being said, BIG changes are coming to SDP. :D I'm going to be changing how I offer my products, *cough* digital files *cough*. I'm also going to be changing the way I present my work to the public. We'll just have to see how the next few months pan out.
But that's enough on what I plan on doing... Here are the images from my trip! We had a great time and the beds at the MGM.... HEAVENLY!!
This is the view from our room on the 9th floor of the MGM Grand.

Danicka Patrick and Tony Stewart were in town, so all the NASCAR fans had to catch a glimpse of the racers.
