Inspire me

You know how every now and then you just get to do something really cool? Not because you really deserve it....or even that you meet the required skill level......but you just manage to bluff your way in to play with the big kids?

That was me last week. I managed to scam my way into a photography course on the Gold Coast with 4 big name photographers -
1. Nichole Van - an amazing child and family photographer
2. Zach Arias - of 'one light' fame
3. Joey L - who shot the pics for the Twilight movie posters and does shoots for people like the Jonas Brothers (this had far more impact on my daughter than me - but I understand the importance LOL)
4. Andrea Joki - who provided one on one mentoring.

We spent a day being moulded by each and getting to do all sorts of cool stuff that I just never would have had a go at before.
So. Onward and upward. I CAN do this!

and some quick shots from the various days :)
