First of all, an update on the 30 Strangers. If you left a comment and are waiting to hear from me, sorry to keep you hanging. I went to Las Vegas last week and was hoping to get everything sorted out before I left. That didn’t happen, and while I was in Vegas, access to email was extremely limited. I mean, I may as well have been without electricity. In the hotel, I paid the 10 dollars a day for internet but the signal was so weak I could hardly send an email before the sucker timed out.
So, hang tight on that. I’m home now, so we’ll get that straightened out very soon.
Vegas. My wife and I went there for WPPI. It’s a convention for wedding and portrait photographers. 12,000 attended. Sometimes, it seems like there are that many wedding photographers here in Provo. Maybe there are that many. Who knows. And so, for the last few days, we’ve been meeting new people and saying hello to old friends. We got up early and stayed up late. Fun, yes, but also exhausting. It’s good to be home.
We were supposed to come home yesterday, but I was riding my son’s scooter, trying to chase him. He was on another scooter. I fell down on the cement, and on the way down, somehow jacked my foot. I think I smashed it into the scooter on the way down. In any case, I couldn’t walk on it, so we decided to stay another night in St. George. (Truth is, I find every excuse I can to stay as long as I can down there.) This morning I woke up and my foot was nearly as good as new.
So we packed up the car and drove back to Provo. We got here about 45 minutes before I had an engagement session scheduled. I’ll post them soon. Cute couple. You’ll like them. They’re in love and they can hardly stop smiling. Before I left St. George I sent out a Tweet and asked if anyone wanted to help me out on the shoot. To my great fortune, Mindy Gledhill said she could help me out. Great thing about that, is I’ve been wanting to meet Mindy, so it turned out just perfect. And just as I suspected, Mindy is charming, charming.
I’ve got a quite a few things to post on the blog over the next week, so stay tuned. Mostly, I just wanted to say I’m back from Vegas and I’ll get going on the 30 Strangers.
And now, Mindy Gledhill.

Don’t wait up. I’m headed to Vegas. Every year, there is a trade show and convention for wedding and portrait photographers. It’s called WPPI. I love being there and meeting other photographers doing great work and meeting with vendors that can help us make our business better and increase our service to our clients. This year, the keynote speaker is Gregory Heisler. This year, WPPI is legit.
Suitcases are packed. I just need to put them in the car, right after I make this post. Then, I’m hitting the road.
Update on the 30 Strangers. If you haven’t already put your name on the list, you have until midnight tonight. Tomorrow morning we’ll randomly select the participants and send an email to confirm the date we’d like to photograph you. Thanks to everyone that expressed an interest.
And now, Vegas, baby.

After the WPPI convention in Vegas (huge trade show for wedding and portrait photographers) I spent a couple hours walking around. Now, I’m back home.

Amy and I are leaving for Vegas today. We’re going to be attending WPPI. It’s a big convention for wedding and portrait photographers.
See you in a while. Don’t wait up.
