As you may have already heard in one of our previous posts, Jennie and I had the great fortune fortune of attending Mystic 5.  A photographers dream, specifically a wedding photographers dream, the event taught us a lot.  We also had the opportunity to hang with our Strawberry Road friend, Brad Smith, of Brad Smith Photography.  Just days before the conference, the wheels started turning and we’d decided a little hookie from the conferences might be a nice idea.  So what did we do, we lined up a gorgeous model and challenged ourselves to a time restrained high speed fashion/boudoir shoot.  Jennie and I shot with no real theme in mind except to get great images that captured the attitude and beauty of our model Sarah…        

Wow.  Mystic 5.  It’s over, it was amazing.  When my partner Jennie mentioned the conference months ago, I read through the itinerary and saw only one name, Joe McNally.  He was the reason I had signed on to go.  He’s been a hero of mine for quite awhile.  A veteran who’s shot the world and done it beautifully.  Now I’m ashamed to say that he was the only real reason I signed up.  The list of photographers that spoke at the event were a veritable who’s who of wedding photography.  I hesitate to list any of their names here because I would be remiss if I were to accidentally omit even a single one.  So instead of singing the praises of each individual photographer or company, I will convey to you what the broad brush stroke of the event left indelibly etched into my soul… Each photographer or photography team
