One of the things on my "to do" list this year is to attend great photography workshops. What better way to get started than to attend Jasmine Star's first workshop! I didn't even think I'd get to go. When I saw the announcement on her blog I thought to myself, "I probably won't even make it to the waiting list, but I guess I could try." When I got the email from her saying that I was on the list to register I was jumping up and down like a teenager that just got front row tickets to her favorite band!

I was really nervous at first when the day of the workshop arrived. I'd never been to a workshop before. Genius me...I picked Jasmine's workshop as my first! It felt like when my parents made us move and I started 8th grade at a brand new school. I didn't know what to expect and all these what if's kept running through my head. Was I cool enough? LOL!

The workshop lasted from 9AM to 7PM. Sounds like a long time huh? Let me just say that I never got bored! Not once! When I met Jasmine she didn't just greet me with a handshake and a "Hello, welcome to the workshop." She greeted me and everyone else that arrived with a great big smile, a friendly hug, and a genuine appreciation for coming to her workshop. I'm so glad that I got to go to this event. She was so open and honest with the knowledge she shared. I learned so much more than I ever thought I would. The other photographers that attended were so amazing and so much fun! We even had a photoshoot with a fabulous couple! I hope you enjoy!
