WPPI 2009 – Vegas Recap!

Amber and I spent the past 7 days in Las Vegas for the annual WPPI convention and here’s our recap! ***Warning…most of these are bad self-portraits or random pictures of each other that belong on facebook rather than our blog!***


We spent most of the time networking and meeting new and amazing people including Chelsea and Jayse from Las Vegas who joined me on the last shoot I just blogged. Here are a couple shots Amber grabbed of me on that same shoot:

On Thursday night we went out and caught the amazing show LOVE which seriously blew our friggin’ minds…it was incredible. Here’s a quick shot at I grabbed at the end when no one was watching:

The next day we walked the strip and hit the forum shops for some gifts for the kids:

But we did end the night at dinner at Nobu…one of our ultimate faves in the restaurant department of life. Here’s our personal sushi chef we had for the evening slaving on our scrumptious live scallops.

And then it was the red eye flight from Vegas to JFK. I DEFINITELY don’t recommend doing that unless you can get into first class….which we tried but it was full…oh well….lesson learned. But the drool on my shoulder from the random dude sitting next to me was totally rad.
