If you are not familiar with The Pioneer Woman run don’t walk to her site.  Grab a box of tissues and some time.  Plan on going back to her site often.

For today go to the photography site and see the submissions from her assignment “Coming Home”.  Read the captions when Ree tells you to.  You’ll be moved.

OSP Indy 2010

May 20, 2010

bobbi of bobbi+mike posted on facebook that they would be speaking at OSP Indy.  I stalk bobbi so I registered for the event and booked my room at the Omni Severin Hotel.  The Omni was a perfect location for the event.

OSP Indy is a sharing and networking opportunity for photographers.  Speakers present on a variety of topics, breakout sessions with shooting opportunities, and a creative exercise round out the two day event.

A special thank you to Sara Parent and Mike Wise who organized the event this year.

bobbi’s presentation on “being yourself” was entertaining and inspiring.  I was flattered when shortly after bobbi started speaking she pointed to me in the crowd and commented on an email I had sent her.  That’s a blog post for another day.

I can now add Polina Osherov to my stalker list.  Uber talented fashion  & commercial photographer.

No post is complete without a photograph.  Here is one from the creative challenge.  We were split into three groups.  Each group was given a bucket and a list of 10 descriptive words.  The challenge was to capture the word and include the bucket in the shot.
