Sometimes I'm really bad at blogging sessions that I shoot for fun or at workshops. This blog is about one of them :P Last August, I attended the Illuminate Gathering workshop at the drop dead gorgeous Mooreland Mansion in Lakeland, Ohio, on the outskirts of Cleveland. I used to shoot a LOT of film in my college days, but unfortunately don't shoot it now as often as I'd like. This workshop too me back to my film days, as there was a strong focus on film. There were so many photographers that incorporate shooting film into their photography business and it was so inspiring to be around that type of energy and attention to detail and technique. I also met so many wonderful people during the workshop and was introduced to some wonderful wedding vendors the Cleveland area has to offer. Ironically, I also got to work closely with a few of my Youngstown photographer friends since quite a few of us attended the workshop - which made me so happy! Here are some of my favorite shots from the day...
