WPPI 2010 VEGAS!!

I am back from Vegas!  This year was especially memorable for me as I taught a Master class to some wonderful photographers from around the globe!  I must say, boy was I nervous, but I went in solely trusting that God had my back, and He did not fail me!  After my class, I had…

Priscilla - Hiya!!! just passing through… your photos, stories and adventures just keep getting better =) Just letting you know we’ve moved back from Moose Factory and into the town of Cobourg, ON (beautiful beach/places to shoot btw) Hope all is well! I can’t help notice that beautiful star necklace you have on in the photos (where did you get it??? i LOVE it!)

Manuella Pararas-Hulbert - Oh Silvana, you make me so wish I came to WPPI, its the 3rd year in a row that I had to miss it. I’m definitely not booking any weddings during WPPI next year and am going to go for sure. Love all your images and so nice to see pics of you, you’re lovely. Glad the class went well, I knew it would.

Mark - Congrats on having a class at WPPI, Silvana. :) When I saw your name on the schedule I really wanted to get down to hear you speak, but I wasn’t able to make Vegas this year. Probably just as well, since I’m allergic to tobacco!

Julie B - Silvanna,

I was so moved by your class at WPPI. Your love for your work, couples and God is incredible. I can not even put into words how much your talk meant to me. I want that deep connection with the couples, that love for them and their beautiful story. You reminded me of how important that is.

Your vision for your work is amazing. I love how you could take a simple looking hotel and turn it into something beautiful.
Thank you for sharing your heart. I believe God lead me to your class because it was exactly what I needed to hear. Thank you Thank you!

Also, I ended up with food poisoning this year. I’m so sorry to hear you had it last year. I ended up sick for a whole day! I do hope your eyes are feeling better now that you are home.

Thank you again for everything,

Julie

Jonathan Foster - Silvana, I just wanted to say that I really enjoyed your class, I wasn’t able to come tell you that in person because I had to run to my next appointment. You were actually my first Master Class to ever take! I think the extra time you took to share your testimony was extraordinary. I love it when we can be bold.

Silvana Frammartino - Thanks so much guys!
Randy – I mostly shot with my Nikon 45mm TS…love that lens!

March 11, 2010 - 11:20 am

Randy - Such beautiful images and a fresh perspective! I’ve spent so much time in Vegas that it’s hard to me to approach and see it this way, but I really enjoyed all your images. So sorry to hear about your sensitivity to the smoke. It’s something that really bothers me as well and I’m always glad to leave the ‘jing-jing-jing’ of the slot machines and the smoke.

I hate to be ‘that guy’, but I have to ask in the hopes that you’ll share. What lens did you use for this series? At first I thought it might be a tilt-shift, but then I later thought it might actually be a lensbaby!

home… We both wish you a speedy recovery. We’ll catch up soon.

That was the name of my seminar which I gave to local Toronto photographers on Feb. 23rd held at the Terrance Banquet Centre, and for my upcoming seminar at WPPI in Vegas.  What originally was supposed to be 30, turned out to almost 60!  I was humbled that so many actually wanted to hear what…
