She was the hostess in this AMAZING home on the bluff in Mendocino. \u00a0You have to drive through the headlands to get to the house, there\u2019s a hot tub overlooking the ocean\u2026.. sigh\u2026. can I go back??<\/p>\n<p>I arrived, was greeted by Melody, Michele, and her family. \u00a0It felt like I had popped in to a friend\u2019s house. \u00a0I knew that this weekend would be something special the minute I met them. \u00a0I was right.<\/p>\n<p>The first day, we talked and talked\u2026 learned and asked questions, and learned more.<\/p>\n<p>Saturday started with an amazing newborn shoot. \u00a0Michele let us see and participate in her process of documenting a beautiful new life. \u00a0That evening, we left the fog to visit a family and do a lifestyle shoot. \u00a0Loved the light up there\u2026. Glowing, gorgeous light. \u00a0Lit this family spectacularly, we were so blessed to see their love and their light. \u00a0And that evening, we were treated to fresh Salmon from a friend of our hostess\u2026.. You haven\u2019t lived if you haven\u2019t had salmon that fresh and amazing\u2026.<\/p>\n<p>Sunday, we got up early and went into town and onto the bluffs for our maternity session. \u00a0Gorgeous. \u00a0The glow of new life made up for the fog!<\/p>\n<p>More learning, editing, watching a pro work. \u00a0I am still swimming in the learning even though it is two months later. \u00a0What an experience.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks Michele and Melody. \u00a0Pure Light Photography wouldn\u2019t be here without you.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s Michele\u2019s blog post about our weekend:\u00a0http:\/\/pinkletoesblogstalker.com\/blog\/mendocino-california-lifestyle-photography-workshop-texas-australia\/ \u00a0Check it out!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; The singular BEST business investment I have ever made (ok, maybe the full-frame camera comes close). \u00a0Even though I am just starting out, I learned so much from Michele, Melody, and Kari at this workshop. \u00a0I had an opportunity to explore the lifestyle genre, learn business strategies, workflow management, editing, etc. \u00a0My business has [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"gallery","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8","post","type-post","status-publish","format-gallery","hentry","category-uncategorized","post_format-post-format-gallery"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.purelightphotography.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.purelightphotography.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.purelightphotography.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.purelightphotography.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.purelightphotography.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.purelightphotography.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":972,"href":"https:\/\/www.purelightphotography.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8\/revisions\/972"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.purelightphotography.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.purelightphotography.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.purelightphotography.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
