In November, I had the opportunity to attend the Jasmine Star Workshop ...after logging into Paypal as fast as I could so it wouldn't be sold out by the time I clicked "buy now"! Anyways, it was a fabulous experience. Would you expect anything different from Jasmine Star?! She is the branding queen. If you want a workshop on hardcore branding, GO. If you want to learn how to shoot your camera, this isn't the workshop for you. But it was *just* what I had been looking for as far as a branding seminar is concerned. I want to push my business forward to that next level. And I'm glad I went. And for all of you wondering if Jasmine is as true and real as she appears to be on her blog? The answer is YES YES YES! Honestly, what made the workshop that even *that* much better, is the fact that Jasmine and J.D. (and mama) were so incredibly kind, warm, inviting people...not to mention HUMBLE. Who wouldn't want to learn from people like that, right?! I think the whole room felt like one big family for the day! So thank you Jasmine for taking the time to be real and share your knowledge as it relates to our industry.
Towards the end of the workshop, we all had an opportunity to watch Jasmine shoot. She does a outstanding job directing her clients and showing them *exactly* where she wants them.
Now this is where I displayed some serious self-control. I told myself I wasn't going to touch one of these gorgeous shots until after ever client image was edited for the year! And for the first time possibly, my will-power won!! I waited...even though I saw that magical file on my desktop every day labeled "Jasmine *"! And for all you photogs, I made a commitment to myself that I would not shoot over 2.0. And I am now in love with any aperture under 2.0!
Our gorgeous models for the day were the precious Ashley Rose and her husband. And check out how gorgeous they look together...
So without further ado, here is some eye candy for ya! These were my favorites from the day...
Dress: Vera Wang
Makeup and Hair: The super talented Vivian Tran of All Made Up
Floral Pieces: By the fabulous artist Lauryl Lane
Thanks for a fabulous day, and I hope our paths cross again!-m

BEAUTIFUL PICS, but I have a question. Did you do the shooting or just the editing? Was the couple just modeling. Still a little confused, but what a beautiful couple (dress, though her shoes look mighty uncomfortable! :) )
