I remember the day Jamie Delaine announced her DREAMERS photography workshop back in March. :) I called my mom and dad and literally freaked out! I was pumped! I had been following Jamie Delaine’s blog for months and I absolutely LOVE her work. Hearing about how she got started with her business at such a young age was a huge inspiration to me and definately helped to keep me motivated (most of the time…) starting out. Anywho… months past, life and work got busy, and June 6 crept up out of nowhere!  It was so great to meet you seventeen other incredibly talented and sweet women. I loved hanging out with you ladies and learning from each other. Oh boy. So many laughs. ;)

The workshop was located at Jamie Delaine’s studio in Fort Langley. (Her studio is incredble for the record! ) I was greeted by Jamie and found a seat. The tables had beautiful flower arrangements from Balconi Floral Designs, a Moleskine  journal, and a Mink Dark Chocolate Bar. Sooo yummy!! We then talked through everything under the sun from dreaming, branding, inspiration, marketing, networking, organization, outsourcing, to pricing strategies. After a delicious lunch catered by Wendel’s, we headed off to Derby Reach for a sample “model” shoot with Jamie’s friends Leanne and Sam. Let me tell ya… They are awesome! So much fun and an awesome couple! Oh man, I don’t know how they put up with having EIGHTEEN cameras in their face but they were incredible! So great. Here are a few shots I grabbed. PS. Shoot and posing credit goes to Jamie Delaine. :)Hehe… So great. Jamie teaching us how to use the back focus button… Leanne is gorgeous! Her hair and make-up was done by Kristy Lee. Leanne’s super cute headband is from peacelovevintageshop on etsy and her dress was purchased from H&M… Love that store! Soooo Twilight…Jamie and I were wearing matching TOMS. Awesome. Love it.   The night ended off with dinner at Beatnik’s Bistro… much better than watching the Canucks game Monday night! Ick! So yummy!
