last week-end i traveled to napa valley, ca to attend a photography retreat with other photographers from around the country.  napcp  (national association of professional child photographers) is an association that i feel so lucky to be a part of.  it was  wonderful time.  i left feeling relaxed, inspired and so blessed to be part of an industry that is filled with so many wonderful individuals.  it is so great to go to a retreat and not only learn, but leave with many new friendships (old and new) which will last forever.  while we were there, we had the opportunity to take photos of what i think were some of the most beautiful children.  i know their parents will never read this post, but i could not get over how sweet and polite these children were. i met such lovely children and families and it only reaffirms why i love my job so much.  i have to admit, i am a bit envious of all you napa photographers who have scenery like you will see below, which you get to use to photograph.  (whine and sigh…)  :)  here are a few of my favorites.

photographers AND parents, please take a peek at the napcp webpage.  http://www.napcp.com/blog.php/
