My very first workshop of the year..

Education has been always very important for me; I'm learning new techniques or just improving what I already know. Being a professional wedding and portrait photographer is more then having a great digital camera. It's way more complex and wonderful! As you know, my very good friend Rodolfo Arpia and my new dear friend Sergio, the photographer from Arizona, team up to give a two day workshop In 100% in Spanish. I have a lot of respect for Rodolfo and Sergio. Each day of the workshop was super long. I am not kidding you; 12 hours a day and it just keep going and going. In the workshop there where nine other photographers, besides me, that attended. They came from Spain, Arizona, Texas and of course California. I was sad when we finished, but happy to gain all this new information that I am using as we speak. I want to thank my dear colleagues, Alma Beltran, Cayupe, Karen Savignon, Miguel Mayo, Rene Miranda, Sergio Angon, Jose Luis Melgar, Jorge Flores and to Antonio Garcia who flew from Spain to be here with all of Us. Special Thanks to Foro de Fotografos for giving me the opportunity to meet such a wonderful people.
