Last week I was blessed enough to be able to drive down to Savage. MD near Baltimore area in order to attend the last USA Fast Track Road Show led by Dane Sanders. As I arrived in the quiet neighborhood of Savage, heard the birds singing and notices the homes that remind me of southern hospitality with big white porches and American Flags, all you could hear were the birds and I turned towards the coolest looking building which is where Love Live Images Studio is located, Savage Mill, this was an old Mill that that have turned into a hip place for lots of artists, painters, restaurants and shopping areas. It was also the perfect place to photography with ancient ruins a cool railroad bridge and stream and also very cool red barns. This was my second Fast Track Road Show and I must say I think I need one of these every year, it was so refreshing and traveling for 3 days allowed me to look at certain aspects of my business, of my life and of me. The 20 some new photographer friends I met that inspire me, uplift me and feed my spirit just was the cherry on the top, it  was kind of a quiet group but all so sweet,humble, some shy, some bold, some tearful, some very reserved, some funny, and all talented beautiful human beings. I can not wait to see where these photographers go with their business and with their lives. We were especially blessed because the Fast Track Atlanta group sent us not only a hand made card with their picture and message on but they also sent us the book “Getting Things Done” which let me tell you is liberating, I am only on Chapter 3 but feel better about how I process the stuff in my life and I am ready for doing things and being who I want to be with flaws and all.So the first day of the workshop I arrived a little later and at ends day we decided to go to dinner together and as we were leaving, Dane asked me to be on www.askdane.com with special episode for Brazilian Photographers and I was like yes but inside was like OMG. The next day I was anxious for a few hours because I was not sure which topic we would cover and than luckily local FEO Leader Valdecir Carvalho and some other friends sent some great questions for us to start. As we started Dane did an introduction and I translated and then we realized no one could hear us, classic right, oh no! we restarted a bunch of times and luckily folks hung around and we were finally streaming live via Dane’s IPHONE, yes this is why Dane and I are like so close and squeezed, thanks to Courtney Reese for holding the phones for us and special thanks to all those who hung around. What I was really excited about was when Dane expressed interest in going to Brazil to do a workshop there, that would be amazing. Here are some behind the scenes pixs thanks to my new friends! here are sneaks, will post some more later and more on workshop.

Thanks To Joe, Mo, Jamie for the pixs!

Yes this is how we were streaming live, technology huh.

Today I realized that Dane interviews the top photographers like Mike Colon, Zach Arias, Jessica Claire and International photographers and it is a privilege to even be listed any way shape or form by these talented photogs that give me so much inspiration. Dane thank you for this opportunity and thank you for caring about my country and my people.

We did a slideshow for the Calgary Fast Track Group and you can watch it here-
