Viva Las Vegas!!
We arrived for the WPPI convention last Sunday at the Paris Hotel in Vegas…it was AWESOME!! The above pic was the pool/Eiffel Tower view from our room on the 10th floor. The convention was held in Bally's & the Paris Hotel but I was soooo glad we stayed at Paris, it was so nice and they had a ton of shopping and great restaurants. I took my dad with me on this trip (John had to work but definitely wanted to go!) and dad was the best tour guide ever…LOL…he's been there so many times for real estate seminars and conventions so he knew all of the best places to shop, eat, photograph, etc.
A lot of people don't know this but my dad actually got me into photography back when I was about 5 or 6 years old. He handed me his Minolta X-700 and I LOVED it…of course, it was a film camera so I couldn't wait to see the pics and now we're all totally spoiled with digital. It was so cool to be able to take him with me to WPPI. Who would've thought over 20 years later we'd be sitting in seminars together looking at amazing pictures and listening to some of the greatest photographers of all time speak on topics like luxury weddings, destination events and making a living by doing what you love. I'm the luckiest photographer ever! 🙂
(Self portrait in dad's sunglasses) 😀 Hey, what else do you shoot while standing in the taxi line?! LOL 
I loved, loved, LOVED the lighting at the Paris Hotel. Everything was SO ornate… 
And a couple of shots from the air, it almost looks like I'm in outer space going over the rockies in that shot. 🙂 Southwest should buy this as a stock shot…I loved the sky that day!
