Last night was our monthly CNY PUG (Pictage User Group) meeting for professional photographers! Unfortunately a few of our members couldn’t make it due to little life events, like oh going to have a baby any day now, dogs in surgery, sick kids, and jetting off to Florida… you know who you are :) Luckily for the rest of us, it was a super informative meeting as well as being loads of fun… oh hello Dash Riprock. We wanted to give a big GIANT THANK YOU to Kevin Kubota and the amazing PR Princess Wendi at Kubota Images for donating our fantastic door prize. The uber fab Laure Lillie was this month’s door prize winner, and the rest of us are delighted with our coupons. As you can clearly see below…

A big thank you to everyone for making those long wintery drives to be here last night! xoxo, Alice

This morning my sister Beth (aka my newly anointed studio manager) and I hopped on a jet (blue that is) to New Orleans. We are here to attend the Pictage Partner Conference; and let me tell you, we are beyond excited! If you are going to be there, drop us a line and let’s get together!

There will be three days of amazing presentations by some of the industry’s top photographers, shooting workshops, and tons of “networking” (reads having fun). The coolest part of all, is on Thursday afternoon, we will be involved with a charitable event. All of the volunteers will be working with and photographing a total of 200 local family portraits. You see, these particular families lost most if not all of their family photos to the terror that was known as Katrina. While we can never replace those lost treasures, we can help with the healing by creating some new family memories.

If that isn’t enough, we have a free F-U-N day on Friday!

it’s going to be a good night {tonight}

October 6th is a big day/night for me. I’ve been counting down to it. Why? Well, it’s very exciting…

As a longtime member of the Pictage community, I am so happy to announce that I have started a local Pictage User Group (aka PUG) in Central New York. If you are not familiar with Pictage, it is the awesome online service lab for professional photographers everywhere. Exciting right? Well, it gets even better! Justin and Mary Marantz, wedding and portrait photographers extraordinaire, are driving their Mini Cooper all the way from Connecticut to present their super awesome program: Creating Loyalty Beyond Reason.

This meeting is tonight: Tuesday October 6th at 7:30 pm in Baldwinsville, NY. Please come if you can!
